The Sunset Soiree exercise classes are available for both locals and guests atop The Roosevelt New Orleans’ rooftop pool deck overlooking beautiful views of the Crescent City.

“We are excited to partner with The Roosevelt New Orleans, A Waldorf Astoria Hotel again for this series,” said April Dupre, wellness coach and founder, Footprints To Fitness. “It’s a spectacular setting for our classes, to not only encourage our students on their own health and fitness journeys but also to raise funds for our foundation which brings critically needed health and wellness programming to people who might otherwise not be able to afford it.”

Options will include blue crab & avocado toast, fried shrimp & green tomatoes, Caesar salad, French Market salad, an Angus cheddar burger and a Beyond vegan burger.
