Sandy City, UT Indoor Activities

Jump 'N Bounce hosts frolickers in an inflatable Shangri-la, where they can bound, caper, leap, and gambol about. Passes afford families the opportunity to achieve collective effervescence while promoting healthy play styles for children in the gravity-defying play area. Tykes and ebullient adults alike can wobbly-walk and soar throughout the facility, filled with bouncers, obstacle courses, enormous slides, and other kid-friendly playground equipment. Should the testing of children's buoyancy get exhausting, weary parents can take their kids to refuel at the connected food court, which provides welcome respite from constant reminders not to double-jump unsuspecting bouncers. Party packages combine both food and play for up to 20 guests and a birthday child with themed party rooms including an Ocean room, Castle room, and Space Odyssey.

Utah Salsa's instructors orchestrate explosive Latin dance events in Salt Lake City, ranging from classes to heated competitions to salsa dance nights, which are backed by live beats. Weekly salsa classes introduce newcomers to the fleet-footed art and provide longtimers a venue to showcase their moves. For those with a bit of experience underfoot, the biweekly bachata sessions elucidate the scandalously intimate dance, which is most commonly performed during corporate icebreakers. The enthusiastic instructors throw salsa parties, complete with live bands and catering, on a regular basis, and are the organizers and judges behind some of the area’s top competitions, including the Utah Salsa Championship, the Jack & Jill Latin Cup, and the Utah King and Queen of Bachata contest.

A veritable cornucopia of hands-on family entertainment, Planet Play buzzes with laser tag, bumper cars, and more than 100 video games sprawled throughout its 55,000 square feet of indoor space. Miniature-golf decorations illuminate putts under the gleam of a black light, and gamers bask in the electronic glow of pinball machines, skee-ball, or Guitar Hero in the game room. Instead of lugging around giant piles of tickets or paying exorbitant fees to deposit them in an older sibling's pocket bank, gamers can easily cash in their winnings using an e-ticket Play Card. After working up an appetite on go-kart track or the mini bowling lanes, visitors can belly up to a buffet that brims with hand-tossed pizzas, a fresh salad bar, and decadent desserts.

Between Get Air Hang Time's two indoor locations in Orem and Lehi, more than 43,000 square feet of surface sprawls with wall-to-wall trampolines. Both centers' foam pits let jumpers land softly after launching from trampolines into feats of flips and twists, and Orem's AIRobics and Zumba classes bounce visitors into different means of exercise. Additionally, both locations let kids celebrate birthdays or recent promotions at the lemonade stand.

Studio owner Julie Branham and her team of registered yoga instructors at Lifted Life Yoga support students’ fitness goals by urging them toward a lifestyle driven by health and fitness, fostering an inclusive studio atmosphere where students of all abilities can develop their body awareness and hone yoga skills. Beginners can master the basics in patiently paced 60-minute classes where they follow instructors through muscle- and ligament-awakening stretches and breathing exercises to clear the mind. Once the knowledgeable teachers have successfully persuaded students over to the stretchy side, a plethora of specialty sessions geared to more experienced students addresses specific physical needs, such as runner's, prenatal, and hot yoga, whereas ongoing power Vinyasa classes pay constant homage to the solar system's temperamental fire ball with a series of sun salutations.
