Sometimes our dreams are within reach, but more often, those dreams are on the highest of high shelves, beside the BB gun and the cupcakes "for tomorrow." Reach that shelf with today's Groupon to stretch your muscles and muscle your stretches into a stretch of intense muscular moves. For $30, you get a five-class pass to Westside Yoga Studio in Lakewood, a $65 value. Upon your first visit, you'll receive your pass, which can be used toward any of the classes offered at the comforting studio. Once activated, you'll have 60 days to use your five classes, giving your card the considerable shelf life of a gallon of dehydrated milk.

Classes are taught in Cleveland Exotic Dance's private studio, where purple window drapes reflect off the glossy, hardwood floors. Walk-ins are not allowed to ensure optimum privacy as students engage in all manner of sensual shimmies, shakes, and schticks. The two-hour sampler class covered by today's deal will showcase the undulations of belly dance, the not-just-for-kids side of hula-hoop dance, the acrobatics of pole dance, and the coy winks of burlesque. For blushing coquettes and demure dames, no nudity actually takes place, though techniques for vintage, burlesque strip tease and modern pole-spins will be covered.

Jazzercise is 60 minutes of cardio, strength training, and stretching that incorporates moves from hip-hop, yoga, Pilates, jazz dance, kickboxing, and resistance training with handheld weights. Dancing With the Stars multiple-champion Cheryl Burke is a big fan of Jazzercise's improvisational workouts, though luckily you won't need her dance moves to get the most out of your class. If you're prone to first-class jitters, though, you can review the basic moves online before you go. Expect to burn off up to 500 calories with each go-round.

Doctor of Chiropractic Bob Leonard is as at home in a classroom as he is in his clinic. In addition to his chiropractic degree, the doctor has earned dual degrees in chemistry and biology, and he's continued his post-graduate education by studying the treatment of whiplash, headaches, neck and back pain, and nutrition. He applies that knowledge in the clinic that he opened in 2004, where he teams with licensed massage therapists and a certified acupuncturist to treat everything from chronic pain to anxiety. Throughout each treatment regimen, the doctor emphasizes patient education, keeping patients informed so that they can take active roles in maintaining their health and collections of famous spines.

The Five Seasons Family Sports Club houses tennis courts, a dining area, fitness facilities, swimming pools, and a full-service spa under one roof. Within air-conditioned indoor courts or on outdoor clay courts, racquet slingers compete in friendly bouts to sharpen swings, refine backhands, and showcase grunting abilities. Members can also break a sweat in exercise areas speckled with modern cardio equipment and weights or cool off in an Olympic-sized pool with diving wells and wading areas. Before meeting others for a postgame beverage at the lively café, clients can wander to the spa for a relaxing massage or partake in a sports workshop to gain a firm grasp on game mechanics.

The Yoga Space's instructors believe that all bodies, despite age and fitness level, can benefit from practicing yoga, inspiring aspiring yogis to bolster their minds and bodies with tranquility and strength. The instructors hold integrated yoga classes in which beginners and advanced students work side by side, bending and stretching into modified poses to suit their abilities. Class styles range from eclectic blends of several modalities to athletic Vinyasa sessions that focus on linking controlled breaths with a series of flowing postures. The studio's two practice rooms foster peaceful relaxation with calming earth tones and plenty of soft, natural light. An ethereal mural of a lavender tree spans one of the rooms with curling branches dotted in blossoms, providing students with a soothing point of focus. The Yoga Space supplies mats for yogis without them, as well as any other necessary props, and students are welcome to bring a blanket to keep warm during extended periods of meditation or to build a blanket fort.
