North Dallas near Northpark Mall

Hiking in the Cedar Ridge Preserve for one. There’s places to eat all over. And there’s like that indoor skydiving place in The Colony. Oh and TopGolf, which you don’t have to go to The Colony for (75 @ Park Ln)

What are you trying to do? There are plenty of activities in Dallas. Go hiking/biking/running or join a gym/workout class. Check out the art scene at the DMA, AT&T performing arts center or attend a concert at the American Airlines center. Go shopping in West Village, on Knox Henderson or Northpark Mall. Can provide more ideas but age/hobbies/gender would help.

I’m pretty open on the type of activities - really just wanna know what there is to explore in Dallas. Husband and I are in our late 20s/early 30s btw.

OP, what part of town do you live in?

Yoga folks! I used to do yoga and exercise frequently. Things happened, getting back on the wagon. I'd love to work up to a daily practice even if it's just a few mins - but I do need to incorporate other programming as I've got some covid lbs to lose. For those of you who do yoga regularly, wondering how you incorporate and/or balance your practice vs. other types of workouts or if you mostly do strengthening type yoga in that case.
