This is one of the reasons I switched insurance to Fallon- they reimburse $400/yr for my hubby and I to do pretty much any organized fitness- not just gyms. They cover town sports, the Y, even our fave indoor cycling classes! I think it's great. Hopefully people will be encouraged to actually use it and maybe other companies will follow suit.
