Here are the top three stories in Scottsdale today:

1. A new kind of fitness studio has arrived in Scottsdale. Body Politik is the first and only studio in the Valley to offer Versa Climber and Lagree in the same place. Their strength training Lagree classes are currently open, and users can build their muscles on the Megaformer machines. A Versa Climber room that focuses on intense cardio will open in a second room in the studio in January of 2023. (Fabulous Arizona)
2. Following in the footsteps of the wildly popular Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit, Scottsdale will now play home to the Immersive King Tut Exhibit as well. Held at Lighthouse ArtSpace, the King Tut exhibit takes visitors on a fascinating and dazzling journey through the history of ancient Egypt. With stunning visuals and a unique look at the life and legacy of King Tut, this Immersive Exhibit is being hailed as one of the most impressive yet. Dates for the exhibit will run through December.

3. If you own an ugly sweater, the Scottsdale Area Chamber of Commerce has an event you won't want to miss.
