6 Boutique Fitness Classes To Try In NYC

Going to the gym gets boring after a while and it’s easy to get stuck in a rut if you keep doing the same thing all the time. Change up your routine by checking out some of these boutique fitness classes! While paying for some of these can be pricey, NYU will sometimes give you free classes at many of these places, so don't miss out. ​
1. SoulCycle

We’ve all heard of the $30 spin classes and seen a privileged few walking around in their $70 SoulCycle attire. This spin class is absolutely amazing – using some of the most upbeat music and combining it with a dark room full of sweaty bikers, you get a 45-minute mind-body experience. You will have burned off any calories you consumed the day before and leave the class feeling refreshed and in need of a nap. SoulCycle rarely has discounts, so if your residence hall offers a free class, get on that. SoulCycle has locations all over Manhattan.
2. ​Revolve Fitness

A slightly more wallet-friendly spin class, RYDE by Revolve is a rhythm sport that builds form and technique while pushing you to your limits. The instructors are super friendly and many of the classes are based on what kind of music you like. It’ll never be a boring work out with RYDE, and the next day will definitely be a rest day.
3. ​((305)) FITNESS

Not a fan of spinning? Fear not, 305 Fitness has some of the fiercest instructors that any boutique fitness class has to offer. You might be dripping in sweat by the end of the warm-up, but the latest pop songs and energetic staff will keep you going for the entire 55-minute class. The dance moves may be pretty raunchy at times, so it’s a class to experience with friends.
4. ​Row House

Think Frank Underwood in House of Cards, only more fun and less “I’m plotting my revenge.” Everyone rows together, and you get a free class on your birthday if you sign up on their website. Plus, you can bring a friend.​
5. ​RUMBLE

If you’re looking for some upbeat hip-hop and mashups to workout to, you can’t go wrong with boxing. For 45 minutes, you get to punch water-filled bags and do some strength conditioning. Can you think of a better stress reliever than that? ​
6. ​City Row

An alternative to Row House, City Row does rowing with mat and body exercise intervals. You won’t be attached to any piece of equipment for the entire time, unlike in a spin class. Other forms of cardio put pressure on your joints, but rowing eliminates that problem.
