Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a boutique studio and a full-service gym?
Boutique studios focus on one format (heart-rate training, Pilates-style strength, treadmill-and-ride combos) with class-based programming and a fixed class schedule. Full-service gyms offer broad equipment and open-floor workouts alongside group classes. Boutique studios usually require class reservations; gyms are drop-in.
Are boutique fitness studios more expensive than gyms?
Generally yes, per-class. Boutique studios typically charge per-class or per-package; full-service gyms charge a monthly membership covering unlimited use. Check each studio's site for current pricing.
