Price: $40 to $200, depending on location and package
Price Structure: Base — 5 classes per month ($65 in SF); Core — 10 classes per month ($115 in SF); Unlimited, $175 in SF (prices vary by location).
Pros: Tons of classes to choose from; constant variety; incredibly flexible schedule; you can change your membership month to month; less expensive than paying individual studio fees; gets you to different neighborhoods and classes
Cons: Expensive; no centralized gym; can be tough to get to different studios around your city; you can only go to the same studio 2 to 3 times per month
- "ClassPass gets you out of your comfort zone! It just might lead you to discover a favorite workout you'd never heard of before (for me, that's Pop Physique)." — Erin Cullum, assistant Food editor, SF
- "I have ClassPass and I love it because I get to try out different studios around the city. It's also a great way to discover new studios that I probably wouldn't have known about myself. If you look at it in terms of paying for individual classes, the average in San Francisco is about $20-30 per class, so you are getting your money's worth." — Nicole Yi, Love assistant editor, SF
- "I supplement my Crunch membership with the Base ClassPass. $12 a class is usually more than a 50-percent discount on regular prices, but sometimes I forget to use one before my month expires, and figuring out a new studio's parking/quirks is kind of a hassle." — LM
- "The con is that it's only 5 classes a month, but the larger membership is more than I can afford (#NYCproblems)." — HP
- "I wish that they never hiked up the prices because I miss having unlimited classes (they should have somehow settled it with letting you go to a studio more than 3 times or letting you cancel without a fee)." — Nava Shmulevich, editorial intern, NYC
- "Like most members, I was pretty pissed off when ClassPass raised prices this year. Even so, I still decided to buy into the most expensive membership. I hate the gym and don't like to run; ClassPass has kept me on a consistent workout routine — plus, it's really fun trying so many new classes! Since I work out about four times a week, getting a $35 class for the average price of $11 is worth it to me." — Michele Foley, senior Fitness editor, SF
