4 minute read

If you love to work out, you probably already know that the group fitness scene has been on the rise in recent years. With so many new classes cropping up—from spin to barre to yoga—studios like SoulCycle and PureBarre have become incredibly popular and developed cult followings. Unfortunately, many of these classes are also expensive, and can cost upwards of $40 per session (yikes).

The good news: For those of us who want a challenging workout without penny-pinching until our next paycheck, there are still studios, gyms, and retailers that have great fitness deals. Here, 14 that offer free or discounted opportunities to sweat for first-time clients.
