10 Instagrammable Fitness Studios in NYC

May 29, 2019 By Melanie No Comments

Instagrammable Fitness Studios NYC

Just in time for #WorkoutWednesday, I’ve curated a list of my go-to Instagrammable fitness studios that provide an amazing workout in an aesthetically pleasing environment. Because if you don’t take a selfie did the workout even happen? 😉 

Okay… sorry, I’m cringing at that last line too and I promise that was mostly in jest. Of course the studio you choose to attend does not have to be “instagrammable.” This post was really inspired by two different things: 

Fitness studios, especially in NYC, have to offer SO much in order to get people in the door. Not only do you have to have the best instructors but more and more people are hoping for some kind of flashy element as well. The ones that gain a cult following usually check all the boxes of practical, challenging and visually interesting. With so much competition I feel for the newer studios that really need something to get people in the door. Usually, Instagram is the first thing to grab people’s attention and if you can follow that up with a great workout then you’ve hit the jackpot. 

I’ve had the opportunity to try so many different workouts in various places and most of the time the ones that look really cool are the ones that I get the most questions about. I wanted to create a fun round-up if you’re in NYC and looking to try something new (and maybe document it afterwards). 

Either way, I hope you find this fun and will bookmark this post for anytime you’re in the Big Apple and looking to dive into the fitness scene. 

Pilates on the Square

Instagrammable Fitness Studio NYC

Workout: Classical style Pilates on both the Cadillac and Reformer machines. 

Instagrammable Factor: The studio is long and narrow but if you snag a spot in the back you get all the natural light and #junglevibes thanks to their array of plants. It also offers a great view of Union Square. 

Address: 857 Broadway, New York, NY

305 Fitness

Instagrammable Fitness NYC

Workout: They offer 3 different types of classes. PWR is a strength and conditioning class, FLX is a flexibility focused class (not yoga), and 305 Cardio is their signature 50 minute follow-along cardio dance class with a live DJ. I highly suggest taking their cardio class, especially with Ivy, Beth T, Hannah, or J Lott for the best experience. 

Instagrammable Factor: There isn’t much in 305 that isn’t Instagrammable. From the neon signs to the lip print wall murals and the colorful headphones on the wall, everything screams #GirlPower. 

Address: There are 3 in NYC. Midtown: 33 E 33rd St. Village: 18 W 8th St. UES: 1440 Third Ave.

SKYTING Yoga

Workout: Depending on the instructor, you’ll get a mix of Katonah Yoga, Hatha or Vinyasa. 

Instagrammable Factor: Exposed white brick, lots of greenery, a striped relaxation pit, and animals. Yes, stuffed animals! Depending on the location you can either flow next to a giant giraffe (Chinatown), a flock of flamingos (Tribeca) or a cuddly Panda family (Domino). 

Address: 3 Locations. Chinatown: 17 ALLEN STREET  Tribeca: 381 BROADWAY Domino: 43 SOUTH 4TH STREET BROOKLYN

Humming Puppy 

Workout: A mix of yoga classes that range from restorative to power Vinyasa flows. All take place in a dark room and are accompanied by a gentle humming vibration (similar to a sound bath) instead of music. 

Instagrammable Factor: Quite possibly the most visually stunning yoga studio in Manhattan. It’s brightly lit, lined with mirrors, and stand out pieces include a giant magnolia display and beautiful crystal chandelier. Sip a cup of complimentary tea while you relax (or snap photos) in their warm and inviting lounge area. 

Address: 119 West 23rd Street, New York, NY

New York Pilates

Workout: Pilates classes done on a Reformer machine. Classes range in intensity so you can pick based on your needs. Sculpt + Restore offers more mellow stretching while Burnout is a more high intensity style class. 

Instagrammable Factor: Lots and lots of white exposed brick and windows lined with sheer curtains. It’s pretty but not too over the top. 

Address: 3 locations. Bowery: 262 Bowery SoHo: 25 Howard St West Village: 124 W Houston

DanceBody

Workout: To be honest I’ve only ever taken their Sculpt classes but they’re really known for their dance inspired workouts. They have 5 different dance classes which range in skill level. I’ve heard the Follow-Along is probably best for beginners where as more experienced dancers can try their Full Out class. 

Instagrammable Factor: Whether it’s their brightly lit Nomad location or the super cute pink bathroom in their Tribeca location, this is definitely a good spot for post workout mirror selfies. 

Address: 3 Locations. Tribeca: 23 Leonard Street NoMad: 1158 Broadway UWS: Ripley Grier Studios 131 W72nd St. Studio 2R

PROJECT by Equinox 

Instagrammable Fitness Studios New York City

Workout: PROJECT brings together some of NYC’s top trainers who are able to test out their own formats in a really cool space. I highly recommend Sculpt Society with Megan, Babes and Bands with Bec, and Pilates Rebels with Helen. I’ve also heard great things about Jabs with Gina, but I haven’t tested that out yet. 

Instagrammable Factor: Cool uplighting, a steel bar to hang from, lots of mirrors and fun signage. 

Address: 267 Mulberry Street, New York, NY

Alo Yoga Soho

Workout: Alo brings together some of the top yogis in the industry to lead various intermediate to advanced classes. This is one of the only studios that offers classes solely dedicated to handstands, splits, and acro-yoga. They also bring in some other top instructors with cult followings (like Taryn Toomey’s The Class and Body by Simone). 

Instagrammable Factor: A huge brightly lit space with large wooden panels and plenty of fiddle leaf fig trees. Their cafe downstairs is also super cute! 

Address: 96 Spring St, New York, NY 

Energi 

Workout: Energi is the new kid on the block and offers up something many others don’t… a studio AND a co-working space. Workouts range from yoga sculpt to signature style classes from some of NYC’s top trainers. You’ll see some overlap from PROJECT but also a few other faces like Sydney Miller (Housework) and Amanda Kloots (AK! Dance). 

Instagrammable Factor: Lots of twinkle lights, a flower wall, and neon lightning bolt signs. They’re still new and the rest of the space is in the works but I have a feeling it’s going to be pretty epic when it’s finished. 

Address: 15 Broadway, New York, NY

Rise By We

Workout: They offer a mix of everything! Strength training, cardio, sculpt, meditation and yoga. They have two different studio rooms with very different vibes and a beautiful spa with a mineral pool, sauna and steam room. 

Instagrammable Factor: Everything here is so beautiful and well crafted. The yoga and meditation room (pictured above) has lots of mirrors and greenery. The other studio room has a green turf and the spa is so tranquil and has a very upscale vibe. 

Address: 85 Broad St. New York, NY 

Instagrammable Fitness Studio Honorary Mentions: Soul Cycle, WOOM Center, ModelFit, Pop Physique, Y7 Studio and Physique 57. 

I hope you all enjoyed this round-up! Are there any that you love that didn’t make the list? I’d love to hear about it! 

Until next time,

I know the idea of #romanticizingyourlife can sound super cliche and cheesy AF, but hear me out…
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Romanticizing your life isn’t about viewing everything through rose-colored glasses and it definitely doesn’t mean that life is perfect or that there aren’t challenges that you face.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What started as a silly Gen Z trend is actually a useful little mindfulness mindset that serves as a reminder to  embrace and amplify the good that already exists in your life. It can be as simple as being where your feet are and finding gratitude for the ordinary moments. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes it’s just about taking your time to appreciate the small joys in your journey and finding happiness on your own terms. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We all deserve to find little moments of positivity and dreaminess in our life. And I hope these little tips inspire you to not let life simply pass you by without taking time to soak in as much of it as possible 🥰

Winter weekends in the mountains are becoming my new favorite thing and just one of the many reasons why we love being in Colorado. 🏔️❄️🎿 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s made me think a lot about different chapters of life and how “leaving” something you love behind can actually just be a means of transferring that love to something else. I think this is the case for most major life decisions — and I know for B and I, leaving NYC to put down roots in Denver has resulted in such an amazing growth experience and plenty of new adventures, friendships and learning opportunities. 💕
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I guess I’m sharing this in case you’re currently on the fence about taking that leap into the unknown. Whether it’s a cross country move, accepting a new job, going back to school, starting a family, or wherever your journey is taking you…
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Trust the process of releasing the old to clear a path for  what’s ahead and embrace the ✨magic✨ of new beginnings.

Bringing back this series and sharing seven more #healthyhabits that have made a big difference in my life: 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤍𝐀𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐭: I’ve been a @vitalproteins fan for years and love adding their Marine Collagen into my smoothies and lattes. It dissolves super easily and I love that it provides hair, nails and joint support. You can shop the entire Vital Proteins line at @target. ⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤍𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Being able to slow down and ground myself in the present moment helps keep my stress levels under control
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤍𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤: I love my standing desk and that it helps with my posture, circulation and focus 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤍𝐄𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲: Eating snacks like the Vital Proteins Protein and Collagen bar helps keep me satiated in between meals

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It’s #selfcare szn and if you’re looking for a sign to TREAT YOURSELF to a boujee at home spa day, this is it 🧖🏻‍♀️ ✨☁️🌱

I made the switch to clean & cruelty free skincare years ago and figuring out which products are best for my skin has been a fun, ongoing process. If you’re curious as to what I’m using now — I’ve linked all of my favs that you see in this video in my Amazon storefront (link in bio) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This being said, you don’t NEED all the fancy skincare and accessories to treat yourself to some quality self care. 👸 Sometimes you can just throw on an old robe, light your favorite candle, spend a little extra time in a bath or shower 🛁, and give yourself a facial massage. And don’t forget the basics: drink plenty of water 💦🍋 and apply sunscreen! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No matter how ✨extra✨ you decide to be, I personally think skincare routines can be such a calming and therapeutic form of #selflove and self-care. Don’t you agree?

Introducing… a delicious, refreshing DREAMSICLE
Introducing… a delicious, refreshing DREAMSICLE smoothie inspired by the Bella Hadid x Erewhon Kinsicle smoothie that I’ve been seeing all over the internet. 🧡🍊 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The real deal has Kin Euphorics and Lion’s Mane Mushroom powder… but I made a few adjustments based on ingredients that I already had on hand (and that I think you might too)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In classic Erewhon fashion, this smoothie would cost $19 in store buuut making it at home means spending way less money + an ability to customize it to your liking. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ 1 banana
✨ 1 cup frozen mango
✨ 3 tbsp vanilla coconut yogurt 
✨ 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
✨ 1 serving marine collagen peptides 
✨ 1/4 cup orange juice 
✨ 1/2 cup almond milk 
✨ Ice 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Blend up, add organic coconut cream to your glass, pour and serve! 🧡

✨SIMPLE SELF-CARE IDEA: have a solo paint (or arts & crafts) night ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my favorite things about painting is that it is such a #mindful activity. It’s an hour or more off my phone, listening to mellow music, and totally locked in to what I’m creating. It’s so soothing and feels like a true mental #reset. Not to mention the end result always makes me feel a little accomplished, even if it’s not perfect 😊🎨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This time, I just painted little hearts on plain candlesticks. It turned out so cute and they’re perfect for Valentine’s Day!  I hope this inspires you to have your own little artsy #selfcare evening filled with your favorite hobbies and maybe even try painting some candles too 🕯️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS: One of my lil dreams was to have a dedicated space to focus on my art and I’m sooo happy to finally have this little desk set up in my office 👩‍🎨 . Cheers to more #painting nights ahead!

When it comes to reaching your goals, ✨#discipline✨ is THE secret sauce that will get you there every. single. time. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Motivation is the spark that can get us started but discipline is the flame that will keep burning, even when motivation is no where to be found.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A few things that can help with creating discipline around #healthyhabits and #goalsetting:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Habit stack so that you’re adding a new goal into a pre-existing part of your daily routine 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Focus on your “why” and that magical, accomplished feeling you’ll have AFTER you do that new habit 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Write it down, be specific, and refer to it often! (Hello vision board 👏🏻) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Find an accountability partner that you can check in with and maybe even work towards the same goal together! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This month I’ve been focused on my “3 for 30” challenge { nourish • move • self care } with my FB community and I’m excited to keep that consistency going through the rest of the year!

⚡️3 Simple Ways to Stay Energized While Workin
⚡️3 Simple Ways to Stay Energized While Working From Home ⚡️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can hardly believe it but this February will mark 5 years of work from home life for me (yep, I transitioned to full time entrepreneurial life in 2018). In that time I’ve gone through my fair share of ups and downs – especially when it comes to finding ways to stay #motivated and #energized while not leaving the house. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What I found is that whenever I prioritize the following 3 super simple (kind of no brainer) steps into my day… I’m able to maintain my energy levels and feel GOOD in my #WFH setting. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️Get dressed! Preferably in something comfortable, cute and that you can move in! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️Stay hydrated! Not only will it keep your brain sharp but it’s one of the best ways to maintain your energy levels without having to resort to endless caffeine
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️Get your heart rate up! Choose movement that you love, whether it’s dance, spin or a walk/jog on the treadmill. (I love my new Nordic Track Treadmill!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A huge shout out to @dickssportinggoods for helping make prioritizing my #wellbeing while working from home so much easier. I’ve linked a few of my absolute favorite DICK’S finds that you see in this video on my stories so be sure to check that out!

When it comes to reaching your goals, ✨#discipli When it comes to reaching your goals, ✨#discipline✨ is THE secret sauce that will get you there every. single. time.

Motivation is the spark that can get us started but discipline is the flame that will keep burning, even when motivation is no where to be found.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A few things that can help with creating discipline around #healthyhabits and #goalsetting:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Habit stack so that you’re adding a new goal into a pre-existing part of your daily routine 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Focus on your “why” and that magical, accomplished feeling you’ll have AFTER you do that new habit 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Write it down, be specific, and refer to it often! (Hello vision board 👏🏻) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Find an accountability partner that you can check in with and maybe even work towards the same goal together!

This month I’ve been focused on my “3 for 30” challenge { nourish • move • self care } with my FB community and I’m excited to keep that consistency going through the rest of the year!

⚡️3 Simple Ways to Stay Energized While Workin ⚡️3 Simple Ways to Stay Energized While Working From Home ⚡️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can hardly believe it but this February will mark 5 years of work from home life for me (yep, I transitioned to full time entrepreneurial life in 2018). In that time I’ve gone through my fair share of ups and downs – especially when it comes to finding ways to stay #motivated and #energized while not leaving the house. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What I found is that whenever I prioritize the following 3 super simple (kind of no brainer) steps into my day… I’m able to maintain my energy levels and feel GOOD in my #WFH setting. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️Get dressed! Preferably in something comfortable, cute and that you can move in! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️Stay hydrated! Not only will it keep your brain sharp but it’s one of the best ways to maintain your energy levels without having to resort to endless caffeine
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️Get your heart rate up! Choose movement that you love, whether it’s dance, spin or a walk/jog on the treadmill. (I love my new Nordic Track Treadmill!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A huge shout out to @dickssportinggoods for helping make prioritizing my #wellbeing while working from home so much easier. I’ve linked a few of my absolute favorite DICK’S finds that you see in this video on my stories so be sure to check that out!
