Stepping through the doors of Club Studio is like entering a wellness wonderland. The new Troy gym and fitness club (clubstudiofitness.com) has a sleek, modern look and brings a unique concept to the market by offering top-of-the-line amenities and wellness services — all in one location.
“We are in a category of our own,” says Allie Ruben, Club Studio coordinator. “I really view Club Studio as your one-stop shop for all things — not just fitness but also health and wellness. We have an incredible team that works with you, breaks everything down and ensures it fits your schedule and lifestyle.
“Because of that,” she says, “it does give you the most bang for your buck.”
The sleek, high-tech studio offers 150-plus classes, from music-pumping cycle rides and CS4 cardio and strength circuit training to boxing, Reform Pilates and yoga. Members can also work out at their own pace with free weights, cardio and functional training equipment. Take a dip in the studio’s lap pool, or join in a game of basketball or pickleball.
However, fitness is only half of what Club Studio offers. Wellness and recovery are part of the game plan. Members have access to a steam room, sauna and whirlpool spa. For an extra fee, they can also take advantage of cryo and red-light therapies, as well as the Kalologie Medspa with services like IV Drip Hydration, Vitamin Shots, Botox, Juvederm, CoolSculpting and Skin Rejuvenation. Afterward, members can relax and refuel at the organic superfood cafe.
“The most beautiful thing about Club Studio is that we don't have a ‘typical’ type of member,” Ruben says. “With everything we offer, anyone is welcome, and everyone who walks through our doors thrives. We have younger individuals in their late teens and early 20s, all the way through to those 60 to 70-years-old and beyond. There really is something for everyone.”
Before signing up, prospective members can visit the facility and sample a free class. A sales associate will provide a private tour, showcasing the entire layout of the club, and answer any questions. Included in the membership is an optional one-on-one assessment with a personal trainer to help identify strengths, weaknesses and mobility. They can then develop a comprehensive plan, incorporating group fitness classes, one-on-one personal training sessions and tailored workout regimens.
“Whether you’re looking to refresh your fitness routine or want to start from scratch but are not sure where to begin, Club Studio might be the answer,” Ruben says. “Our coaches love what they do, and if they can get one person in every class to learn to love what they love, it's a win.
“It's not about how heavy you lift,” she says. “It's about just coming in, meeting yourself where you are that day — and knowing you have a team around you.”
