At the start of this year, I promised myself I’d try something new—something just for me. One of the “hobbies” on my list? Yoga. I wasn’t sure if I’d love it or if it would just be another phase, so I decided to ease in by signing up for a 30-day free trial on ClassPass. I figured it would be a fun way to explore different studios without committing right away.
Well, here’s the plot twist—I ended up loving yoga, but what I loved even more was the ClassPass app itself! It made trying new studios so easy and flexible that I couldn’t resist subscribing. Now, I happily pay $59 a month for 28 credits, and honestly? It’s been one of the best investments I’ve made in myself.
What is ClassPass?
Think of ClassPass as a golden ticket to a variety of fitness studios, gyms, and even wellness services like spas and salons. It’s perfect for anyone who gets bored easily (me) or wants to mix things up without locking into a single membership. I’ve used it to bounce between yoga and barre classes, choosing studios based on what fits my mood and schedule that day.
How Does It Work?
With my plan, I get 28 credits per month, and each class costs a certain number of credits. Yoga typically ranges from 3 to 6 credits, while Pilates can be a pricier treat—anywhere from 20 to 50 credits, depending on the studio and time slot.
During the free trial, you get access to a bunch of different classes—yoga, Pilates, HIIT, and more—but there’s a small catch: you can only visit each studio once. Just enough to get a taste! But once you subscribe, you can go back as often as your credits allow, making it a super flexible and budget-friendly way to stay active.

How to Navigate & Find Your Class
Studios I’ve Tried & My Experience
YogaSix – Y6 Slow Flow
Gone once on my free trial – loved it!
This class was a great intro to yoga—relaxing, well-paced, and exactly what I needed.
Indira Yoga – Weights & Yoga Sculpt
Gone once on my free trial – loved it!
This class was small and intimate (only three of us!), which made it feel more personal. The instructor was super helpful, funny, and made everyone feel comfortable. The only downside? No mirrors to check your poses, but honestly, it was such a great experience that I didn’t mind.
Serasana – Flow Yoga
Gone once on my free trial – and I don’t think I’ll be back.
So, here’s the thing—Serasana’s class pricing is wild. They start out ridiculously high and then drop into the single digits when they don’t fill up. That was already a bit off-putting, but the real kicker? I felt judged by the instructor. 😅 As someone who takes time to feel comfortable in new places (social anxiety, anyone?), this was not the experience I was hoping for. Left feeling pretty meh about it.
Titanium Yoga – Silver
Obsessed with this studio!
From the moment I stepped in, I knew this was my vibe. The energy is so welcoming, and the instructor, Jamey Williamson, is amazing—chill, easygoing, and makes sure you’re in the correct poses without being intimidating. Definitely a favorite!
Rebel Studio – Rebel Pulse Class
LOVEEEEE this studio!
I originally went to support my book club host, Lauren, who teaches here—and I ended up hooked. I kept going for weeks in a row, switching to an instructor that fit my schedule best. Let me tell you, my arms felt like pasta after class, and I was sore for days (the good kind of sore). The energy here is unmatched, the girls who attend are awesome, and Andrea Smith—one of the instructors—is absolutely bomb.
Final Thoughts
ClassPass has been a game-changer for me. It’s not just about yoga anymore—it’s about the freedom to try new workouts, relax with a massage, or even pamper myself with a facial. The flexibility it offers has kept me motivated and excited to explore new things.
If you’re looking to shake up your routine and try something fresh without committing to one studio, I highly recommend giving ClassPass a shot. It might just be the perfect way to take care of yourself in a way that fits your life.
