“NYC’s HIGHEST RATED PARTNER-BASED FITNESS STUDIO”
THE SWITCH EXPERIENCE
“AN EXPERIENTIAL TOTAL BODY WORKOUT
UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE”
SWITCH incorporates cutting-edge fitness technology with state-of-the-art facilities, lighting and sound for what is an industry first, group fitness environment. An Instructor leads the HIIT class with a team of highly skilled Trainers through a labyrinth of Playground activities. A live DJ fuels the energy, coupled with lighting and special effects. This one-of-a-kind playing field is transformed into a theater of fitness and wellness. By making the SWITCH, you immediately join a family with a main emphasis of making each and every class fun.
That’s why, even if you come alone, we’ll find you a playground partner to take on the class together for a unique group fitness experience. This is the only group training class of its kind, offering the motivation of group fitness, but with multiple trainers to provide personal attention. This approach allows Switch to transcend from the playground into the lives of our players. The Switch philosophy is not restricted to the walls of the playground. It is just the catalyst, a beginning. Be unstoppable. Come play.
