No money? No problem.

If  you’re a New Yorker, there’s a good chance that the majority of your income goes towards sky-high rent, weekend brunches, Instagram worthy coffee shops and boutique fitness studios. You don’t need us to tell you that working out in NYC can be expensive AF. Well, we’ve rounded up a handful of amazing fitness classes across the city that offer *more* wallet-friendly options. Here are 9 places where you can take a fitness class for $25 or less!

bodyArt

bodyArt is a functional training system that feels like the perfect mix of vinyasa yoga meets barre meets mild cardio. You’ll only use one tool for this workout: your own body. No weights, no bands. Just you and your mat, which gives you with the opportunity to really focus on the movements and your breath, the most important part. And who wouldn’t want a body like Madonna’s?! Yup, she travels with her own BA trainer! Try the workout at Limelight Fitness on Mon, Wed, Fri or Sun for $20 a session.
