Everything You Need To Know About ClassPass

17 February, 2025

Trust me, you’re not gonna meet the love of your life at run clubs, it’s through ClassPass — a fitness app to a world of sweaty possibilities!

Have you ever found yourself stuck in a fitness rut? Doing the same treadmill routine, attending the same yoga studio, or just making excuses to not work out at all? Well, maybe it’s time to check out ClassPass. Think of it as the Netflix of fitness, but instead of binge-watching, you’re binge-sweating (and maybe contemplating your life choices during a particularly intense spin class!)

Here’s everything you need to know about ClassPass, how it works, and why it might just be the thing you need to shake up your fitness routine. Oh, and don’t worry — it’s not all burpees and boot camps. There’s something for everyone, even if your idea of exercise is more “zen” than “beast mode.”

What Is ClassPass?

ClassPass is a subscription-based app that gives you access to fitness studios, gyms, and wellness experiences in your city and beyond. Whether you’re into yoga, pilates, boxing, barre, dance, or even cryotherapy (yes, freezing yourself counts as wellness now), ClassPass has you covered! Want to try aerial yoga one day and kickboxing the next? Go for it. Need a massage session after all that experimenting? They’ve got that too! It’s like having a buffet of fitness options at your fingertips, minus the calories.

How Does ClassPass Work?

Here’s the lowdown on how to get started:

1. Sign up and choose a plan

ClassPass operates on a credit system. You buy a subscription plan that gives you a certain number of credits each month, which you can spend on classes and wellness activities. The more credits you have, the more classes you can take. So whether you’re a once-a-week yogi or a daily gym rat, there’s an option for you.

2. Browse and book

Use the app to discover classes near you! Each class or service is assigned a credit cost, which can vary depending on factors like time, location and popularity.

3. Show up and sweat

Once you’ve booked your class, all you have to do is show up. No need to deal with the awkward “I’m new here” conversation at the front desk — most studios would leave out a tablet for check-in. Just bring your water bottle, your game face and maybe a towel (trust us, you’ll need it).

4. Repeat

The best part? You’re not tied to any one gym or studio! You can mix it up as much as you want. One week you might be perfecting your downward dog, then you’re punching a heavy bag like it owes you money, and the next you’re having the most relaxing spa experience!

Sassy Tips For Using ClassPass

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just getting started, these tips will help you unlock the full potential of your membership. Here’s how to make every credit count:

  • All about the credits

    With ClassPass, the number of credits you can roll over to the next month depends on your plan. For instance, if you’re on a 100-credit plan, you can roll over up to 100 unused credits. Plus, you have the flexibility to change your plan anytime, and purchase small batches of credits. Just remember to use up credits before they expire.

  • Be the new kid in town

    You’ll get a discount on credits when visiting a new workout studio for the first time! Don’t say no to a discount!

  • Early bird gets the worm

    Popular classes fill up fast, especially during peak hours. Set a reminder to book your favourites as soon as the schedule opens.

  • Be flexible all over

    A 6pm prime-time spin class? That’ll cost you more credits. But a 9am yoga session on a Tuesday? It’s likely to be much lighter on your credits. Opt for non-peak hour classes to stretch your credits further.

  • Book outside 852

    One of the coolest things about ClassPass is that it works in cities all over the world. You can still use your credits to book classes wherever you are. It’s like having a global gym membership. Before your vacation, check if ClassPass is available at your destination and book a class to experience life like a local!

  • Self-care is wealth

    ClassPass isn’t just about fitness. Remember to use your credits for wellness and sport therapy services like massages, facials, acupuncture, saunas, and even nail care and haircut sessions. Self-care is just as important as self-discipline!

Is ClassPass Right For You?

If you’re a die-hard fan of one specific gym or fitness studio, you might not get as much value out of it. But if you love variety, hate commitment (no judgement here), or just want to shake up your routine, it’s a fantastic option! What are you waiting for? Your next workout is just a swipe away.
