Class + Studio: Chaise Reinvention @ Chaise Fitness

Location: NYC (UES), New Jersey

Length: 60 mins (they have a 45 min express)

Description: Sculpting class using bungee bands suspended from the ceiling, as well as a special “chair” that is similar to pilates cadillac (just set up differently). Cardio breaks in between

Sweat level: 5/10 – Not a sweaty workout, except for the cardio segment

Tone level: 7/10 – More challenging if you go often, bc the chair is complicated + takes getting used to (lots of time may be spent figuring it out). More advanced class offered

Cult level: 7/10 – Super welcoming + nice people/staff, but many people are experience that it might be intimidating

Sneakers/props: Wear sneakers! They have water stations and towels (+ also free nuts & gum!)

Shower/locker situation: no showers, a couple change rooms and some refresh products

Vibe: Good vibes in here and the staff are extremely passionate about the workout. Might feel intimidating at first, but they’re there to help you!

Similar to: Very unique class, but if pilates cadillac + TRX had a baby, it would be closest to this!

Extras: On ClassPass. New client special: 3 for $33 (so if it’s your first time, def more worth it to buy new client special than 10-12 credits)

Go back? Have been a few times and would go back! Would be cool to see the results if we went often!
