West Hollywood has launched more fitness and wellness trends than just about anywhere — and when you visit, you can try the newest workouts before they hit the mainstream.

Here are some of our favorite spots to crush your fitness goals — and experience what’s next in the world of wellness — while visiting West Hollywood.
Barry’s
So iconic it literally has a trademark on the Best Workout in the World™, Barry’s was founded in West Hollywood in 1998 and boasts an extensive list of celebrity clients ranging from Kim Kardashian to Jake Gyllenhaal. Today there are more than 70 studios worldwide, but WeHo is where it all started. At the new Santa Monica Boulevard studio, Run X Lift classes combine treadmill runs with targeted strength training, while the new Ride X Lift swaps the treadmill for low-impact cycling. Single-class passes start at $34.

Pvolve
Touted as a “game changer” by partner and long-time fan Jennifer Aniston, Pvolve is a low-impact, resistance-based workout designed by and for women. A sustainable alternative to traditional strength training, Pvolve’s method sculpts and strengthens with intention, delivering toned legs, lifted glutes, and chiseled arms and abs — because, as Aniston puts it, “muscle is the ultimate anti-aging tool.” Drop-in classes are $36, and spots fill fast, so be sure to book ahead.
