Spynga
Spynga South Studio
1415 Bathurst St., 416-588-7796
Work up a sweat while improving your inner chi at this hybrid exercise class that combines a high-intensity spinning workout with the restorative benefits of yoga. An introductory offer of two classes for $20 means you can sample the goods for a steal.

Yoga

The ultimate membership for the nomadic yogi, the passport entitles users to one free class at each of 36 Toronto yoga studios, and it lasts a year. The cost is just $30, meaning if you can make the time, you could bring the per-class rate down to 83 cents (and turn your body into a temple while you’re at it).

Squash
St. Lawrence Community Centre
230 Esplanade, 416-392-1347
Play the game of Bay Street big shots without the posh prices at the St. Lawrence Community Centre, operated by the city’s parks and rec department. Courts cost just $6.50 per player, which is less than the price of parking at some private racquet clubs. Book early (up to a week in advance is allowed), especially on busy winter weeknights.

Boxing
Bloor Street Fitness and Boxing
2295 Dundas St. W., 416-535-2699
The city’s most authentic boxing gym—it’s home to the same ring in which Muhammad Ali battled Rocky Marciano in Times Square—is also the cheapest. A monthly membership of $49 includes 24/7 gym access, daily boxing and unlimited classes (pilates, kick-boxing, hip hop) for exercise buffs of all kinds.
