Light streams into this converted warehouse space, a neighbourhood gym in Liberty Village. The schedule lists all the usual classes—yoga, spinning, Pilates, step, Muay Thai, boxing—but most of the fledgling clientele prefer to do things on their own. As such, owner Sandro Limotta (a former competitive bodybuilder) has set up an array of Precor and Nautilus equipment in a circuit formation in one section of the gym. Women work out in a separate space equipped with machines designed specifically for them, as well as a stockpile of free weights and benches; there’s never a sign-up list for the 2,300 square feet of cardio equipment.
How much:
initiation fee up to $200, monthly fee $75.
