Strength Training, Elevated.

Our mission is to make strength training accessible, safe, effective, and fun. We pair world-class coaches with best-in-class Tonal technology. With a maximum of 8 members per class, we offer the ideal blend of group energy and personal attention.

Class Types

Onboarding
You can book your mandatory 20-minute onboarding session directly before your first class.

Full Body Strength
A 50-minute class built around a proven structure. Warm up, core activation, two Tonal strength blocks, active recovery, and a finisher. Designed to build strength across all major muscle groups.

Pilates Sculpt
Strength meets control. Using Tonal’s Pilates mode, these classes mimic the feel of a reformer while focusing on mobility, core strength, and light conditioning. Finishers may include ankle strap work for targeted glute training.

How it Works

Book Your Onboarding

Tonal ensures every rep you perform in class is the right load for you, but first, it needs to get to know you.

You will start with a 20-minute calibration workout to establish your strength baseline, understand your training history, and align on your goals. 

The Connected Difference

Tonal adjusts load in real time based on your strength and how you adapt, so you are always training at the right intensity. This removes the guesswork and drives consistent progress, whether you are new or experienced.

We pair this technology with expert coaching to guide every session. You will have your own Tonal and bike, with no sharing or waiting.

Chart Your Own Path

After onboarding, choose the option that best fits your training style.

We offer drop-ins, class packs, and monthly memberships designed to make strength training simple and accessible.

Download our Members App (Connected Strength) in the Apple or Android App Store. To manage your bookings and membership.

The word is out: strength training is essential at every stage of life. Our mission is to make premium strength training experiences accessible, safe, effective, and fun.
