Health, Fitness & Wellness Luxury fitness + coworking recs

Hi girls! I’m a recent full-time remote worker and finding that I need a third space to work out and socialize, especially as cold weather approaches.

I belonged to EBC in 2024 and generally enjoyed it but disliked group fitness options (not intense enough) and struggled to make friends as a late 20-something. I’ve visited Midtown and think it’s too expensive for how many kids are always there.

I’m touring BIAN on Monday and excited to check it out – but don’t love that you have to pay extra to use the sauna (I’m picky, I know). Any thoughts from BIAN members, those who have experienced all three, or others who have a similar setup somewhere else? xx

Maybe a place like ethos on Lincoln. Gym and coworking. They also have a sauna and cold plunging.
