Every fitness studio has its own approach to hyping up its visitors and inspiring a sense of accomplishment. F45 Training relies on its unique workout format — centered on 45-minute functional training sessions — and a motivational, team-building mentality to stand out. And fortunately for them, this unique pairing has proven to be a winning formula: Since F45 opened its first studio in Australia in 2013, it's expanded to 1,700 studios in 67 countries. But, of course, when considering whether a studio is a fit for you, one of the key pieces of information to know how how much it costs. So we looked into F45 pricing, and there are a few things to consider before signing up for a class.
If you live near one of the many F45 studios and are interested in giving it a try, there are several different class and membership options. But since the chain's pricing is dependent on location, we dove deeper into the various prices, including F45 membership costs, to give you a better idea of what to anticipate financially. Here's the inside scoop on how much you'll spend at F45 costs, plus what you can expect to get out of your investment.

How Much Does F45 Cost?
Pricing varies across studios, as do the specific membership tiers and class pack options available. The easiest way to learn about membership options and exact pricing is to contact your closest studio, which you can find using the "Find a Studio" feature on the F45 site. To give you a sense of the range of pricing and trial offers, however, we gathered information directly from an F45 representative and from the websites of a variety of F45 studio locations. These starting prices are accurate, according to an F45 representative, but again, exact costs may vary depending on the location.
We'll break down the specifics of some studios below, but first here are some general takeaways, based on our research.
- F45 Single Drop-In Class ($30 and up)
- F45 Monthly Membership ($170 and up)
- F45 Unlimited Membership ($300 and up)
A major difference between a monthly membership and an unlimited one is that the former only grants access to the specific studio you sign up with, while the latter lets you drop-in at any F45 location for no additional cost — a recent update to the F45 membership options.
To emphasize how widely memberships and costs can vary between locations: F45 Training City Center San Francisco sells a drop-in pass for $38, a 10-class pass for $340, and a 20-class pass for $640. New, local members are eligible for a $7, one-week pass too.
In Hawai'i, local residents of Oahu can try a seven-day trial at F45 Training Ala Moana for $7 as well. But this location offers a drop-in pass for a one-time fee of $30, a one-week pass at for $80, a one-month pass (including unlimited classes) for $269, and a 20-class pass for $550.
Over at F45 Training Dallas Arena, local residents can try a three-day trial pass for $10, or pay for a single drop-in pass for $30. At this location, you can buy memberships for unlimited visits (paying $99 every two weeks) or limited visits ($40-$70 every two weeks, for two to four classes per week).
At F45 Training Downtown Los Angeles, local residents can try a seven-day trial for $36, or a drop-in pass for $35. The cost for a one-week pass is $72, a one-month pass is $270, a 10-class pass is $300, and a 20-class pass is $500. Members can also choose between a three-month pass starting at $699, a six-month pass for $1,200, or an annual pass for $1,999, according to their website.
Finally, at F45 Training Flatiron in New York City, the seven-day trial promo rate for local residents is $49, while the regular one-week unlimited pass cost is $99 and the one-month pass is $399. A single drop-in pass is $42, and the location offers several bulk class pass options, ranging from a five-class pass at $199, a 10-class pass at $369, a 20-class pass at $649, and a 30-class pass at $899.
F45's pricing places it within the ballpark of other national workout studios, like Orangetheory Fitness and Club Pilates. If you prefer group instruction, value the benefits of cardio and resistance training, or just love to push your limits, you might find that F45's fees are well worth it.
Whether you opt for a membership or à la carte classes, you can use F45's extensive selection of workouts to craft a well-rounded routine. The studios offer Cardio classes that combine aerobic and anaerobic work; Resistance classes designed to build power and stability; Hybrid cardio and resistance classes; and Recovery classes focused on mobility and flexibility. Each F45 class offers a full-body workout, and no two workouts are the same, according to the brand. You'll also use tons of different equipment in class, from spin bikes and free weights to battle ropes and plyometric boxes.

Are There Any Other F45 Costs to Know About?
If you like tracking your metrics during workouts, you can purchase F45's Lionheart Heart Rate Monitor to use during the classes. The device tracks your heart rate, percentage of maximum effort, total calories burned, and rates your performance with a points system. You can view your stats on screens in the studios throughout class. While the heart rate monitor is available for purchase at F45 studios, they aren't a requisite for taking classes. The cost of the monitors is set by each individual studio, per an F45 representative and the F45 website, but range from around $50 to $100 with the accompanying band, according to Reddit.
F45 holds several 45-day challenges throughout the year, which are targeted fitness and nutrition programs that sometimes come at an additional cost. Anyone who downloads the F45 Training app can view meal plans and recipes, and F45 members can also reserve classes, participate in F45 challenges, and have access to on-demand workouts.
