Yes. As an Orangetheory Fitness member, you have the flexibility to visit any Orangetheory location within the country where your membership was purchased. This means that if you have a membership in the United States, you can visit any Orangetheory studio across the country without incurring any additional charges.
It’s important to note that while you can attend any studio within the same country, premium studios in major cities such as New York and Los Angeles may impose an additional charge for members from other studios, typically ranging from $10 to $20.
However, if you plan to visit an Orangetheory studio outside of the country where your membership was purchased, you will be required to pay the drop-in rate applicable at that particular studio (the drop-in rate at the majority of studios is $28).
Overall, being an Orangetheory Fitness member grants you the freedom to work out at various locations within your membership country, providing convenience and flexibility for your fitness routine.
How to Use Orangetheory Fitness Membership at Any Location?
In order to attend an Orangetheory class, one must book a spot at least 24 hours prior.
To book classes at another Orangetheory Fitness studio through the app, follow these steps:
- Open the Orangetheory Fitness app on your device.
- Clicking on the “My Studio” button in the top right corner, then searching for the desired studio by name or zip code.
- Clicking on the desired studio from the list.
- Once you’ve selected the studio, you can view the available classes at that location.
- Choose the specific class you want to book and click on it.
- Follow the prompts to confirm your booking for the selected class.
Sometimes the app won’t allow it due to the fact you don’t have a card on file. Or it could be past your billing date. If the scheduled class is occurring after your next billing date it won’t let you schedule somewhere that’s not your home studio. Just call the other studio and they will book for you. They need a CC on file.
To book classes at another Orangetheory Fitness studio through the phone call, follow these steps:
- Find Orangetheory studio’s phone number.
- Call the studio.
- They’ll book the class in for you
Based on what I’ve seen, you’ll likely need to give the studio a call the first time you want to attend a class that’s not at your home location. The reason you might encounter issues booking through the app is that it doesn’t always allow reservations at studios other than your home base. Plus, the studio you’re visiting will need to have a credit card on file for you. They won’t charge it upfront; it’s just a precaution in case of a late cancellation or if you’re booking past your billing date.
Additionally, the studio will require you to sign a liability waiver and have you provide your personal details (like your name, address, emergency contact, etc.) for their records. Once they’ve got you set up in their system after that first visit, you should be good to go for future bookings via the app. You can find the studio’s phone number in the app, and if they’re open and picking up the phone, it’s usually a quick process to get yourself sorted.
Make sure to call the studio well in advance to put your name on the waitlist, especially since you won’t know how long the wait might be. The earlier you book your spot, the better your chances are.
When you do secure a spot in a class, plan on arriving at least 15 minutes early. This gives you ample time to fill out any necessary paperwork and get acquainted with the new studio without feeling rushed. It’s always better to have some breathing room rather than showing up right when class is about to start and feeling disoriented.
Are Orangetheory Workouts the Same Everywhere?
Fortunately, yes! Orangetheory classes and workouts are the same regardless of the location. They all last 60 minutes for the regular classes, and the heart rate monitor is a primary accessory in the class.
You can also count on the treadmill, water rower, and floor training activities, all in high-intensity interval training.
Therefore, it will not matter which studio you attend and when you sign up for a class. They are all the same everywhere.
Are There Extra Charges for Taking a Class at Other OTF Studios?
In regular Orangetheory studios, it is free for members to join a class from other locations. However, premium studios in big cities such as New York and Los Angeles charge $10 to $20 to OTF members from other studios.
Nonetheless, taking a class in an OTF studio outside your country is more expensive. Essentially, you will have to pay a drop-in rate or simply subscribe to a number of classes when you are in a foreign country.
However, remember that if you purchase classes, the passes will only be credible in that country. You would have to resume your regular subscription classes when you are back home.
What Are Drop-in Rates at OTF Studios?
Assuming you sign up for a class in other Orangetheory studios in other countries, then you would pay the drop-in rate, which is the rate for a single class in the studio.
Usually, the rates will vary depending on the location and the franchise management. For instance, you will find that it is more expensive to get an OTF class in large cities that are highly populated compared to smaller towns.
Nevertheless, the most common rate is $28 for existing Orangetheory members.
Conclusion
With an Orangetheory membership, you can freely utilize your pass at any OTF location within the same country.
However, when travelling abroad, the membership does not apply, and individuals would need to pay the drop-in rate to access Orangetheory studios in different countries.
