New Bodypass Lets You Mix and Match Classes at Melbourne's Boutique Gyms
Thousands of Melbourne gym classes, one pass.
Gym classes in Melbourne — what a gamble. You’ll fork over your hard-earned cash for a big chain membership, only to be sorely disappointed with their ‘yoga’ offering. Or even worse, you’ll learn the subtle art that is making every excuse to miss class week after week, because burpies and aggressive Body Attack ladies. But imagine if you could handpick your own gym program from Melbourne's best, most novel and most fun classes, without committing to one gym?
Bodypass is a new Australian all-encompassing gym pass that launched in Sydney last month – and has just become available in Melbourne – that lets you attend unlimited gym classes at the city’s best studios with one $99-per-month membership. Similar to the US program Classpass, you can book yourself into thousands of indoor and outdoor activities like hip hop dance, spin, yoga, pilates, strength training, martial arts, Barre, HIIT, belly dancing and more at some of Australia’s best fitness studios — all with one card, and no long-term commitment (you can cancel anytime without charge).
Exercise scientist Georgia van Tiel and yoga teacher and health food cook Carla McMillan created the program with a aim of breaking the whole ‘gym culture’ stigma associated with fitness and take exercise back to being an accessible, dare we say it, fun part of life. “When some people think of fitness and exercise, they immediately conjure a vision of the ‘dread-mill’ or hitting the gym which can be perceived as boring, repetitive and simply, not very fun,” says Van Tiel.
Local Bodypass partners include Blue Sky Fitness, Body Sharp, Chunky Move Dance Company, Fitstrong, Ihana Yoga, Melbourne Salsa, Metafit, Results in Motion, Princess Park Boot Camp and Zumba United, to name but a few. You can only visit the same studio up to three times per monthly cycle, but otherwise, go nuts.
