The luxury New York gyms where Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss go to work out

To meet the demands of its toned A-list residents, New York boasts a wide range of gyms and workout spaces with luxury facilities that would rival a 5 star hotel.

For fitness fanatics who want to guarantee their next boutique workout class is Victoria’s Secret Angel approved, there's an endless range of inventive classes on offer, from ice cold workouts at Brrrn to sweaty, candlelit hip-hop yoga at Y7.

Depending on your level of energy (let's face it, we all have days when we'd rather lie down on a yoga mat) you can try out specialized reformer pilates, trampoline bouncing at FitHouse or dance at Sculpt Studios. As you might expect, New York's luxury workout spaces are pretty beautiful places to hang out in too, with high ceilings, skyline views of New York City, juice bars and state-of-the-art 'recovery areas' too.

Recently, there has been a boom in luxury gym openings of the Equinox-type (including a new 60,000 square foot Equinox at Hudson Yards). Nexus Club features a full gym and all the wellness and dining amenities necessary to satisfy your post-workout relaxation needs. Ghost Gym refers to to its facility as a "fitness lounge," playing on the idea that it's not just a luxury gym but also a hang-out. The Well is a new addition to the wellness craze as well, offering meditation and healing treatments, along with their luxe gym facilities.

Unlike restaurants and nightclubs, New York's most exclusive fitness studios don't have VIP entrances, so you'll probably end up bumping into a VS Angel or New York socialite after a spin class - hair up, baseball cap on, gaze firmly planted at the floor.

Scroll through to see the best places to get your sweat on in the city, ranging from modelFIT’s dance cardio classes to Rumble Boxing, which was famously frequented by both Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez (although it's doubtful both attend at the same time these days). Just make sure you obey international gym etiquette rules by not talking to anyone when they're in the zone.
