This private-member athletic club is slated to open in Hoboken in the spring of 2026, according to a Facebook post. There are seven other locations across Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Some of the things included in a membership are run club and coaching, personal coaching, additional classes on top of training with a dedicated squad, WhatsApp group for support, and other community events and groups.
The Drip | 1427 Grand Street
The Drip is a Hoboken favorite, making people leave classes dripping with sweat at the downtown location. The Pilates studio opened a second location in Uptown Hoboken.
