Uplift Studios (CLOSED)

Between small-group classes (topping out at 12 people), hands-on personal training and a locker room that's more stocked with toiletries—saline solution, makeup remover and mouthwash, in addition to the usual amenities—than a Duane Reade, it's hard to find a single downside to this women's fitness studio. The three signature classes include strength; HIIT; and the low-impact, yoga-inspired Sculpt Fusion—with instructors keeping an eye on correct form and providing modifications to anyone who needs them. Keep an eye out for its special events like wine-and-workout classes, book-club chats, and day trips to Long Beach or Cold Spring. Price: First class $20, single class $34, five-class pack $160, ten-class pack $305, 20-class pack $580, monthly unlimited $350, off-peak five-class pass $99.
