Mentioned this one as a new gym in the fall, through I'm speculating there was some gym drama, because while they were set for 'official open' the first week of December, they’re still in soft open. But that's good news for the people, here’s what they’re offering: a free trial class to new members and a 6 session package of classes for 288rmb. Both offers are valid before Feb 14 and limited to the first 100 go-getters. If interested WeChat: Mthd_Fitness or if you have any questions call: 173 1633 2926.

Went into more detail on this SF born franchise in the last column...but they've officially soft opened, adding a partial schedule that starts today. The first small group pilates class on machines you try is free. After that, they're still offering founder-priced packages, the first is 10 classes a month for 1,380rmb for 3 months (regular: 1,880rmb), or a 10 class package that can be used over 2 months for 1,680rmb (regular: 2,180rmb).
