The brand marks this milestone in partnership with key franchisee West Coast Fitness

Today, on the heels of its twelve-year anniversary, Orangetheory® Fitness announced the opening of its 1500th studio. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, Orangetheory – which has studios in 26 countries and all 50 states in the U.S. - welcomed more than half a million brand new members in 2021. This is one of several big moments Orangetheory has celebrated so far this year, along with the opening of a new flagship studio in Manhattan and the announcement of a year-long partnership with world-renowned artist, DJ and producer, Steve Aoki as the brand's Chief Music Officer.

"We couldn't be prouder to celebrate this milestone as a company, and to do it in partnership with such a dedicated and wonderful franchisee is the icing on the cake," said Dave Long, Chief Executive Officer of Orangetheory Fitness. "The West Coast Fitness team is truly committed to bringing the one-of-a-kind Orangetheory experience to all of their members, and the opening of the Mar Vista studio will help extend that even further."

The new 3,200 square foot studio space will feature all new state-of-the-art equipment and the proprietary in-studio and wearable fitness technology Orangetheory is known for globally, as well as beautifully adorned bathrooms with full showers and a large lobby area for members to socialize before and after class. The studio will celebrate its grand opening all month long with an official grand opening celebration all day on Monday March 14, 2022.

"Every studio, especially in our hometown of Los Angeles, has its own special community, and we love to celebrate diversity and each locations' unique qualities while also maintaining the consistency and unparalleled member experience expected by the global Orangetheory community," said Paul Marcus, West Coast Fitness CEO and Founder. "We are excited to be able to offer the amazing Orangetheory experience to even more Los Angeles residents with the Mar Vista studio opening while marking a major milestone with opening of the brand's 1500^th studio overall. Since we opened the first Los Angeles Orangetheory studio in Brentwood in 2014, we have loved bringing MORE LIFE to our L.A. home."

West Coast Fitness owns and operates more than 47 Orangetheory Fitness studios in California and Ohio. This is West Coast Fitness' 14^th studio in Los Angeles and 39^th in California.
