Welcome to Orangetheory Fitness, the most science-backed and results-oriented fitness concept in the nation! Orangetheory Fitness is a one-of-a-kind group workout broken into intervals of cardiovascular and strength training using a variety of equipment including treadmills, rowing machines, TRX suspension training and free weights to tone your body and gain energy throughout the day.

This intense training program, backed by the science of target zone heart-rate monitoring, has been featured in the New York Times and is touted as the 'best one hour workout in the country', whereby participants of all different ability levels burn up to 1000 calories in a 60 minute session.

Jobs That Make a Real Difference
About Us

Orangetheory is a science-based, full-body workout that uses technology to measure performance so members can prove they are improving. In a 60-minute class, led by a highly trained and certified coach, members target at least twelve minutes in the Orange Zone to raise their heart rate and charge up metabolism. The result is an increase in calorie burn post-workout, backed by the science of excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). After twelve minutes of hard work in the Orange Zone, your body burns additional calories as you recover over the next 24 hours.
Our Philosophy

For us, physical fitness transcends weight loss and bikini season. Fitness is a way of life -- in fact, our brand purpose is to help people live longer, more vibrant lives. When we help our members to put in the work at our studios, they will experience benefits in their day-to-day. They will be physically stronger, but beyond that, they will notice improvements to their mood, cognition, sleep, and overall happiness and quality of life. This workout actually changes your body at the cellular level and has been known to help members through disease, chronic illness, depression, and even heartbreak and the loss of loved ones. They'll simply have the energy to play with their grandchildren, run a 5K, or go hiking. When we can help our members to take care of their body and mind, amazing things can happen.
