Empire Portfolio Group ("Empire"), a leading Area Developer and Franchisee of Orangetheory® Fitness, the heart rate-based interval training fitness franchise, announced today it opened a new studio in the West Village in Manhattan. The new studio is located at 391 6th Avenue, New York, NY 10014, between West 8th Street and Waverly Place.
The West Village location marks the 6th studio owned and operated by Empire in Manhattan. Other studios are located in Chelsea, Midtown West, Hell's Kitchen and the Upper West Side. Two additional studios will also open later this year located in Bryant Park and TriBeCa.
The new 6,216 square-foot studio space will feature all new state-of-the-art equipment along with the coaching and proprietary in-studio and wearable fitness technology Orangetheory is known for globally. The studio will also introduce Orangetheory's new, personalized MaxHR algorithm, which updates heart rate zones in real time to provide even more accurate performance results. In addition, the studio's treadmills and rowers will be equipped with OTconnect technology, a new, proprietary platform which creates an ecosystem of data and feedback highlighting each member's total distance, average/max incline, max miles per hour, total moving time and more. The studio will celebrate its grand opening on March 1, 2023 and is currently offering discounted Founding Member rates.
"Dynamic fitness options are in high demand in New York City, and the West Village neighborhood, with its large population of energetic, health-conscious residents, is the perfect demographic fit for the workouts Orangetheory offers," said Empire's CEO, Adam Krell. "We are excited to bring Orangetheory's science-based, coach-led instruction to the West Village and help our members, whatever their fitness level, see measurable results."
