As studio owners, we romanticise the idea of having our own members — a loyal community with genuine connections and personal service.

But over the last decade, group fitness has become so diverse that while prices kept rising, clients began craving the freedom to combine different workouts from different studios instead of committing to just one.

Platforms like ClassPass and Urban Sports Club filled that gap, offering flexible memberships clients loved — but they also weakened the direct relationships studios once had with their members, while studios became increasingly dependent on them for revenue.

And we totally get it: your body craves different workout styles, and your mind needs variety to stay motivated. Our focus is solely on barre because we want to give you the highest possible quality — but true boutique studios, by nature, can’t offer everything under one roof. For many, third-party platforms felt like the only option.

Yet somewhere along the way, we went from personal interactions at the front desk to silent check-ins through apps and QR-codes. You went from our personal customer service to dealing with third-party helpdesks.
And studios went from being financially self-reliant, to unsustainably dependent and exploited by corporate giants.

This is not the culture we envisioned when we opened our studio and we want to try transitioning out of this.

So, it’s time to adapt. Times have changed, and so must memberships. If we want to rebuild those genuine connections and regain our independence, we need to offer you a new structure.

✨ Introducing the Mini Membership ✨
4 class credits per month — €39
6 class credits per month — €54

Made for those who don’t need a full membership but still want to be part of our community — allowing you to combine workouts from different studios, while still supporting us directly.

It’s more than just a membership - it’s a movement to support independent fitness culture.

Last month we celebrated the 5th anniversary of our very first studio, which for us has been one of those moments in life where you take a second to reflect. Celebrating is fun, but it’s just as important to use these moments as opportunities to look back on what you have achieved, to check in on what it is you stand for, and how you want to move forward.

When we started FORM it was just the two of us, and although we have acquired an elite team of diverse trainers who you all know and love, we are proud to say that at after all these years, at the end of the day, it’s still us two: still personally training every instructor, creating every playlist, answering every email, fixing every leak, tightening every screw and still paying off the loans we had to take out to get this company off the ground.

There is no one else. No foreign investors, no board of directors, no faceless corporation or absent CEO. What you see is what you get - and what you got is the same two, fully invested, hands-on, small business owners as the day we started, and we’re pretty damn proud of that.

We’ve never used expensive marketing campaigns, luxury or fluff to lure clients in or to convince you that we’re the best. All we’ve ever tried, and will continue to try, is to offer a high quality class that is both tough and fun. We got where we are now because of the consistency in our team and in our classes - word of mouth did the rest.

The fitness industry has changed a lot since we started - both in the way it’s being offered as well as in the way it is consumed. Because we started this company from scratch with nothing but passion and craft, we care way too much about our principals to give in to certain trends and habits. As a result, our studios, classes and policies may not resonate with everyone and that’s okay. We feel incredibly fortunate to have catered to an amazing group of passionate students so far and we feel confident that our brand’s genuine atmosphere and tone will continue to attract the right crowd.

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us on our journey 🤍 Let’s keep getting sweaty

With pride and gratitude,
Italy and Satchel

What We’re About

After operating out of various temporary pop-up spaces for over a year, FORM has finally opened its first studio in Amsterdam on the Eerste Oosterparkstraat! At FORM, we offer dynamic, technique-based barre and yoga classes, where we focus on body awareness and proper ex*****on - because above all else, we believe that executing the right form leads to results.

And we love results.

Now, let's get sweaty.
