Workouts with the best music in Toronto that keep the energy up

Try ClassPass Learn about our methodology

Every studio on this list earned its position the same way: by accumulating strong music and energy-specific ClassPass member reviews over a full year. The data window runs January 2025 to February 2026, the review pool is 4,658 entries, and the 10 studios that qualified represent a real cross-section of Toronto's music and energy market, from cycling, dance fitness, Lagree from Markham to Vaughan.

Ratings run 4.23 - 4.98. The gap between studios is smaller than it looks, which reflects how competitive Toronto's top tier has become. What separates them isn't scale. It's the consistency of the review signal for music and energy specifically.
