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 tohelp 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. Theyll 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.More Orangetheory More LIFE.
