Are L.A.’s one-stop wellness spots the country clubs of the future? It seems so. Who wouldn’t love to head downtown to your favorite vegan restaurant with your laptop in tow to work, then hit up a yoga class, check out a pop-up shop filled with eco-friendly furniture, or catch up with friends over a bottle of organic, biodynamic wine. And what if you can do all that without giving up your parking spot in order to do so. Welcome to The Springsthe first new wave of one-stop wellness destinations that are cropping up around Los Angeles. In late July, this visionary Arts District space was joined by three-story yoga utopia Wanderlust Hollywood. A few days later, boutique/exercise studio/cooking school Vegan Scene debuted in Venice.

And in Culver City, juice shop and cry therapy spa, Cold & Thirsty recently opened in a storefront adjoining popular boutique fitness space Studio Elevate. Think of these spots as fresh takes on the neighborhood rec center, geared towards style and health conscious urbanites. You’ll find vinyasa flow sessions with live DJ’s, dance parties and themed movie nights. Fresh, local, gorgeously plated fare from some of LA’s most talented culinary pros are also on hand. Although some of the amenities may be offered at your local high-end gym or country club, the indie spirit is a huge draw…and so is the no monthly membership required at any of these places.
