How the fees fit together

Your first payment is usually not the same as your monthly dues. To see the full picture, add the initial payment and the recurring charges in the first-year cost calculator or read the first-year cost guide.

For each fee in detail: annual fee, initiation fee and monthly cost.

Verify before you join. Amounts, fees and offers differ by club and change over time. We do not publish a single national price. Confirm every figure on your club’s current enrollment page at lafitness.com and in the agreement you sign.

Questions to ask before you sign

  • Which fees are one-time and which recur?
  • When is the annual fee charged and how often?
  • What is due today, in total?
  • What happens to the price if a promotion ends?
  • Are there fees to freeze or cancel? See the freeze guide and cancellation guide.
