It's still sweaty outside in Washington … so you might as well get sweaty inside, too, at a crop of new local fitness studios.

Why it matters: The DMV's boutique fitness scene is getting a Pilates-heavy refresh, with new studios offering everything from reformer classes to saunas and cold plunges.

The big picture: At least seven new fitness studios have opened around the region in recent months, including several national brands expanding into the DMV.

And more are on the way.

Here are some new workout spots to check out:

🥵 Jetset Pilates | Union Market: The Miami-based reformer Pilates studio opened its first D.C. location in May. (A 14th Street location is in the works, too.)

🥵 Rev'd | Navy Yard: This cycling and strength-training brand opened its first District location last month.

🥵 FS8 | Arlington, Alexandria: The first DMV locations of the spinoff from the group behind F45 opened earlier this year in Ballston and Old Town, blending yoga, Pilates, and low-impact training. (Another is coming to Takoma.)

🥵 Kalm Studio | Alexandria: The "wellness studio" opened last month near Old Town with hot yoga, mat Pilates, saunas, cold plunges, and red light therapy.

🥵 Studio Zo Pilates | Lorton: The Fairfax County studio opened last month with infrared mat Pilates classes — plus on-site childcare.

🥵 LG Movement | Bethesda: This recently opened Pilates studio offers reformer and Cadillac classes and was named Maryland's best Pilates studio by DC Magazine.

The bottom line: At least at a workout class, you can sweat in the A/C.
