The LIV Method plans to open a 12,000-square-foot studio at 2 Gansevoort in Manhattan in January 2027. The location will be the New York boutique fitness brand’s third in the city and its largest to date, with private, semi-private and group training alongside recovery amenities.
The LIV Method plans to open a 12,000-square-foot studio at 2 Gansevoort in Manhattan in January 2027, adding a third New York City location and the brand’s largest studio yet. The family-owned boutique fitness operator says the site will offer its private, semi-private and group training, plus recovery amenities, in the Meatpacking District and West Village area.
The new studio will be located at 2 Gansevoort, in a building described in the report as a designated New York City landmark and part of the Greenwich Village Historic District. The real estate deal was brokered by Dennis Healthcare, according to Athletech News. At 12,000 square feet, the site will be larger than the brand’s existing studios.
Planned services include the LIV Method’s one-to-one, semi-private and group training sessions, along with cold plunges, a sauna and practitioner treatments. The company describes its approach as centered on individual assessments of clients’ strengths and weaknesses, followed by strength, cardio and dynamic mobility work. Its stated focus is injury prevention and performance optimization; those are descriptions of the brand’s methodology, not independently established outcomes.
Founders Matt Sauerhoff and chief operating officer Danielle Krinsky said in a joint statement to Athletech News that the company sees the site as a community presence, rather than simply another studio. The business is described as family-owned, family-operated and self-funded. Its first two New York locations are in Midtown East and the Upper East Side.
A Third Studio Reaches Downtown Manhattan
The opening would take the LIV Method beyond its existing Midtown East and Upper East Side locations and into the Meatpacking District and West Village area. For current and prospective clients, the announcement points to a new option combining training formats with recovery services; the studio’s planned size also gives the company room to offer a broader mix of facilities than a smaller training space might accommodate.
The development is also a marker of the brand’s expansion strategy. A third location in a different Manhattan neighborhood could help the operator reach a new local customer base while testing whether its model can support further growth. The company has said it may enter markets outside New York over time, but has not announced a location or timetable for expansion beyond the city.
From Midtown and the Upper East Side
The LIV Method is a New York-based boutique fitness operator offering private, semi-private and group training. Its current city locations are in Midtown East and the Upper East Side, putting the planned Gansevoort studio in a separate part of Manhattan. The address therefore represents an expansion into a new neighborhood, rather than an additional site near one of its existing studios.
The company’s established locations also offer IV therapy, according to the report. The announcement for 2 Gansevoort lists cold plunges, a sauna and practitioner treatments as recovery amenities, but does not say whether IV therapy will be available there. The planned site is in a designated historic district, a detail relevant to its setting; the available report does not describe any specific construction or approval requirements.
““2 Gansevoort is the next neighborhood we call home. We don’t just enter a neighborhood; we become part of its fabric.””
— Matt Sauerhoff, founder of the LIV Method, and Danielle Krinsky, chief operating officer, in a joint statement to Athletech News
Services and Expansion Plans Still Open
The January 2027 opening date is a planned timeline, and the source report does not provide a specific day or further construction milestones. It also does not identify the practitioners who would provide treatments or detail the scope, schedule or pricing of services at the new studio.
It remains unclear whether the Gansevoort site will offer IV therapy, which is available at the brand’s other two locations, or whether all planned amenities will be operating when the studio opens. The company has expressed interest in entering markets beyond New York, but has disclosed no firm plans. The announcement also does not provide financial terms for the lease or projected membership and staffing figures.
Opening Preparations Through 2027
The next stated milestone is the studio’s planned opening in January 2027. Before then, further details may clarify the opening schedule, available services and membership arrangements; none are specified in the source report. Readers should treat the date and service lineup as current plans, rather than confirmation that the studio is already open.
The company has not announced a launch date for any location outside New York. Any broader expansion would depend on future decisions that have not yet been disclosed.
