Club Studio Fitness is bringing a second Irvine location to 3949 Portola Parkway, and the draw is not just more gym space. The club is being built as a hybrid wellness site with dedicated rooms for yoga, Pilates, cycling, boxing, interval training and recovery, giving local practitioners a place where class time and post-workout care sit under one roof.

Club Studio’s own locations page lists the Portola Parkway club as coming soon, alongside its existing Irvine site at 5715 Alton Parkway. The brand says it was founded in 2022 in Irvine and was designed to bring boutique studio classes and wellness services into one gym, a formula that first took root when Fitness International opened the original Irvine Club Studio at Oak Creek Shopping Center in December 2022.

The Portola Parkway project already has a formal path through city review. The City of Irvine Planning Commission approved a health club use and a minor building addition for Club Studio at 3943 and 3949 Portola Parkway in Planning Area 1, Orchard Hills. The proposed club was placed at roughly 18,300 square feet, and the site is expected to replace a shuttered CVS Pharmacy at Orchard Hills Shopping Center near Portola Parkway and Culver Avenue.

That setting matters. Irvine Company presents Orchard Hills Shopping Center as an upscale retail center that combines groceries, fitness and health care, which matches the kind of membership club Club Studio is building. Instead of a single-room yoga studio or a stand-alone weight room, the company is betting on a format that lets members flow from practice to strength work to recovery without leaving the property.

For yoga users, the recovery piece is the clearest difference. The Irvine concept includes infrared sauna, massage chair, tanning bed, massage guns and low-back release tools, adding post-class options that are usually spread across separate businesses. That puts yoga alongside Pilates and cycling in a broader performance-and-recovery package, one that is built for people who want a single stop for training, mobility and downtime.

Club Studio is also widening its California footprint beyond Irvine, with its locations page listing or flagging sites in Costa Mesa, Long Beach, Fontana, Los Gatos and Oakland. But the Irvine expansion keeps the brand anchored in the city where it started, and the Portola Parkway club extends the same all-in-one model already taking shape at the original Alton Parkway location.
