LA Fitness Completes $1.4 Million Renovation at Indianapolis Pendleton Pike Club
The Lawrence-Pendleton Pike location reopened August 21 with a new Pilates studio, expanded free weights, and upgraded recovery amenities.
LA Fitness has reopened its Lawrence-Pendleton Pike club in Indianapolis following a $1.4 million renovation. The location at 9930 Pendleton Pike officially welcomed members back on August 21, 2026. The project touched nearly every corner of the facility, from the fitness floor to the locker rooms and pool area.
LA Fitness is operated by Fitness International and ranks among the largest health club chains in North America, with hundreds of locations across the US and Canada. The brand offers a broad range of amenities under one roof, including group fitness classes, pools, racquetball courts, and personal training, at a mid-market price point. Fitness International has been expanding its boutique-within-a-club model in recent years, adding branded specialty studios to existing locations rather than building standalone facilities.
"These improvements reflect our ongoing focus on giving members the best possible experience as they work toward their health and fitness goals." — Jill Hill, President of Club Operations, Fitness International
The renovation brought a significant number of changes to the Indianapolis location. Members will find:
The Pendleton Pike corridor on Indianapolis's northeast side serves a broad residential catchment that includes Lawrence and surrounding neighborhoods. The area has grown steadily over the past decade, and the club's footprint reflects demand for a full-service fitness facility that doesn't require a drive to the city center. Adding boutique options like Pilates gives members reasons to stay within the club rather than splitting memberships across multiple studios.
LA Fitness membership pricing is set at the local club level and was not detailed in the renovation announcement. Prospective members can contact the Lawrence-Pendleton Pike club directly or visit the LA Fitness website to check current rates and any promotional offers tied to the reopening.
The Indianapolis project is part of an ongoing investment by Fitness International in its existing club portfolio. Rather than relying on new builds alone, the company has been channeling capital into upgrading established locations with modern equipment and expanded specialty spaces. The addition of Pilates studios to existing clubs has appeared at multiple LA Fitness locations across the country as the brand competes with standalone boutique studios.
For existing members, the reopened club offers more variety without a change in membership. The addition of Pilates, a dedicated functional training zone, and new glute-specific equipment addresses a range of training styles that a standard gym floor doesn't always cover. The flooring and sauna upgrades are less flashy but address the day-to-day comfort that keeps members coming back.
The Lawrence-Pendleton Pike LA Fitness is located at 9930 Pendleton Pike, Indianapolis, IN 46236. The club is open now. For current hours, membership options, and class schedules, visit the LA Fitness website or stop by the club directly.
