Fan Casting

She is the most followed fitness instructor in the world. Twenty million people do her workouts every morning. The ones who attend in person never quite leave. The Studio follows investigative journalist Camille Reyes, 30, who goes undercover at ELYSIAN — a luxury fitness studio in Los Angeles that began as a boutique spin and dance class and has become, over seven years, something the twelve thousand people who attend it in person are unable to easily describe or leave. Camille's investigation begins as a lifestyle piece about the wellness industry and becomes something much more serious when a former ELYSIAN member disappears and the studio's founder, Sasha Vane, seems unconcerned. Three seasons track Camille going deeper inside ELYSIAN — achieving the inner circle of membership, understanding the specific mechanics of how the studio creates psychological dependency, and trying to get out with both her story and herself intact. S1E1 — The Intake Camille's first class at ELYSIAN. The specific physical and psychological experience of a session. The instructor's eyes finding her across a room of forty. S2E6 — The Inner Circle Camille achieving ELYSIAN's inner membership tier. What she finds there and what it costs to find it. S3E10 — The Exit Series finale: Camille getting out. What she takes with her — the story, and the specific changes three years inside a cult-adjacent fitness studio make to a person who went in to observe.
