Downtown fitness fiends who frequent the barre will have to wait another month for Pop Physique's playlist-powered workouts. Per a recent email blast, the Silver Lake-bred chain's derriere-sculpting studio at DTLA's PacMutual building is "opening late August."

As far as that location in Pasadena's stylish foodie-filled Indiana Colony, the soon-to-be-bicoastal barre studio tells a Pop superfan on Instagram that it'll open "soonish it's a race let's see who opens first"—but the cool complex tweeted a few days ago that a fall opening is expected. About that Venice #buttschool: although PP is keeping mum on the exact coordinates, this listing gives us reason to suspect the space will land somewhere by healthy grub spot Lemonade at Abbot Kinney and Venice Boulevards.
