How to cancel LA Fitness— and check you're not still being charged
LA Fitness memberships are a top source of 'zombie' charges for people who joined and stopped attending.
Steps to cancel LA Fitness
- 1Sign in at lafitness.com/Pages/Login.aspx (the Member Login page — it asks for Username and Password, not an email).
- 2Open My LA Fitness at lafitness.com/Pages/memberServices.aspx?task=CustomerManagement.
- 3Click the Cancellation Form link in the left side menu (lafitness.com/Pages/memberServices.aspx?task=CancellationManagement).
- 4Complete the form with your name, membership barcode number and signature, and submit or print it.
- 5If mailing it, send written notice to P.O. Box 54170, Irvine, CA 92619 — LA Fitness recommends registered or certified mail and keeping a copy.
- 6Time it so the notice is postmarked at least 5 business days before your next billing date; alternatively cancel in person at a club by handing written notice to the front desk.
- 7Cancel any personal training agreement separately — it is its own agreement — via your club or the Contact Us page at lafitness.com/Pages/ContactUs.aspx.

A personal training or other services agreement is a separate contract from your gym membership — cancelling the membership does not end it, and if it had an initial term of three months or more and you quit before that term is up, a termination fee applies. Freezing at $10/month is also pushed as the alternative, and a freeze is not a cancellation.
Will LA Fitness still charge you after you cancel?
You can still use the club for any pre-paid time. If you pre-paid your last month's dues when you enrolled, LA Fitness applies those dues to the month following your final recurring payment, so the membership expires at the end of that extra month rather than on the day you cancel.
Refunds: If your mailed notice is postmarked within 5 business days of the next billing date you may be billed once more, and LA Fitness states it will refund that additional billing.
LA Fitness runs $29.99–$49.99/mo — 45% more than the average gym subscription we track (~$27/mo across the gym services we track). Before you cancel, check whether you're also still paying for Planet Fitness, Planet Fitness Black Card — a common overlap in the same category.
The only way to be sure a cancellation stuck is to look at your statement. Finletix reads a CSV, PDF, or screenshot and flags every recurring charge — including LA Fitness, duplicates, and silent price hikes — without ever touching your bank login.
