katecracknell@leisuremedia.com ELEMENTS opens two new clubs
The new Munich club has a high-end finish, and offers a ladies-only section within its 1,300sq m spa
ELEMENTS – the high-end health club spa brand from Migros, which opened its first club in Munich, Germany, in early 2013 – has opened two further sites. The second club opened in Stuttgart in
October, with the third site opening in Munich – the city’s second ELEMENTS – in November. The 3,800sq m Stuttgart club offers a
230-station gym, plus functional training and body analysis. There are also three group exercise studios. All members have access to the results-based ELEMENTS workout programme, developed by scientists at the University of Zurich. Facilities in the Stuttgart spa area include a
Finnish sauna, massage shower, steamroom and relaxation area.
In addition to the gym and spa offering, the
club also offers a 750sq m hammam facility. ELEMENTS members can enjoy the hammam for an additional fee of just €4 (giving them a towel, peeling glove, water bowl and tea). Other treatments are also available, including hammam massages and full-body mud pack (Rasul). Day guests are also welcome to use the hammam at a cost of €28 for the day. The 4,700sq m Munich club includes
facilities such as a rock climbing wall, relaxation pool and exercise pool offering aqua classes. There’s also a ladies-only section in the 1,300sq m spa, where facilities include a Finnish sauna, steamroom, bio sauna, salt steamroom, relaxation pool and spa pool. Childcare is available at both new clubs.
Profile Health & Fitness opens in Malta
Profile Health & Fitness Club, an independent operation owned by Paul Sansome, opened its second location in November. The new site – located in the Palace Hotel
in Sliema, Malta – follows the success of the inaugural club, which has been operating in the Hilton Euston in London, UK, for 13 years. The focus is on achieving balance for total
wellness, with bespoke lifestyle plans that include functional movement screening, dietary analysis, biological age testing and DNA testing. The Malta club has also partnered with a neighbouring private hospital to offer tests such as blood lipid profiling and chest X-rays.
January 2014 © Cybertrek 2014 The 280sq m club offers a functional
training studio, gym, rooftop group exercise area, indoor pool with relaxation lounge, rooftop infinity pool with poolside sushi bar, and sauna/steam/UV cabins. Suppliers include Technogym, Jordan and Nike. Membership costs €1,250–€1,800 a year.
Although a package is available that doesn’t include personal training, at this stage the club has a 100 per cent uptake on PT. An executive lifestyle management programme is also available for business travellers. Sansome now has plans for further locations: three more in Malta and one in Beijing.
