On Tuesday, Feb. 5, future residents of The Private Residences were able to preview Santé, the premier fitness and wellness center slated to open Monday, Feb. 11, in the lower level of The Chase Park Plaza. Guests were greeted by ownership and Santé management, all donning Santé-emblazoned workout attire. Guests were able to obtain membership cards (complementary Gold memberships are provided to all residents), enjoy fresh fruit smoothies, tour the Santé facility and schedule their complementary lifestyle assessments
The tour began with the Pilates and yoga studios. The Pilates studio contains Reformer equipment usually reserved for pure Pilates studios; no other St. Louis fitness facility features a full Pilates studio on-site. The more high-intensity classes, such as cycling, turbo kickboxing, boot camp and salsa dancing will be offered in separate studios. Thirty-minute lunch-hour classes will allow members to get a workout during the workday.
Residents next viewed the wood-paneled locker rooms. All of the amenities of home are available – hangers in the full-length lockers, hair care and body products, plush towels, daily newspaper service and for Platinum members, laundry service.
In-house massage rooms were also open; massage services will feature licensed massage therapists from The Salon & Spa at The Chase Park Plaza. Santé members will get a 10% discount on services.
Future residents Suzanne and Jerry Sincoff attended the preview. Upon seeing the reaction cycling room, Suzanne exclaimed, “The residents at The Chase are going to be in the best shape ever … and there’s no excuse why they shouldn’t be… with this facility located in their home.”
