Add your name to the waiting list for , the exclusive new $10,000-a-month wellness social club in Greenwich Village. L♐ocated in the landmarked Archive building at 676 Greenwich St., the flagship is at once a haute health retreat, luxury lounge and top-of-the-line gym powered by proprietary artificial intelligence. Mem☂bership is capped at just 250 VIPs.
“It’s very different from anythin🐼g that exists,” says , the former fitness tech entrepreneur and “Today Show” health correspondent who serves as Continuum’s CEO and presidentꦐ. “Our unique value proposition to remember is the integration of all these modalities at a very high level. We’re doing the homework for everybody, not just in developing the programming but in curating the actual experts that are going to work with them.”
Continuum is the latest entrant in the premium bespoke fitness sector. In May, for instance, Equinox introduced a $40,000-a-year “” program in partnership with lab-testing꧅ platform Function Healtᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚh.
Here’s how Continuum🍷 works. After joining (and paying the $10,000 initiation fee), members undergo a comprehensive data-driven “onboarding assessment” involving VO2 Max oxygen consumption testing, body composition scans, blood panels and sleep analysis. The baseline “knowledge set” is entered into AI, and a specialist designs a personalized wellness plan. Wearables and a compa🔯nion app continuously track the member’s progress, and the AI algorithm updates training and service recommendations in real time.
“Exercisﷺe is just one lever in this preventive health and wellness sphere,” says Halevy, pointing to Continuum’s focus on sleep, nutrition and recovery. “There’s a geometric return when it’s more than just exercise.”
Indeed, the p🦂rocess is holistic and geared toward optimal health and longevity.&nb▨sp;
“We’re in the business of preventative care,” says Tom Wingert, chief revenue officer and vice pre🍨sident, a Lululemon alum. “It’s a bit more of a scientific approach, which normally would be done in a clinical setting﷽.”
Members work out in the gym with personal tra⛦iners (called “human performance specialists”) on Strength equipment and treadmills.
“All of our [trainers and physical therapists] have masters or doctorates in their respective fields and at least five years of relevant experience as well,” says Halevy. “When you’re a consumer, it’s very difficult to ascertain whethe﷽r a trainer is qualified or not. Just because someone is certified, doesn’t mean they’re qualified,” he note𝔉s.
Recovery options include physical therapy and medi-spa treatments such as hyperbaric chambers, cold plunges, floats, Himalayan salt sauna, red-ligꦰht therapies, massage and IV vitamin drips.
Members can also relax in the downstairs lounge, an art- and plant-filled floor with work spaces, nap pods and a fresco-backed marble bar serving light fare and beverages. Between the plush sofas and glamour lighting, it reseꦰmbles the high design lobby of a five-star hotel.
New Y𒅌ork is just the first step in the brand’s expansion. Halevy is planning to add locations in Miami and Los Angeles as soon as next year.
Joining this club is the ultimate flex.&n💃bsp;
