Love Your Life. Love Our Planet.
From collaborating on energy-saving light bulbs and low-flow showerheads to increasing efficiencies in steam rooms, we are constantly looking for new ways to reduce the impact on the planet.
"We are committed to reducing our environmental impact by implementing advanced technologies and process improvements across our facilities."

stewardship goals.
of Innovation
In 2016, we partnered with manufacturers to custom engineer LED lamps that last longer, emit more light and consume up to 50% less electricity. This upgrade has saved enough energy to power 3,200 homes a year.
Efficiency
By converting steam rooms to a "steam on demand" system, we cut energy consumption in all clubs. As a bonus, we use less eucalyptus oil, preserving our natural resources and diverting waste from landfills.
Renewable Energy
Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems at Westchester, New York, and Mount Laurel, New Jersey, clubs are offsetting electricity consumption by approximately 15-20%. We're also installing a PV system at our new club in Princeton, New Jersey.
a Time
In 2010, we worked with a manufacturer to replace each of our 3,000 showerheads with a low-flow, stainless steel model. The installation reduced the flow by 45% — saving enough water to fill 165 Olympic-sized pools every year.
