Fight. Lift. Flow. Breathe. Recover.

More than martial arts. A higher standard.

At The Pelion, we condition the whole body. Martial arts builds technique and coordination. Weightlifting builds strength and muscle tone. Yoga brings flexibility and grounding. Breathwork brings mental control. And the thermal spa gives you the recovery to come back stronger. One membership. Everything an athlete needs. Every level welcome.

The return of the sanctuary

On Mount Pelion, the centaur Chiron trained legendary heroes like Achilles and Hercules through a combination of combat, philosophy, medicine and music. The Pelion exists to rebuild that sacred wellness sanctuary for the modern athlete.

Why we ask for a year.

The Pelion is built for people who are committed to their health and well-being. The body is a machine that responds to consistent, intelligent training, and the mind needs the same discipline to stay sharp and calibrated. Asking for that commitment brings together members who take the work seriously, so everyone who walks in raises the standard.

Questions

Before you reserve.

Why only $1, and is it refundable?

The $1 simply reserves your limited, discounted founding membership. Nothing else is charged until you sign in on opening day. If the facility does not meet your complete expectations when it opens, your $1 is returned.

How long does the founding rate last?

Your founding rate, $179 a month for VIP Founders or $199 a month for Core Founders, stays locked in for 12 months from the day we open, as long as your membership remains active and each payment is made within 7 days of its due date. After 12 months it moves to the Founder Alumni rate of $229 a month for as long as you stay a member. If you cancel, the founding and alumni rates are lost, and rejoining later is at the standard rate at that time.

Are there any other fees?

Every membership has a $49 yearly maintenance fee. Family packages pay one fee of $99 a year for the whole family. All-Access also has a $99 enrollment fee. VIP Founders pay no sign-up fee.

What is included in the membership?

Every tier includes unlimited, all-inclusive access to kickboxing and cardio kickboxing classes, the weight room for strength and conditioning, yoga classes, access to the breathwork studio and the recovery spa with sauna and cold plunge. Members also get free access to The Pelion app, with training programs, guided yoga and breathwork for the days you train away from the gym.

What is The Pelion app?

The Pelion app is free for every member. It has a kickboxing library to learn every punch, kick and defense by name, strength programs including five Ancient Warrior programs with their own soundtracks, guided yoga flows with an instructor on video, breathwork sessions from 12 to 45 minutes set to original music, a fasting timer and nutrition guides, plus the class schedule for members. It is coming to the App Store.

When do monthly payments start?

Only when the doors open. Your $1 holds the spot until then, and the rest is charged when you sign in on opening day.

Do I need experience in martial arts or yoga?

No. Classes are coached for every level, from your first session to competition prep.

Do you offer family or kids memberships?

Yes. Once The Pelion opens, the Family Gold package is $549 a month and the Family Silver package, without recovery, is $449 a month, each for 2 adults and 2 kids. Kids memberships start at $129 a month. Everyone on the list hears the details first.
