The James Hotels have partnered with New York boutique fitness brand ChaiseFitness to introduce a fitness program designed for health-conscious travelers who want to maintain wellness routines and discover unique city experiences while on the road.
As part of The James Hotels’ Urban Wellness initiative, The James New York and The James Chicago now offer ChaiseFitness’ ReinventYOU workouts. Aimed at guests who prefer to stay active away from home, the collaboration provides on-demand streaming workout sessions in guest rooms. The series includes four 20-minute workouts focused on lengthening, strengthening and improving posture.
“At ChaiseFitness, we are passionate about sharing our modern approach to fitness and health, and firmly believe that you should never have to sacrifice a great workout when you are traveling,” said Rachel Piskin, co-founder of ChaiseFitness. “This summer, we are delighted to be uniting with such a like-minded partner to expand wellness options for guests of The James and to share the virtual version of our signature body-transforming workouts.”
For travelers who prefer an in-person experience, ChaiseFitness is running rooftop summer classes at The James New York. Through Aug. 25, the ChaiseFitness Summer Series takes place on selected Tuesdays, offering 45-minute ReinventYOU sessions led by senior ChaiseFitness instructors on the hotel’s rooftop, which offers panoramic views of Manhattan. Both guests and local residents can attend, and each month one class will be taught by ChaiseFitness co-founder Rachel Piskin. Classes focus on movements that target the waistline, enhance posture and strengthen the core.
The ReinventYOU video series from ChaiseFitness is available for in-room on-demand streaming at The James New York and The James Chicago. The Summer Series at The James New York runs on select Tuesdays at 8 a.m. through August. Classes are complimentary for hotel guests when arranged through the concierge. Non-guests are welcome to participate for a fee of $25 per class.
