In addition to an open gym, ‘t Groen Kwartier will also have room for wellness and holistic treatments. “Stokers will become a third space next to work and home, where exercise is a natural part of daily life. It is not just about living longer, but also about living better,” say Vincent Stevens, Roy Vermeulen and Tiffany Stevens, the three behind the sports club.
Healthy food and drinks cannot be missed. A dining facility will soon open that will be accessible to both members and the general public. How exactly this will be implemented remains a surprise for the time being.
With the arrival of The Brick Stokers, the PAKT site is becoming a true hotspot for athletes. For example, CrossFit has been located there for years next to Caffenation, and Rite will soon bring pilates, spinning and HIIT to the chapel of the old military hospital. “The new location is not a break with the existing offering, but a logical expansion due to the increasing demand for memberships.” Anyone who is already a member of The Brick can rest easy: the membership card also gives access to the Green Quarter. The branch will open in the spring, but there is no exact opening date yet.
