Full Opening Coming Up!

May 5, 2021

Dear Members,

May 1st marked Ballard Health Club’s 23rd Anniversary. This milestone looked rather improbable a few times during the past year, and it is great to be able to write to you now. It was March 2020 since our last full newsletter was published. Today’s newsletter is another step we are taking to move closer to normal operations.

Yesterday, Governor Inslee made the announcement that we will remain in Phase 3 of the state’s reopening plan, versus being put back to Phase 2, as was the prediction prior to his announcement. Now that we know we do not have to take a step back we may plan on moving forward. 

 Within the next month, we will be opening the Club to allow members to come anytime during our business hours. This means you will no longer have to book an Open Gym session, and instead, just show up to work out. Our business hours will be 5:30am to 10pm weekdays and 8am to 8pm Saturday and Sunday. The exact date for this full opening of the Club is not yet set as we are working on getting staff in place to support it, but it will happen soon and be announced on our website.

When we are fully opened – here are some changes to membership.

  • Basic Memberships will allow 4 visits versus the current 3 per week.

  • PLUS Memberships will have unlimited visits.

  • Unlimited Memberships will revert to PLUS Memberships and we will adjust the monthly dues to the reduced PLUS membership rate.

Making changes to your membership may be done online on the Member Services page on the BHC website at > BHC Member Services. You may also ask a staff person at the front desk to do this for you.

Our Virtual Classes have been going strong for a year now. We are working on plans to bring classes back inside the Club, and as we do so, we plan on continuing to keep them available online. To check out our selection of 50+ virtual classes a week visit BHC Virtual Classes

We are currently beta testing a new online class option called “Video on Demand”. These are recordings of many of our classes that are made available as an added benefit to your PLUS membership. To view and use these classes, click on the My BHC link on the BHC home page and then click on the VIDEO ON DEMAND tab.

We are looking forward to a great summer in Seattle at BHC!

Sincerely, 

Pat Gilbrough
