This meetup is for those people interested in sponsoring and joining a vegan based health, fitness, wellness, and social community center. The planned center will feature:
- A full gym with cardio machines, weight machines, and free weights.
- Group Pilates, yoga, aerobics, weight training, martial arts, meditation, and other classes.
- Dancing classes to include ballroom, jazz, and tap.
- Educational classes and speakers on nutrition, cooking, fitness, health, and plant-based lifestyles.
- Private rooms for independent alternative health practitioners.
- Social and educational gatherings such as potlucks, movie nights, outings, trips, etc.
The focus of this center is to teach people how to live a healthy and compassionate lifestyle while offering a social support network and a facility for vegan and animal-friendly activities.
The center will be paid for by membership dues like any health club. We anticipate that people interested in a vegan lifestyle will cancel their current gym memberships and join our center.
The location will be what is most convenient for the majority of members. But ideally, it will be something centrally located like the Garment District.
To obtain the financing for this center, we are looking for letters of intent or contracts from people who would be interested in joining. We need 200 - 300 individuals interested in joining to start this project.
We are anticipating a monthly rate of $80-$100 which is about average for a health club. The more people interested, the lower the rate will be.
If you want to help this center get started, please join this meetup and offer your feedback on this project. There is no commitment by joining.
Meetups will be scheduled for brainstorming sessions.
