Introducing Thailand's first innovative, highly effective, targeted fat-burning treatment HYPOXI studio and elegant ballet-inspired fitness class LES MILLS BARRE

Jetts 24 Hour Fitness has unveiled a new club at Asoke, the first of three planned high-profile clubs at prime city-center locations just a few steps from BTS stations.

The new venue is also the first Jetts club in Bangkok to offer HYPOXI, a highly effective cellulite and fat-burning treatment, and introduce LES MILLS BARRE, a ballet-inspired fitness class ideal for improving core and building strength.

Other unique features of the Jetts Asoke club include being located in a stand-alone building, having a special floor for group exercise classes, and boasting a top-floor deck that serves as functional training area, PT training ground and a venue for occasional events and entertainment.

"The opening of the Jetts Asoke club marks our penetration into unbeatable locations in the heart of Bangkok's central business district, bringing utmost ease of convenience for our members," said Dane Cantwell, Country Manager at Jetts 24 Hour Fitness (Thailand).

"Spanning 1,008 sqm of space across a four-storey building with an investment of 50 million baht, the club makes it easier for members to navigate the cardio training zone and HYPOXI Studio on the 1st floor, cardio training zone on mezzanine floor, weight training zone on the 2nd floor, group exercise classes on the 3rd floor and free weight zone on the 4th floor," Cantwell explained.

"The top-floor deck is equipped with a line of functional training equipment for those who prefer breaking a sweat in a fresh and open air environment," he added. "The open space of the rooftop also makes it an ideal venue for training ground, parties and activities on weekends and special occasions."

The Jetts Asoke club is the first fitness center in Thailand to introduce HYPOXI training, an advanced, scientifically proven specialist body-shaping, cellulite and weight loss system.

"HYPOXI is the latest trend in cellulite and targeted fat reduction treatment that utilizes vacuum technology to target fat in the problem zones of the stomach, waist, hips, buttocks and thighs," Cantwell said. "This innovative treatment has already taken the international world of celebrities by storm by giving them the ability to achieve significant fat and cellulite reduction in less than 4 weeks. After its debut at Asoke club, we plan to have as many HYPOXI studios as we can in Jetts clubs across Thailand," he added.

Developed by a team of Austrian doctors, the treatment has been shown to result in an 80% improvement in fat metabolism in as little as 6 sessions. The beauty of HYPOXI is that a session takes just half an hour so you can achieve the body you want in your lunch hour, which makes it perfect for people with busy schedules. The treatment stimulates circulation in areas of the body which traditionally have poor blood supply, thereby accelerating fat metabolism in specific body zones. It has been proven to achieve up to three times greater circumference loss in the targeted area than that achieved with conventional training. The treatment is a vital link between exercise, blood circulation and fat metabolism.

Jetts is giving a special launch offer for HYPOXI package. Customers who apply for HYPOXI Fine Tune HDC Combo package for 12 sessions, Results HDC Combo package for 24 sessions and Transform HDC Combo package for 36 sessions (comprising HYPOXI-dermology session + HYPOXI-training) within 31 July 2019 will receive a special 10% discount.

Adisai Kunjara Na Ayudhya, a socialite and businessman who seeks to stay fit and toned, has welcomed the introduction of the new technique in Thailand. "I am a regular gym goer. But on days when you feel too exhausted to do your usual gym workout, HYPOXI is the right answer for a gentle yet effective exercise that really targets my problem areas like tummy, thighs and hips," Adisai said.

Niti Sawangwattanapaiboon, a celebrity businessman, added that "I was not very sporty person. But after a test training at HYPOXI Studio, I felt great! Personal approach by professional coach and private studio made it easier for me to adopt sporty lifestyle. The HDC Combo session gives me toned body as well as improved skin texture and tightened skin."

Pavenelak Limpichart, a health-conscious celebrity working woman said that "HYPOXI is a gentle exercise that suits everybody. No pain is felt during the treatment. Results are even more visible when I combine using the HYPOXI device with traditional exercise machines like the bike or elliptical trainer. It was wonderful to see the difference in my lower body within just 6 weeks. It also helps improve the appearance and smoothness of my skin and reduce my cellulite."

LES MILLS BARRE is a modern version of classic balletic training and has also been first introduced in Thailand at Jetts Asoke. The 30-minute workout is designed to shape and tone postural muscles and build core strength. Incorporating classic ballet positions, with modern music, LES MILLS BARRE is a combination of cardio and strength with high repetitions of small range-of-motion movements and very light weights. It's an elegant yet effective workout that helps participants develop the strength, poise and sculpted figure of a ballet dancer.

"If you're seeking a different style of training or a new kind of self-expression, you will love LES MILLS BARRE," Cantwell said. "Without the traditional barre to support you, the muscles supporting your body's stability and strength becomes the focus. It may look beautiful, but don't underestimate the burn. The workout helps the tone, shape and condition of your body with an elegant workout that targets the legs, glutes and core muscles. Feel a beautiful burn and a sense of grace as you escape the everyday."

Outdoor sport enthusiast Karn Chatikavanij is highly impressed with LES MILLS BARRE class. "I really enjoy the class. The exercise is low impact, beautiful yet combines intensive cardio moves, which gives the same burning sensation as outdoor workout. I feel light and relaxed after just 30 minutes of training. LES MILLS BARRE is ideal exercise for people with busy lifestyle."

Penpisa Chantawong, an athlete who says she seeks to explore new ways of workout to keep her body fit and strong, is likewise enthusiastic. "I love, love, love this class," she said. "Ballet dancers are among the world's strongest athletes, their grace and elegance shaped by focused, intense training. It's a great opportunity to do something different from the normal pumping and aerobic classes. Les Mills Barre gave me a buzz I hadn't had in years," Penpisa added.

"This is a unique class, totally unlike other barre classes," agreed Wichuda Sripongplerd, a prominent fashion model. "The absence of an actual barre really forces you to use your core and balance. What I like best is that you actually feel like a ballerina: the moves are all derived from actual ballet moves and vocabulary. It's very nice for those of us who would have loved to have been real dancers but never pursued it – you can try the real experience!"
