The Sports Club/LA Miami

The Sports Club/LA in Miami remains the city’s top-tier destination for fitness enthusiasts of all stripes -- be it yoga, cardio training, weights fanatics or dance class aficionados.   Located adjacent to the new Four Seasons Miami right on Brickell Avenue, this Sport Club/LA draws discerning resident and traveling fitness enthusiasts who want the full-range of equipment and services in a world-class facility.

T he architecture and design of The Sports Club/LA certainly reflects the surrounding spirit and lifestyle of Miami itself. Visitors enter by way of a Grand Lobby that overlooks a four-story waterfall.  Herein lies an interior that remains frequently open to the dramatic vistas created by the intersecting urban and ocean surfaces, from the 10,000 square foot Weight Training Gym with its views of Biscayne Bay to the Jacuzzi and tropical Sundeck which also overlook the Bay.  After all, here is an outdoor environment with plenty to inspire and motivate the active-minded with the opportunities of its beaches and harbors and the glittering adjacent shoreline.  At the same time, the Club’s interior design provides areas of tranquility, privacy and relaxation from the urban hum – be it the cool corners of the bar and refreshment areas or unwinding in one of the private therapy rooms. While the spaces given to weight training and cardio exercise sound enormous, in fact they are put to very efficient use and access.  Thus in the 10,000 square foot Weight Training Gym, the muscle and form-conscious will find a comprehensive range of equipment in both weight training machines and free weights, including Cybex®, Excalibur®, FreeMotion®, Hoggan®, Icarian®, Abench®, Life Fitness®, and Iron Grip®. For cardiovascular conditioning, the 3,000 square foot Cardiovascular Center provides the ultimate in maintaining a healthy heart and circulation. You can choose from among a hundred  pieces of the most advanced computerized cardiovascular equipment available today including treadmills, bikes, stair climbers, recumbent bikes, rowing machines, Versa Climbers®, upper body ergometers, cross conditioners, Precor EFX’s®, Cycle Pluses® and more.  Keeping the interactive quality to each session even more stimulating is the audio visual technology, with stereo music and television viewing at each cardiovascular machine equipped with a BroadcastVision personal television.
