The Sanctuary wellness club is scheduled to open its doors on April 1, 2027, at 1827 Yale Ave in Seattle. The facility, located in a former 24 Hour Fitness site, aims to serve local residents seeking a comprehensive space for both recovery and fitness.

Why it matters

Founder Glen Swain developed the $8 million facility to address a perceived lack of integrated fitness and recovery venues in the Pacific Northwest. The space combines traditional gym amenities with a co-working area and medical spa services for members.

The 45,000-square-foot facility represents an $8 million investment in local health infrastructure. Effectiveness and long-term member health outcomes for this multi-service model remain currently unmeasured.

Discuss any potential new wellness facility memberships with your doctor to ensure they safely integrate with your current fitness plan.
