Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues Geneva has launched an exciting new collaboration with Kalon, a Parisian fitness brand that has designed workouts led by a team of professional coaches who are exclusively from the cabaret and dance industries.

Combining elements of Pilates, ballet and cardio exercises, Kalon’s Cardio Barre sculpts long, lean muscles to create a svelte physique and graceful posture like that of a professional dancer, without the need to know how to dance. Kalon’s innovative approach brings an element of art and performance to fitness, with coaches exclusively from renowned theatres and cabarets worldwide.

“It’s a great honour for us to partner with Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues, a landmark hotel in Geneva renowned for its unique approach to wellness through niche collaborations and visionary Spa protocols. At Kalon, we constantly strive for excellence, setting our standards high to deliver exceptional service,” comments Kalon co-founder Sophie Fourçans-Dibdin.

At check-in, guests receive a special amenity welcome card with a QR code and unique passcode that unlocks 72 hours of online access to workouts led by professional Kalon coaches. Elegant, glamorous and sophisticated, Kalon fitness trainers are experts at improving self-esteem and motivation, increasing feelings of positivity, boosting body confidence and making guests feel beautiful inside and out.

Accessible to all levels, Cardio Barre offers a fun and glamorous approach to fitness that uses high repetition and low weight to tone the body, providing fast, long-lasting results. Small isometric movements work the muscles without bulking them to create a strong core and lean, toned physique while improving posture and enhancing femininity with graceful movements. Playlists featuring carefully selected songs based on BPM (beats per minute) perk up energy levels, creating lively, easy-to-follow classes.

Upon logging into the app, guests can select their desired fitness objectives and choose which areas of the body they wish to work on in the comfort and privacy of their room. Hotel rooms and suites are equipped with yoga mats where guests can comfortably work out in their own time and at their own pace. The Kalon app can be synced with the in-room TV, allowing guests to follow Kalon workouts on a large screen.

“We are delighted to have partnered with Kalon to offer female travellers a new way of working out from the comfort of their room, with the added flexibility of doing so at whatever time they wish. This special program reflects our objective to offer guests the most innovative wellness practices available,” states Martin Rhomberg, Regional Vice President and General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues.

To launch this exciting new program, Kalon fitness coaches will carry out complimentary in-person Cardio Barre sessions at Four Seasons Hotel des Bergues between September 19 and 23, and October 17 and 21, 2022, giving Spa members and Hotel guests the unique chance to take part in friendly and dynamic in-person sessions. In September, the Hotel will also host a Vitamin Breakfast, where Spa members will be able to converse with Kalon coaches in person and meet face to face with founders Sophie and Emma to find out more about this sensually sculpting workout.
