ATHLEISURE LIST | BURKE WILLIAMS SPA

We enjoy beauty treatments tailored to our needs! Burke Williams' Chief of Treatments, Diane Hibbard talked with us about this spa. Although they launched in 1984, the origin of spa culture traces back to the healing properties of water. They embrace this tradition by offering a range of spa amenities designed to promote healing and wellness through water immersion. Their facilities boast an array of options, including showers, saunas, steam rooms, and jacuzzis, each meticulously crafted to enhance your journey to rejuvenation. Whether it's the simple relief of icing sore joints or the profound relaxation of submersion, water holds the power to soothe, heal, and restore your body, mind, and spirit. Across their 11 locations in California, Burke Williams integrates water experiences seamlessly into their serene settings, inviting you to embark on a transformative experience.

Guests can expect a sanctuary-like ambiance where their need for rest and rejuvenation is met with care. Each location offers a unique atmosphere and decor, providing a distinct and memorable experience. Quiet rooms offer tranquil spaces for relaxation, while the healing properties of water infuse the air, enhancing the sensory experience. From the soothing sounds of running water to the calming aroma of essential oils, every detail is meticulously curated to create a serene environment conducive to healing and renewal, enveloping guests in a cocoon of tranquility from the moment they arrive.

Treatments focus on 3 distinct intentions: Rest, Awaken, and Heal and you can choose the desired treatment that focuses on these categories.

For those seeking Rest, the Tranquility Massage incorporates sound bowls and can be followed by a Nourishing Facial and Luxe Pedicure. These treatments include extended massages and essential elements to help you escape the stresses of everyday life.

For those looking to Awaken their bodies, we suggest their Regenerate Facial which has cutting-edge technology in anti-aging treatment to awaken collagen production and promote skin renewal. Their Vitality Massage offers a transdermal delivery of Vitamin B12.

To Heal, their Deep Tissue Massage targets muscle recovery and repair, while the Rescue Facial addresses breakouts and blemishes, delivering powerful results for pain relief, skin damage, and other concerns.

Their co-ed lounge is a serene space designed for relaxation and enjoyment. Guests can unwind, socialize, and sip on tea while indulging in their spa experience.

ATHLEISURE LIST | LORELEY BEER GARDEN

We love a beer garden which originated in Bavaria and is an outdoor space with large picnic and communal tables where you can soak up the sun and enjoy cold beer and food. Loreley Beer Garden is in the LES and has a seasonal rotational floral installation and opened in 2003. It's open year-round and is heated in the winter and is a great place to hang out with friends in the summer.

Although you can enjoy an array of beers, Loreley also focuses on having a high quality food and beverage program. All their German imported beers have hundreds of years of tradition and perfection in their craft. They hand select every beer and only rotate 3 drafts each season. They sample over 30 new beers before selecting one draft line for one season. When it runs out, it's done for the season. They also work with local breweries on a series of collaborations of seasonal beers to fit their program.

This spring they will launch their first collaboration with Brooklyn's KCBC and brew their own Kölsch Style Ale which will be available here and at KCBC Brewer in Bushwick on draft and in cans. Also keep your eyes peeled at your local bodega in NYC. You can also enjoy Radeberger Pilsner which is available year around as well. Another beer to try is Köstritzer Schwarzbier, a dark lager - with a hint of chocolate.

In addition to beer, that have a high quality wine list and an array of seasonally rotating craft cocktails. We suggest the Nitro Cold Brew, Bourbon Sweet Tea, Frosé and if there is a chill in the air, the Bourbon Hot Chocolate is always a must-have!

In addition to German-inspired foods that features doughy soft-baked pretzels and authentic German sausages, there are other dishes on the menu. You can enjoy tacos, guacamole made fresh to order, a 1/2 lb burger with roasted tomatoes, sauteed onions, gouda on a pretzel bun, plus seasonal salads, cedar grilled salmon, portobello sandwiches and Beyond burgers. Their Brunch menu is something special with fresh Baked Cinnamon Rolls

to order, Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes with fresh strawberries and whipped

cream, Eggs Benedict on homemade potato pancakes, Schnitzel & Eggs, to name a few.

As we make plans to hang out with our friends, coworkers and family, they have a few events that we can keep an eye out for. Loreley Beer Garden will host the Spring Beer & Cocktail Festival with a spring floral installation, seasonal beers and spring cocktails. In May and June, they will host the NYC Summer Rosé Festival which features Rosé everything! This will include 10 hand-selected rosé wines by the glass and bottle, rosé on draft, rosé cider, rosé cocktails, and most importantly, their famous Frosé!
