In an era where the relentless pace of modern life has propelled wellness to the forefront of personal priorities, self-care has transcended its former perception as a luxury. It is now widely recognized as a crucial long-term investment in physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life. Recognizing this significant shift in consumer consciousness, Summarecon Mall Bekasi has inaugurated Wellground, an expansive Rooftop Sports & Wellness Center, positioned as the largest of its kind in Indonesia. This ambitious development is meticulously designed to function as a comprehensive lifestyle ecosystem, offering a holistic destination for athletic pursuits, energy rejuvenation, and integrated health management.
The sheer scale of Wellground is remarkable, spanning over 17,000 square meters and seamlessly integrated with the existing mall infrastructure. This colossal facility is engineered to be a one-stop shop for a healthy and active lifestyle, housing a diverse array of premium amenities under one roof. These include dedicated Wellground Sports Facilities, the state-of-the-art NXT Fit Mega Gym, and Juvia Wellness, each contributing to the overarching vision of a balanced and vibrant urban existence. The strategic location within Summarecon Mall Bekasi aims to capture the growing market segment that seeks convenience and comprehensive lifestyle solutions, particularly within the bustling metropolitan area.
A Hub for Diverse Athletic Pursuits
Ugi Cahyono, Center Director of Summarecon Mall Bekasi, articulated the vision behind Wellground, stating, "More than just a facility, Wellground is a destination that combines sport, wellness, and leisure within one integrated ecosystem." This declaration underscores the mall’s strategic expansion beyond traditional retail into the burgeoning wellness and lifestyle sector. As the most comprehensive sport and wellness destination in Bekasi, Wellground caters to a broad spectrum of enthusiasts, from avid padel players and Hyrox competitors to pilates practitioners and general lovers of an active lifestyle.
The facility boasts an impressive array of sports courts, ensuring ample space and variety for athletic endeavors. This includes five indoor padel courts, two pickleball courts, three indoor tennis courts, and four indoor badminton courts, accommodating the rising popularity of racket sports. For team sports enthusiasts, the center features a basketball court and a futsal field. Complementing these are a dedicated jogging track, offering a scenic route for runners, and an expansive Aquatic Zone. This zone features an Olympic-size infinity pool, a leisure pool for relaxed swimming, and a children’s pool, all offering picturesque views of the Summarecon Bekasi cityscape. The inclusion of these diverse sporting facilities reflects a keen understanding of current fitness trends and community demands.
NXT Fit: Elevating the Gym Experience
At the heart of Wellground’s athletic offerings is NXT Fit, a premium mega-gym designed to provide an unparalleled fitness experience. NXT Fit is not merely a collection of exercise equipment; it is a dynamic space offering a wide range of classes catering to diverse fitness goals and preferences. These include specialized Hyrox classes, designed for functional fitness enthusiasts; Wellground Rushing, a high-energy spin class; Pilates, focusing on core strength and flexibility; Yoga, promoting balance and mindfulness; Les Mills, the globally recognized group fitness program; Zumba and Aerobics for dynamic cardio workouts; and Boot Camp and TRX classes for intense, functional training.
Beyond the group fitness studios, NXT Fit is equipped with dedicated areas for Cardio, Strength, and Performance training, allowing members to tailor their workouts to their specific needs. For those seeking personalized attention and group synergy, a Private Group Training (PGT) Studio is also available. Recognizing the importance of recovery, the gym also offers access to sauna and ice bath facilities, crucial for muscle recovery and overall well-being after strenuous workouts. The integration of these recovery amenities further solidifies NXT Fit’s commitment to a holistic approach to fitness.
Personalized Training Programs for Every Level
A standout feature of Wellground is its innovative approach to personalized class programs, meticulously designed to align with individual needs and athletic goals. The "Practice Class" is structured to help participants hone their techniques, build consistent training habits, and refine their strategies through structured drills and simulated matches. This is particularly beneficial for those looking to improve their performance in specific sports like padel or tennis.
For individuals seeking a more intense challenge, the "Booster Class" offers high-intensity sessions that combine strength training with advanced conditioning techniques. These classes are engineered to push participants beyond their limits, fostering significant improvements in strength, endurance, and overall athletic capacity.
In contrast, the "Social Class" provides a more relaxed and interactive environment, emphasizing camaraderie and the joy of movement. The primary focus here is on building a supportive community, encouraging participants to stay active while forging new connections and enjoying their workouts in a warm and encouraging atmosphere. This tiered approach ensures that Wellground caters to a wide spectrum of fitness levels and motivations, from competitive athletes to those seeking social engagement and light activity.
Juvia Wellness: A Sanctuary for Holistic Well-Being
Complementing the rigorous athletic activities, Juvia Wellness offers a haven for relaxation and rejuvenation, embodying a "Sanctuary for Holistic Well-Being to Pause, Reconnect, and Renew." Developed in collaboration with experienced wellness consultants who have served renowned international luxury hotel chains, Juvia adheres to the highest standards of Holistic Wellness Experience. The aim is to provide a comprehensive restorative journey for the body, mind, and soul.
Juvia’s signature offerings include the Hydro Pool Experience, which masterfully integrates hydrotherapy, hot plunge, and cold plunge pools with sauna facilities. This multi-faceted approach is designed to expedite physical recovery, alleviate muscle tension, and promote deep relaxation. Drawing inspiration from the ancient Japanese onsen tradition, the "Japanese Inspired Seated Bathing" area offers a more mindful and tranquil bathing experience, fostering a sense of calm and introspection.
Furthermore, Juvia Wellness provides an extensive menu of therapeutic treatments. Guests can choose from a variety of massages, including the "Mimpi Massage," a traditional Javanese massage known for its deep tissue techniques, a specialized Sports Massage to aid athletic recovery, Traditional Reflexology to target specific pressure points, and luxurious Couple Massages for shared relaxation experiences. The careful curation of these services reflects a deep understanding of ancient healing practices and modern therapeutic techniques, all aimed at achieving complete well-being.
Culinary Delights and Digital Convenience
To further enhance the integrated lifestyle experience, Wellground features two distinct F&B destinations. MARKT by The Pool offers a unique dining experience with panoramic views of the infinity pool, providing a serene setting for meals. After Match, another dining option, operates daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, catering to a variety of dining needs throughout the day.
In a move to streamline the user experience, Wellground has launched its dedicated "Wellground App." This intuitive digital platform allows visitors to conveniently book sports courts, manage their pass holder memberships, conduct transactions, and access class schedules and information, all within a single, user-friendly application. This technological integration signifies a commitment to modern convenience and accessibility for all users.
Summarecon’s Strategic Expansion into Lifestyle
The development of Wellground marks a significant strategic evolution for Summarecon Mall Bekasi. It transcends its traditional role as a retail center to become a multifaceted urban lifestyle destination. This expansion into the sports and wellness sector is a calculated response to evolving consumer demands and a growing awareness of the importance of health and well-being. By offering such a comprehensive and integrated facility, Summarecon Mall Bekasi aims to solidify its position as a premier destination for residents of Bekasi and its surrounding areas, providing an all-encompassing experience that caters to the modern urban dweller’s multifaceted lifestyle needs.
