In the bustling rhythm of the 21st century, maintaining physical health is often emphasized, yet social wellness can be overlooked particularly in this post pandemic environment where people want connection and a club like atmosphere but maybe without the hangover causing libations! A pioneering health and social hub where community can gather to feel and grow together in the realms of health wellness and humanness! - “Elevate STL Social Wellness Club,” a multi-purpose multifaceted venue focusing on comprehensive well-being and high vibes of the mind body and soul.. but in order to do this we need more space! That’s where you come in!

Our Glow Yoga Pizza Party where we partner with local businesses and MoCannIndustry to provide a one of a kind evening of yoga pizza and CannaED.

The Expansion Plan!
We have a wonderful opportunity to take over the full building that Elevate Well STL currently leases the 2nd floor of on South Grand Blvd the communities hugest foot traffic shopping and dining / socializing district to expand in the offerings of traditional yoga and fitness classes, hot and cold saunas, a non-alcoholic (mocktail) and coffee bar, while still maintaining our already unique cannabis consumption zen den style lounge for the 21+ upstairs, we aim to foster a community that celebrates holistic wellness in every way possible!




Your Investment Matters!
We are seeking an investment of $20,000 to initiate this venture which will help cover the costs of rent for the first 6 months and buildout of the downstairs location.

The Full Concept
Fitness with a Twist: Elevate STL Social Wellness Club will offer various fitness classes, from yoga and dance, to martial arts and acroyoga, catering to different physical health needs and preferences. These classes will serve as a draw to health-conscious individuals seeking a supportive community environment.

Mocktail Bar & Lounge: Our venue will feature a sophisticated mocktail bar, providing a social space for members to connect and unwind. The bar will serve an array of creative, health-conscious mocktails, allowing members to socialize in a lively, alcohol-free environment.

Cannabis Consumption Lounge: Distinguishing us from typical wellness centers, our club will include a comfortable, safe, and legal space for cannabis consumption. This modern lounge will adhere to all regulatory standards, providing a unique atmosphere for adults to explore the recreational and medicinal benefits of cannabis in a social setting.


Our location is currently above Apotheosis Comics & Lounge which is already partially set up with club like ambiance.

Market Analysis
With the growing legalization of cannabis, there is an emerging market for social spaces that accommodate its new legal status and social acceptance. Simultaneously, there is a noticeable shift towards health and wellness, particularly in environments that support mental and social well-being. Our market research indicates a significant demand for a combined service offering both fitness and social wellness activities, positioning Elevate STL Social Wellness Club to fill this niche.

Financial Projections and Funding Request
Dont TLDR This is the important stuff!

We project substantial revenue generation through multiple streams, including membership fees, class charges, mocktail sales, and lounge access fees. Our preliminary financial analysis forecasts a breakeven point within the first year of operation, considering conservative estimates of membership uptake and daily sales.

To realize this venture, we are seeking an initial investment of $20,000. These funds will be allocated to:

Leasehold improvements and equipment purchases
Initial inventory purchase (cannabis, mocktail ingredients)
Licensing and legal fees
Marketing and promotional activities



Conclusion
Elevate STL Social Wellness Club represents a ground-breaking venture at the intersection of physical health, social wellness, and modern recreational practices. This business is poised not only to thrive financially but also to foster a community where individuals can pursue holistic wellness in a vibrant, supportive environment. We invite you to invest in this unique concept and join us in pioneering a new form of social wellness culture.

Together, we can elevate the standard of wellness, one experience at a time.
