Connect and Reconnect with Your Soul at Four Seasons Hotel Beijing

Health and wellness are intricately linked to traditional Chinese culture. For thousands of years, people practiced the martial arts of qi gong and tai chi, drank healing teas and ate meals of satisfying, nourishing foods to centre themselves in both body and mind. At Four Seasons Hotel Beijing, the past and present come together in a new, sophisticated wellness program that draws on the lessons of yesterday to create the good health of today with wellness partners Uptown and Kung Fu Zen Garden Retreat.

“The health of body and soul is interrelated,” says Andrew De Brito, General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel Beijing. “Whether it is dynamic jazz and chair dance, calligraphy and ink painting with rich Chinese traditional culture, as well as static meditation and enlightenment, guests can enhance their vitality and regain their peace of mind.”

Through the Miracle China program, guests can draw on the wisdom of Laozi and Confucius, try Wudang Taoist style tai chi and Chang Jia Quan-style kung fu taught by martial arts masters, dip a brush into the ink for a calming session of Chinese calligraphy, or transform nature into art with ink, water and a brush in a Chinese ink painting session in the relaxing environs of the Tea Garden. 

Work up a sweat with any of a number of calorie-burning, fun and effective workouts by the sunlit poolside of Four Seasons Hotel Beijing, including Functional Training, Body Sculpt and ABT (Abs, Booty, Thighs), that target the core, glutes and legs. Or try the latest in fitness trends with Gyrotonic/MELT, Spinal Movement, Tension Release or Myofascial Release classes. Or get a groove on with Jazz Funk, Hip Hop, Chair Dance or Salsa, or relax with Power, Dance, Candlelight Meditative or Therapeutic Yoga. 

Build up an appetite, then relax by the sunlit swimming pool with a stunning view of the city for a special healthy menu created by Chef Jackson Wu and his award-winning culinary team. Or sit and contemplate in comfortable silence while sipping tea in the luxurious simplicity of the Tea Garden.

Wind down with an unforgettable art session that will soothe the sould. Guests can unleash their inner artists under the tutelage of Artist in Residence Cui Fenghua, with a glass of wine and subtle candlelight, for a romantic air of tranquility in The Spa treatment room. 

“The new wellness program will assist our guests in the re-connection among body, mind and soul,” says Zoe Zhong, Director of The Spa, Four Seasons Hotel Beijing. “It’s a journey of spiritual exploration, or pushing body to the limit.”
