January news update
MUSIC IS THE ANSWER
The Brick is hosting a DJ contest this month!
If you know any musical wizards that want to show the world his/her talents, let them send a demo to vincent@thebrick.be.
Deadline to apply is Friday the 27th of January.
Selected deejays will be able to play a 30 min set on Tuesday the 31th of January.
The top 3 will get a free year membership and the possibility to play at one of the coolest gyms in the world.
SUPER SWEEYAN
Young Swee was a huge Dragonball Z fan, a manga series where the hero becomes Super Saiyan, granting him super powers.
But unlike the other children he didn’t want to be like Goku, the perfect hero on the left. He wanted to be Vegeta, the bad guy on the right who always strives for perfection but never really makes it until he does.
(Obviously because bad guys get all the good girls but we are getting ahead of ourselves)
Becoming a Super Saiyan is no small feat. It requires a calm heart & mind, a high base power level and an emotional trigger of some sort.
He wasn’t too sure about the calm and emotions, but high base power level, that Swee could work with. He went from 70 kilos to 95 in the gym, eating 5000 calories a day which is easy if you own a restaurant.
While it didn’t get him the girls it did trigger his interest in fitness, going from noodle dealer to muscle leader. He went from chef to PT, led by his passion to become this perfect version of himself, this Super Saiyan, always striving to improve.
His next goals are competing in international body building contests in 2024 in the Classic Physique & Mens’ Physique disciplines. (For those not familiar with that particular scene that translates to basically posing in speedos & posing in surf shorts)
But we are digressing, back to the Brick. His classes are very popular, probably because of the perpetual smile, or could it be his eclectic music choices? Whatever it is, it works. People are unanimously getting STRONGer with Swee.
If you want to get stronger, hit him up.
The worst you can get out of the deal is that he buys you breakfast.

BOOKINGS AND CANCELS
As you all know we offer so many classes these days that a little weekly managing is in order.
For us to keep adding to the roster, we need to know how classes perform.
This can only be achieved if people actually show up to the classes they booked.
It pains us to still see classes with full waiting lists and empty seats.
We therefore adjusted the timing in which people can book and cancel.
This will only be possible during our opening hours, which are 07:00 ‘till 22:00.
Want more classes? Cancel in time. Or show up.
We would once more like to remind everyone to cancel their classes within the 4 hour window.
Cancel your classes on time through the app and don’t forget to check in on all locations with your QR-code, badge or card.
Phone, e-mail or social media are not valid ways to cancel your classes.
Your co-members thank you.
BRICKTAPES
We have a lot of new mixes in our Spotify channel again this month.
This is where our deejays & guests curate their very own music especially for you.

PACK’D
WE ALL WANT TO BE HEALTHY.
Known factors are exercising and eating healthy, but when it comes to nutrients, it gets a bit more complicated.
PACK’D aims to make it all a little less complicated.
For those who eat healthily and live a perfectly balanced lifestyle, you really wouldn’t need supplements.
But we both know that not every meal we eat is healthy.
And that’s not a problem at all: our Essentials Box is an insurance for the burgundian lifestyle.
We’ve worked with professionals in the sports and nutrients industry to create a selection of daily essentials that will work towards a healthy, energized body and focused mind.
