Membership Perks

As part of the (already pretty snazzy) deal, members are also entitled to several perks, which change month by month. For example:

  • Private training sessions at application-only, BXR Gym
  • Fitness classes at Psycle
  • Exclusive spa days at venues including the South Kensington Club
  • Grooming and beauty experiences at leading London salons
  • Cryotherapy session
  • Home massage visits

You’ll also get admission to exclusive members-only pop-up events around the world, such as last year’s private Desert Beach Club at Coachella and event in Mykonos with Richard Browning. ‘Signature Experiences’ planned for next year include flying a jet plane to the edge of space, and the ‘Velocity Black Blue Planet experience’ which will instantly book you in to swim with blue whales in Sri Lanka.

How much?

Velocity Black has an annual membership fee of £2,000, plus a one-time joining fee of £700.

Even the members’ boxes are super-luxe…

With each one taking eight weeks to produce, the Velocity Black Founding Members Boxes truly describe the sense of luxury you are buying in to with your membership. Each box contains a limited-edition Mont Blanc Invisible Ink notepad and pen which automatically detects what you are writing and syncs it with your phone (yup), as well as countless other unique items that will enhance your daily life.

So, where do we sign up? (here).

So if you’re looking for a luxurious new member’s club for 2018 that won’t require you to actually leave your home, this could be just the answer…
