Wellness Education
Our mission is sustainable health. We don’t just want you to have a good time and see results while here at the resort, we also want you to be equipped with the knowledge and tools needed to continue successful healthy living at home when you leave. Our educational series has been mindfully created by health professionals to meet those needs. It is based around five main components.
-
Knowledge: we strive to provide the most up-to-date, research-based information regarding nutrition, fitness, and overall health.
-
Awareness: we work with guests to help them recognize cues from their bodies that tell them when they need to eat, sleep, be active, etc.
-
Assessment: we help guests evaluate their current lifestyles and individual situations, in addition to identifying sources of support and accountability, in order to determine the most realistic approach for their success.
-
Planning: we help and encourage guests to set realistic short and long term goals.
-
Reflection: we guide guests through the process of reflecting on their past and current goals, successes and failures, and related emotions to help identify any barriers to future success.
Our interactive classes are led by qualified health experts such as registered dietitians, certified nutritionists, certified health and life coaches, certified trainers, and executive chefs. Topics we cover often include energy needs and portion control, label reading, intuitive eating, meal planning, cooking demos, high intensity vs low intensity exercise, strength training, and a life coaching series.

Life Coaching and Relaxation Time
At Wellfit, we not only care about your fitness, but also about the health of your mind and spirit. Therefore, in addition to the fantastic hikes, workouts, and wellness education we offer, there is also plenty of free time and scheduled social activities to provide opportunities for relaxation and bonding with other Wellfit guests. We understand the importance of working hard as well as having fun!
In the evenings, our experienced life coach creates an intimate space for the guests to talk about their goals and struggles, while also guiding them through thought-provoking curriculum to help them dig deeper and reach for success. Guests are inspired to develop new patterns for their life through education, support, and accountability.
During leisure time, guests are often found playing cards or ping pong, relaxing by the pool, or conversing in one of our beautiful common areas. Every Friday night we offer music around the fire pit led by a group of local musicians. Guests can join in or just sit back and enjoy the show!
Those who come to Wellfit Malibu, leave with a refreshed body, mind, and spirit; and often a few new friends too.
