Thirty Nine Monte Carlo is a unique wellness-focused concept born out of the vision of Scottish ex-Rugby International and Monaco resident Ross Beattie. His elite professional sportsman history forms the backbone of 39, but the club is more than just a fitness venue. Ross’s philosophy for 39 was to create an ideal environment for its members to practice fitness and to nourish their bodies in a way that achieves optimum results and improves quality of life. Attention to detail runs throughout the club in order to achieve this balance. Clients can be confident in the knowledge that they are using high-tech sports equipment and have access to guidance and training from top sports professionals but in the intimacy of a private-club setting that is designed to feel like an extension of your home.

39 has welcomed many elite professional athletes amongst its members this year, including tennis pro Novak Djokovic and former Olympic UK athlete Paula Radcliffe (who is 39’s Run Club Ambassador.) Other professional athletes on the members’ list include professional tennis players Tomas Berdych and Alexander Zverev; pro football player Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who worked on his comeback this year at 39; AS Monaco Pro footballers and professional boxers.

Thirty Nine Monte Carlo celebrated its first anniversary in a style that befits its elegant surroundings and chic clientele. Guests were treated to live cooking on the club’s generous terrace, in addition to a glamorous fashion show. To mark the anniversary, 39 presented a new tasty feature to its club menu – 39’s Biltong, in association with Maison Lino.

39’s Membership Manager Christophe Bors looks back on the party and the year: “We’re excited to have recently celebrated 39’s first birthday. In its inaugural year, 39 has quickly established itself amongst the discerning residents of Monaco as well as visitors from further afield who are looking for a private and exclusive space for fitness, beauty, nutrition with an urban twist. We are confident 39’s success will continue and look forward to welcoming new members in the year ahead!”.
