Although the modern concept of wellness has been around since the 1970s, it’s only during the last decade that it has steadfastly entered our collective psyche, evolving from a buzzword used to sell gym memberships, spa visits and dietary supplements into a trillion-dollar cross-industry market underpinned by our newfound enthusiasm for a complete wellness lifestyle. Entwining several distinct industries, from fitness, nutrition and personal care, to preventive medicine and tourism, the burgeoning wellness market may be offering an ever expanding range of products, programs and services, but it’s usually up to the individual to piece together a holistic approach to well-being – a confounding task made all the more daunting by our nebulous understanding of what wellness really means. We were therefore delighted to discover TATOΪ Club, a private members club that holistically addresses all aspects of wellbeing in a euphoric natural setting of understated sophistication. When we recently visited the Club on a typical Greek mid-summer day, a light breeze was blowing through the pine trees and herb gardens that are dispersed across the landscaped grounds, filling the air with lavender, rosemary and other Mediterranean aromas that gloriously complemented the hypnotic soundtrack of the cicadas. Strolling through such an idyllic setting, courtesy of Athens-based landscape architects H. Pangalou - Associates, complete with a picturesque lake where scenic yoga sessions take place and two outdoor pools with a team of baristas and mixologists at hand, it seemed to us that, far from being an abstract concept, wellness was within our grasp.

虽然现代健康概念从20世纪70年代开始就已经出现，但直到最近十年，它才坚定地进入了我们的集体心理，从一个用来销售健身会员、水疗和膳食补充剂的流行词演变为一个以我们新发现的对健康生活方式的热情为基础的价值万亿美元的跨行业市场。从健身、营养和个人护理到预防医学和旅游业，蓬勃发展的健康市场可能正在提供不断扩大的产品、项目和服务，但这通常取决于个人整合一种整体的福祉方法-这一令人困惑的任务由于我们对健康真正含义的模糊理解而变得更加令人望而生畏。因此，我们很高兴地发现，塔托Ϊ俱乐部，一个私人会员俱乐部，全面解决所有方面的福祉，在一个愉快的自然背景下，低调的成熟。当我们最近在一个典型的希腊仲夏的日子参观俱乐部的时候，微风吹过松树和草本植物花园，散布在园地上，空气中弥漫着薰衣草、迷迭香和其他地中海的芳香，这是对蝉催眠声的补充。漫步在这样一个田园诗般的环境中，由雅典的景观建筑师h.pangalou提供。

Located at the pine-covered foothills of Mount Parnitha in the north of Athens, Greece, the Club couldn’t have chosen a more suitable location for nurturing the overall wellbeing of its members, both geographically and symbolically. The spot combines a serene, natural setting that can be enjoyed all-year-round with close proximity to the cultural and commercial delights of Athens. But more than that, the Greek setting taps into a long-standing tradition in health and wellbeing practices, centred on Plato’s belief that the part can never be well unless the whole is well. It was after all the Ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates, who was the first to suggest that prevention is just as important as treatment, arguing that disease is a product of diet, lifestyle and environmental factors – an axiom that has become the bedrock of the modern approach to wellness which also informs TATOΪ Club’s health-promoting lifestyle, holistically conceived in order to address the overall wellbeing of its members. At its core, TATOΪ Club’s comprehensive approach to wellness revolves around five interconnected aspects - fitness, nutrition, good health, contact with nature, and community - underpinned by the Club’s extensive facilities. Set in a beautifully landscaped 18-acre estate, the facilities include among other things 18 state-of-the-art tennis courts, plenty of indoor and outdoor training and leisure areas, a physiotherapy and nutrition centre, and a fully equipped spa as well as activity areas for children.

位于希腊雅典北部帕尼塔山的松树覆盖的山脚上，俱乐部在地理上和象征意义上都不可能选择更合适的地点来培养会员的整体福祉。该景点结合了一个宁静、自然的环境，一年四季都可以享受到雅典的文化和商业乐趣。但更重要的是，希腊在健康和福利实践方面挖掘了一个悠久的传统，以柏拉图的观点为中心，即除非整体健康，否则这个部分永远不可能健康。毕竟，古希腊医生希波克拉底(Hippocrates)是第一个提出预防和治疗同样重要的人，他认为疾病是饮食、生活方式和环境因素的产物-这一公理已成为现代健康方法的基石，这种方法也为塔托Ϊ俱乐部的健康提供了信息-促进健康的生活方式，是为了解决成员的整体健康问题而全面构想的。在其核心，塔托Ϊ俱乐部的全面方法的健康围绕五个相互关联的方面-健身，营养，良好的健康，与自然的联系，和社区-支持俱乐部的广泛设施。这些设施坐落在一个美丽的景观优美的18英亩的庄园里，其中包括18个最先进的网球场、大量的室内和室外训练和休闲区、一个理疗和营养中心、一个设备齐全的水疗中心以及儿童活动区。

The Club is renowned for its stellar tennis facilities and services, which include a range of outdoor and indoor courts, both clay and turf, a team of professional tennis coaches, and total training support. In fact, they are of such high calibre that they not only function as an international training hub for international athletes such as Gael Monfils, Ymer Elias, and Maria Sakkaris but can also host major international tennis events such as last year’s Fed Cup EUROPE-AFRICA Group II, and the upcoming Davis Cup EUROPE GROUP III which in September. Tennis aside, the Club offers members a wide range of activities and group classes from which they can create a personalized fitness program with the help of a team of fitness trainers. A fully equipped gym with both indoor and outdoor exercise areas is complemented by a running track that meanders across the grounds, a range of yoga and Pilates sessions that often take place outdoors next to the lake, and a heated, outdoor swimming pool where members can partake in personal training sessions. The Club’s integrated fitness approach is backed up by a range of preventive treatments and restorative therapies aiming at overall wellbeing. From physiotherapy training and clinical Pilates, to pioneering cryotherapy treatments, to nutritional therapy, the goal is to evaluate, restore and maintain physical function, or, more to the point, to stay healthy. Coupled with an eclectic selection of facial and body wellness treatments and a variety of different massages, courtesy of the Club’s spa, there is little doubt that when it comes to relaxation and rejuvenation, the Club is at the top of its game.

该俱乐部以其一流的网球设施和服务而闻名于世，其中包括一系列的室外和室内场地，包括粘土和草坪，一支专业的网球教练队伍，以及全面的训练支持。事实上，他们的实力是如此之高，不仅可以成为盖尔·蒙菲尔斯(Gael Monfils)、伊迈尔·伊利亚斯(Ymer Elias)和玛丽亚·萨卡里斯(Maria Sakkaris)等国际运动员的国际训练中心，还可以举办大型国际网球赛事，比如去年的欧洲联储杯(Fed Cup)-非洲第二组(European Group II)，以及即将于9月举行除了网球之外，俱乐部还为会员们提供了各种各样的活动和小组课程，他们可以在健身教练团队的帮助下创建一个个性化的健身项目。一个配备齐全的健身房，配有室内和室外运动区域，辅之以绕着操场蜿蜒而行的跑道、经常在湖边室外进行的一系列瑜伽和普拉提课程，以及一个恒温的室外游泳池，成员们可以在那里参加个人培训课程。俱乐部的综合健身方法得到了一系列预防治疗和恢复性治疗的支持，目的是为了整体的健康。从理疗训练和临床普拉提，到开创性的冷冻治疗，再到营养疗法，目标是评估、恢复和维持身体功能，或者更重要的是保持健康。加上各种面部和身体健康治疗的选择，以及各种不同的按摩，由于俱乐部的水疗中心，毫无疑问，当涉及到放松和恢复活力时，俱乐部是它的巅峰。

While the aforementioned herb gardens add colour and texture to the landscaping, they are also an integral part of the Club’s dedication to healthy nutrition. From the snacks and nibbles that members can savour by the pool, to the breakfast menu and gourmet dishes served in the Club’s all-day restaurant, every culinary offering has been lovingly prepared in-house, in collaboration with the Club’s expert nutritionist, from seasonal, farm-to-table ingredients that have been sourced from local farmers as well as the Club’s own farm where vegetables, fruits and herbs are cultivated. By offering a balanced, as opposed to an abstinence-based diet, the Club’s aim is to instil a better way of eating as a step towards a better way of living in its members. Learning to eat well is also the goal behind the Club’s cooking workshops that take place at the Cook House, a low-slung building situated amidst the pine trees, but it’s also part of a wide range of social activities which foster creativity and encourage social interactions. From calligraphy seminars to inspirational lectures and discussions, members not only have the opportunity to participate in events that interest them and nurture their hobbies, but they also develop closer ties with each other. A like-minded community is after all one of the basic aspects of wellness, which, as a private members club, TATOΪ Club is all about.

虽然上述草药花园为景观增添了色彩和质地，但它们也是俱乐部致力于健康营养的组成部分。从会员们可以在游泳池边品尝的小吃和小吃，到俱乐部全天餐厅提供的早餐菜单和美食菜肴，每一种烹饪服务都是在俱乐部内部精心准备的，与俱乐部的专业营养师合作，从季节性的、农场到餐桌的食材，这些原料都来自当地农民，以及俱乐部自己的农场，那里种植着蔬菜、水果和草药。通过提供一个平衡的，而不是禁欲的饮食，俱乐部的目标是灌输一种更好的饮食方式，作为一个更好的生活方式的成员。学会吃得好也是俱乐部在库克餐厅(Cook House)举办的烹饪工作坊的目标，这是一座坐落在松树中间的低矮建筑，但它也是促进创造力和鼓励社会互动的广泛社会活动的一部分。从书法研讨会到鼓舞人心的讲座和讨论，成员们不仅有机会参加他们感兴趣的活动，培养他们的爱好，而且他们之间也有更密切的联系。一个志同道合的社区毕竟是健康的基本方面之一，作为一个私人俱乐部，TatoΪ俱乐部就是关于健康的。

With such a variety of activities and amenities, which also include lounge and meetings areas, a beauty bar, a boutique and a conference centre, the Club aspires to be an integral part of its members’ everyday lives. Wellness after all is a holistic concept that defies a piecemeal approach or occasional involvement, which is why the Club also offers members the chance to stay overnight. Featuring two suites and six rooms hosting up to four guests each, the Guest House is the ideal place for Athenians seeking a break from the hectic rhythms of the city, as well as for foreign members who can decamp here for longer periods of time to enjoy both Greek hospitality and the Club’s services and facilities. Passing by the Guest House’s private terrace during our tour of the grounds, we couldn’t help but wonder how utterly liberating it would be to live in such a lovely environment where every aspect of your well-being is taken care of. At the end of the day though, wellness only partly depends on mapping out a suitable health-promoting lifestyle of regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and mental stimulation. What is just as important is to be inspired and motivated to pursue it on a daily basis, which, more than anything else, defines TATOΪ Club ’s raison dêtre.

俱乐部有各种各样的活动和便利设施，包括休息室和会议区、美容酒吧、精品店和会议中心，因此渴望成为会员日常生活的组成部分。毕竟，健康是一个整体概念，它不能以零敲碎打的方式或偶尔的参与，这就是为什么俱乐部也为会员提供过夜的机会。酒店配有两间套房和六间客房，每间可容纳四位客人，是雅典人寻求摆脱城市繁忙节奏的理想场所，也是外国会员的理想去处，他们可以在此逗留更长时间，享受希腊的热情款待，享受俱乐部的服务和设施。经过宾馆的私人露台时，我们不由自主地想，在这样一个美好的环境中生活，你的幸福的每一个方面都会得到照顾，这将是多么彻底的解放。然而，在一天结束时，健康只是部分取决于制定一种适当的促进健康的生活方式，即经常锻炼、均衡营养和精神刺激。同样重要的是，每天都要受到激励和激励，这比其他任何事情都更能说明塔托Ϊ俱乐部存在的理由。
