KOLM Kontrast Sweat Equity Program

About KOLM Kontrast

Kolm is a luxury immersive Sauna and Ice Bath experience at Cambie & 8th, Vancouver complete with a tea lounge and full service amenities. 

Our mission is to provide a learning ground for personal growth. To create a space for connection and a community of like-minded growth-seekers. We believe the path of personal progress is an endless practice, and we go farther by walking that path together.

Our class programming balances Western psychology, neuroscience, and scientifically backed hot and cold protocols with proven Eastern philosophy principles and practices such as meditation, breathwork, visualization, somatics and bodywork.

We empower our community with tools for self-regulation that extend beyond our walls, creating happier and healthier lives. By joining KOLM, you’ll be part of a vision to expand our transformative approach to wellbeing to locations across Canada and internationally within the next decade.

 

About the Program

The KOLM Kontrast Sweat Equity Program is an opportunity to become an integral part of our community while immersing yourself in the transformative experience of hot-cold contrast therapy. Participants help us maintain the high standards of our space while earning access to our saunas, cold plunges, and community offerings.

This program reflects KOLM’s mission to foster personal growth, connection, and self-regulation, empowering individuals to discover their happiest and healthiest selves.
