Après goal is to provide a welcoming, clean, and safe environment where people can escape the business of daily life, rejuvenate their bodies, and focus on their overall health and wellness while also decompressing and connecting with themselves and community members. Connection - whether inward or with community is our goal.
Bellingham, WA is a small town in the Pacific Northwest that is a vibrant community full of artists, athletes, students and wellness seekers. Our summers are extraordinary but our winters are cold and grey, leaving many of us depleted and stuck indoors. We have no designated space to connect as a community and recharge the body. Similarly, with so many athletes in our town, aside from the Bellingham Bay, we have no space for the recovery needed to rejuvenate our muscles and enhance our performance.
This is why I am starting Après Bathhouse.
Our community needs a dedicated space that has a dry sauna to detoxify the body, an infrared sauna to boost collagen and internal wellness,a steam room to improve muscle recovery and improve skin health as well as a cold shower space to rejuevante and reset in between heated sessions. Additionaly, we need a space where the community can gather safely, sit in peace and connect.
Post COVID, our mindset has shifted in what we prioritize and spend time and money on. More focus has shifted to health and wellness, connection with community and unique experiences. Après will be accessible for all people with community and private offerings as well silent hours. Our goal is to create a welcoming place where self care is as routine as meeting for coffee.
Soak. Sweat. Connect.
Support Après Bathhouse
This space is needed but making it a reality is not easy. I am seeking funding to assist in construction and building costs. No donation is too small.
Any donation you make will be noted and can be used as a one time pass to Apres once up and running!
Take the Plunge.

Healing comes in many forms. Whether it's through medicine, nature, movement or connection. For me, healing comes through movement and recharging of my spirit in or near water. I can often be found by water paddling, swimming or soaking! I have been working in the wellness industry for nearly twenty years. My goal with Après is to bring the community together, to connect internally and to support ourselves, our bodies and each other.
