When beauty and wellness join forces, magic happens – and our latest collaboration with KXU, Chelsea’s leading boutique fitness and wellness club, was proof of just that. Together, we created an unforgettable evening designed to celebrate self-care in every form, from strengthening the body to rejuvenating the mind and refreshing your look.
The event began in the serene warmth of KXU’s Hot Yoga Pilates studio, where guests flowed through an empowering, sweat-inducing class led by one of KXU’s expert instructors. The session combined mindful movement with deep stretches and sculpting sequences, the perfect antidote to busy London life. With the lights dimmed and soft music filling the space, the class struck the ideal balance between intensity and calm, leaving everyone glowing and grounded.


From Studio to Salon
After class, guests swapped yoga mats for manicures, makeup brushes, and blow-dry chairs as Backstage transformed the KXU studio into a salon. It was the ultimate “gym-to-glam” glow up.
After post work-out protein smoothies, guests were treated to champagne, canapes and express manicures, makeup refreshes and hair styling from our expert Backstage team. Our stylists worked their magic, creating effortless waves, sleek blowouts and soft updos to complement the post-workout glow. Meanwhile, nails were buffed, polished, and perfected in our signature nude and berry tones – shades of the new season.
The atmosphere buzzed with energy and the unmistakable sense of people taking time for themselves, guilt-free. Between beauty treatments and wellness chats, guests enjoyed a selection of healthy canapés designed to nourish and delight, rounding off an evening that was as indulgent as it was empowering.


A Celebration of Smart Beauty & Balanced Living
At Backstage, we believe that beauty should enhance your lifestyle, not complicate it. That’s why our Smart Beauty Service, where you can enjoy multiple treatments simultaneously, aligns perfectly with KXU’s philosophy of efficiency and excellence in wellness. Both brands share a commitment to helping people feel their absolute best, inside and out.
This collaboration showcased the perfect synergy between beauty, health, and self-care, a reminder that glowing skin, glossy hair and polished nails are even better when paired with movement, nourishment and mindfulness.
