"At Chapman & Kirby, we are dedicated to curating exceptional experiences for our guests beyond great food and drinks. The Spring Music Series is a testament to our commitment to hospitality from every angle, and we’re excited to show off incredible talent" said Mazen Baltagi, co-owner of Chapman & Kirby.
In partnership with Gulf Coast Entertainment, the Spring Music Series lineup will feature a diverse array of musical talents. Each Friday night will offer a unique, interactive experience for guests, via music, food & beverage and local vendor pop-ups. Doors will open at 6pm, with performances starting promptly at 7pm. Purchase tickets here. The schedule includes:
Baber and Robart of The Well Pilates Studio
A labor of love, The Well is located in a space that was at one point a dry cleaner, but has been vacant for years. Owners Kristin Baber and Kate Robart, both blonde and bubbly and strikingly fit, outfitted the concrete shell with a palette of soothing greens and tans, aiming to give the fitness studio a spa-like feel. The open-concept-style floorplan feels airy and urbane.
As for the workout, expect a Pilates reformer routine with a big extra dose of strength training and cardio. Those famous Pilates “shakes” will find you early on in the 50-minute class, but don’t be discouraged: Between the encouraging instructors (Baber and Robart are among them) and the upbeat music, the class flies by. During opening weekend, first-timers and Pilates veterans alike left dripping in sweat and smiling wide.
The 10 Xformer machines are custom-made for The Well, featuring a beautiful brown leather on the platforms and carriage, and black and gold accents. Other features of the studio include sleek lockers, comfortable seating, and a curated retail section with giftable and funky little items, recalling a mini Kuhl-Linscomb.
The Well offers classes seven days a week, and clients can book their spot up to two weeks in advance. Grip socks are required, but can be purchased in-studio.
