December 7th, 2021 | 7 min. read

By Jen Azevedo

When deciding if you want to become a member at the Paseo Club, the numerous options may feel overbearing at first. Especially with all the different membership types and add-ons, you might have a hard time figuring out which membership type is the best fit for you.

We at the Paseo Club strive to make sure you have the best experience here possible, as well as being there for you every step of the way through the decision process of picking the membership type that fits you by answering any questions you may have. 

Here at the Paseo Club we have a handful of different membership types. We feel that having more options makes it beneficial to our members so they find that membership that is perfect for them, their needs, wants, and desires. In this article, we’re going to dive deep into the benefits and downsides of a Couples Court Membership.

If you think you are ready to join us here at Paseo but aren’t quite sure as to which membership type you want, then look no further because we will help you to find the membership type that works best for your exercise style. The Couples Court membership isn’t the best match for everyone, so we promise to be objective and transparent about what this membership option does and doesn’t offer. 

 

Pros of a Couples Court Membership

When signing up with a Couples Court Membership at the Paseo Club, not only are you granted access to the basic amenities the Paseo Club offers, but you obtain full court access as well. 

This membership is great in helping you meet your personal health goals and objectives. In addition, this membership also allows you to meet new people and expand your social circle, both on and off the court at the Paseo Club. 

 

What is included in the Couples Court Membership?

Just like our Court Membership that we offer for a single adult with various amenities, we offer the same amenities and benefits to couples who both want to join the Paseo Club and get a Couples Court Membership together. 

This may leave you wondering, “What makes me qualify for a Couples Court Membership here at the Paseo Club?” Couples are defined as two individuals living at the same residence.

With this being said, if you and your significant other that you live with or any adult that you live with wanted a Couples Court Membership, then together you would pay $248 per month, with a one-time initiation fee of $200. 

If you and your significant other love to play tennis or pickleball, then this is probably the best membership type for you. On top of everything that our Couples Court Membership has to offer, it gives you many options and activities to participate in and as well as allows you both to strengthen and sharpen up your court skills together.  

Read more below to see what our Couples Court members can enjoy at the Paseo Club.

If you are unsure of the amenities and perks offered with a regular court membership, then no worries either click on that link above or read further and we will explain as to what is included in the court membership, which is exactly what is included in the couples court membership as well. 

 

Tennis 

Tennis is now one of the top three sports that is played in the US today, and it has become a staple over here at the Paseo Club. Our club has twelve full-sized tennis courts that provide you with all the space you need to strengthen and improve your skills. 

Not to mention we also have our main court which is known as “Stadium Court” due to the fact it is our first court and has seating surrounding it as well.

With the Couple’s Court Membership, you gain access to our regularly maintained tennis courts. In addition to this, you also have the privilege of reserving any of the courts for your personal use. So, whether you want to play a set of 1v1’s or 2v2’s or touch upon your tennis techniques on your own, the options are endless.

You may be wondering, “How do I touch upon my tennis skills alone?” At the Paseo Club, we have a tennis ball machine called the “Lobster Ball Machine.” This machine is Bluetooth and allows you to connect your phone to it across the court, so you can maintain the speed and time at which the balls are dispensed at you.

 

Pickleball 

Pickleball is considered to be the fastest growing sport in the nation, and because of this, the Paseo Club has built eleven new pickleball courts for members to learn how to play. 

If you’ve never played the sport before, and want to start, then it might be beneficial to begin learning with private lessons, group clinics, or drill classes to help you get a better understanding of the game and you can learn with other people in your skill level.

When members want to learn pickleball, they may want to learn with a friend or partner instead of taking classes. Or, maybe they’ve already learned in the past and want a place to play and practice on their own.

With a Couple’s Court Membership, it gives you the ability to reserve courts for your use, which is great if you want to play some 1 v 1’s or 2 v 2’s in your free time. 

 

Court Time and Space

Even though Santa Clarita has many tennis courts within the valley, it can be difficult to find an empty court to play on. With a Couple’s Court Membership at the Paseo Club, this eliminates the hassle of trying to find somewhere to play and allows you to reserve a court at any time. 

The privilege of being able to reserve a court makes your life way easier due to the fact you have a designated time you can go and play tennis without having to fight for court space.You can reserve courts through our app or with the front desk.

 

Pickleball Porch

One of our newest additions to the Paseo Club is the Pickleball Porch. Behind our many courts is where you can find this hidden oasis. There is nothing better than having a nice shaded area equipped with many comfy chairs and tables to kick back and relax after an intense game of pickleball or tennis. 

 

Clinics and Leagues 

There are many benefits to joining the Paseo Club with a Couple’s Court Membership, such as joining our clinics which are classes that help you strengthen your skills and leagues that put your skills to the test, by playing in real competitive matches. 

Not only can you become more skillful in your court sport of choice, but you can also make friends along the way. 

Our experienced instructors make your life easier on the court, whether they’re teaching you the sport from the ground up or sharpening the skills you already have.  

 

You get access to most Paseo Club amenities 

With a Couple’s Court Membership at the Paseo Club, you can utilize nearly all of the amenities that the Paseo Club has to offer, excluding what is included in the platinum add-on

Whether you are looking to come in for a leisure workout, participating in a class, or wanting to mingle and meet up with some friends, there are endless ways you can do so with this membership type. 

 

Gym equipment

One of the things that the Paseo Club is known for is our fitness facility. Members are granted unlimited access to our beautifully renovated three-story fitness center. 

There is no need to worry about finding space to workout, because our fitness center is over 10,000 square feet, leaving you more than plenty of room for any kind of workout. 

Located near our fitness facility is an additional outdoor space that is specified for heavy lifting, and TRX (Total Resistance Exercise) equipment, which can be located in our very own Tribe Room. 

With our wide variety of spaces to workout and gear such as free weights, machines, and cardio equipment, this allows members to target any and every muscle group they want to focus on.

While you’re working out, you also have access to our locker rooms. Not only do our locker rooms provide you with a safe space to store your personal belongings throughout your workout, but it also is equipped with a sauna that enables you to relax your muscles afterward as well. 

 

GroupEx classes

Over 70 weekly group exercise classes are included in your membership for no additional cost. We not only offer small group classes but we have larger group classes as well, which are held both indoors and outdoors. 

There is a wide range of class options here at The Paseo Club. Kickboxing, cardio, and yoga are just some of our many favorite class options here that incorporate both fitness and fun. 

For many members, group exercise is a huge incentive. 

 

The Pool, the Cafe, and the Bar

Another wonderful amenity at the Paseo Club is the swimming pool. Our Junior-Olympic-sized pool is perfect for both exercise or relaxation. The pool is also open year-long for recreational use, so you can jump in the water with friends and family or take a moment to relax on your own.

Just beside the pool is our cafe, where you can feast on a variety of different food options. From light snacks to heavy meals, the cafe menu has something for every member to enjoy.

The Paseo Club also has a recently renovated bar for you to come and relax. You can meet other members while you enjoy some of the creations from our talented bartenders.

 

Cons of a Couples Court Membership

While the Couple’s Court Membership at the Paseo Club has many benefits, it also has some downsides. If you’re trying to decide if a Couple’s Court Membership is the right fit for you, you may want to consider some of the cons that come with this membership type.

 

Higher Price

Although the Couple’s Court Membership comes with many of the amenities that the Paseo Club has to offer, it is a little bit of a higher price, going for $248 a month with that one-time initiation fee of $200. 

This is a good price however if you don’t think you and your significant other will both get full use of this membership type, then maybe you want to consider just getting an individual court membership which costs $157 monthly plus the $150 initiation fee. 

This could leave you wondering if this type of membership is a good fit for you or not, due to the higher monthly costs. An essential factor in making this decision is whether you are wanting to pay extra per month for both of you to have full court access. This depends on if you and your significant other are avid tennis or pickleball players. 

 

Additional Fees For Tennis and Pickleball Classes

Even though the Couple’s Court Membership enables you full-court access, there are still additional fees you have to pay to participate in classes for both tennis and pickleball. 

 

Limited Access to the Club

While the Couple’s Court Membership opens up more parts of the club to members, club access isn’t quite unlimited. Without the platinum add-on, members don’t have an all-access pass to every part of the club. 

This includes Pilates, Masters Swim classes, locker access, and more weekly court clinic options. These classes are still available to non-platinum members, but they will cost an extra fee in addition to your monthly dues.

 

Think you’re ready for a Couple’s Court Membership at the Paseo Club?
