In our private members club, we offer an outstanding experience from start to finish, whether you take a dip in the glorious indoor pools, try out the latest high-tech fitness equipment or relax on the terrace or in the gardens. Our expertise and facilities are renowned in the sports world, with award-winning tennis coaches, spa therapists and personal trainers who dedicate themselves to enhancing your wellbeing.

Our restaurant and extensive terrace are the social focuses of the club, where an ongoing timetable of social, cultural, sporting and networking events happen, and members meet and dine.

We are an outgoing and lively club: group classes are designed to be fun and sociable, and our outstanding Academy children’s programme puts as much emphasis on bonding with peers as it does on physical development.

At Aspria, one of our major aims is to bring families together for quality leisure and wellbeing time. Aspria Royal La Rasante’s carefully designed classes, camps, activities and other services and facilities aim to make life easier for parents and more fun for juniors.

From the supervised crèche and children’s menus to the award-winning Academy programme tailored to different childhood developmental stages, we make sure our youngest members are active, happy and cared for.

Aspria Royal La Rasante embodies the Aspria values of excellence in equipment, service and surroundings, which have earned our flagship Brussels club a coveted Royal Warrant. We’re proud to be a part of it – and hope our members are too.

Founding an icon
We began life as a lawn tennis club.
In 1902, the Rasante Lawn Tennis Club was founded on the Chaussée de Waterloo, close to the Bois de la Cambre, by three yachting enthusiasts who wanted a place to keep active when on dry land. The club was a success, and in 1907 they moved to a bigger plot on Rue du Duc, replacing the grass tennis courts with crushed brick ones for ease of play. The club continued to grow in membership and outdoor sporting facilities, adding a hockey pitch in 1922.

Settling in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert
We have occupied our current home for more than 90 years.

A turning point in the club’s history came in 1923, when it moved to the old Noyers Farm at Woluwe-Saint-Lambert, totally modernising the buildings but retaining much of its traditional character. After almost 100 years, it is still our home.

Continuing a long tradition
La Rasante Lawn Tennis Club continued to thrive until the rise of different leisure activities and more competition on the market saw membership dwindle, and the club closed in 1997.

Happily, Aspria bought and redeveloped the famous club as Aspria Royal La Rasante, reopening it in 2005 to once again promote sporting values of tenacity, appetite for challenge and the pursuit of excellence.

Into the future
Today, our club has more than 5,000 members using an outstanding array of facilities: 7 tennis courts, a training pool and a leisure pool, 15 different wellbeing zones in the gym, steam bath, sauna, restaurant and a beauty salon.

We’re proud to continue the tradition of Brussels’ most famous sporting club, supporting and inspiring our members to be fit, healthy and prepared for modern life.

Aspria is a company of experts, from our personal trainers and spa therapists to our nutritionists, coaches and childhood specialists. Committed to excellence in everything we do, our collective expertise is the driver delivering the most innovative private members clubs in Europe.

Did you know your children will do better at school – in terms of their behaviour in the classroom, their ability to focus, and even their academic achievements if they are physically active on a regular basis?
