Meet August Member of the Month, Brandon Jackson. Brandon joined MINT more than a decade ago and has been a loyal member ever since. When asked what his experience with MINT has been, he said “MINT feels like home. I appreciate the special attention to detail and kindness MINT’s staff provide. It’s a real community where I feel like my needs are prioritized which I appreciate.”
When working out, Brandon strives for consistency over perfection and celebrates the small, but meaningful, small wins along his journey to becoming healthier.
Next time you see Brandon in the gym, or virtually during class be sure to say hello!

Ready to get back to the gym? MINT is open for by-appointment gym visits with many important changes, including mandatory mask-use while working out.
We understand that it can be overwhelming to pick out the right face covering for exercise, but here are a few key guidelines to help you work out safely and effectively.
FABRIC – Look for masks made of light, breathable, stretchy, and moisture-wicking fabric. Try to find the same type of material you’d look for in your workout clothes. Materials like spandex, polyester, or cotton can help allow for comfortable breathing and wick away sweat while still preventing the spread of the virus.
FIT – Make sure your face covering has a tight seal around the nose and mouth, but that you are still able to breathe comfortably. It’s also important to consider how your face covering is fastened. If your mask ties on or has elastic straps, adjust them so they are tight enough to keep your mask in place. Other face coverings typically made for exercise are buffs or gaiters, which fit around the neck but allow you to pull the fabric over the mouth.
EFFECTIVENESS – There are a few ways to test the effectiveness of your mask. Hold it up to a light source (sunlight, flashlight etc.) If you can see the light through the fabric, it’s not woven tightly enough. Your face covering is also probably not effective enough if you can blow out a candle while wearing it.
It may take some getting used to, but wearing your face covering at MINT will help keep the gym a safe place for everyone. We thank you all for doing your part in helping to stop the spread.

Topic: The Science of Happiness during Social Distancing
Host: Laura Trejo
Research indicates that your happiness is determined by three factors – 50% is from genetics, 40% is from your daily thoughts and intentional actions, and the remaining 10% is determined by your life circumstances. This webinar will explore how you can harness the intentional acts and daily thoughts that are in your control to help boost your happiness. Laura will lead you in Metta meditation to alleviate the effects of social distancing. At the end, we will provide a handout with suggested books, podcasts, websites, documentaries, and apps to help further develop your understanding of happiness.
- Our number 1 priority is to keep you safe while in the gym. Contingent on government information, our goal will be to offer ample opportunities to visit MINT, take classes, and work out with your personal trainer.
- Your check-in will be touchless.
- Our front desk staff is being trained to be part of the cleaning team and you will see them all around the facility doing just that.
- Look for a welcome back/safety screening form, which will be required to be completed 24+ hours before reentering. Questions like have you traveled recently, had any chance of being exposed to COVID-19, have you had any symptoms, etc. This form will NOT be available in the club.
- Gym time will require advanced registration (no drop-ins) and volume will be limited per social distancing guidelines.
- We plan to safely offer a limited number of in-person classes both indoors and outdoors and across all genres. When it is possible and safe we will ramp-up the volume of classes. Please note that attendance per class will be limited to allow proper social distancing. As per our regular procedures, all in-person classes will require advanced registration (no drop-ins).
- Some member amenities will phase in and not be available at first. Please plan accordingly as the following will not be available immediately upon reopening: showers, lockers, coffee, sauna, childcare, lounge area, MINTy water, and facecloths.
- During this closure, we have installed a new ‘touchless’ water fountain at MINT Dupont. A ‘touchless’ water fountain has already been available at MINT 14th St.
- If you have borrowed equipment, we will be calling for it to be returned soon; please plan accordingly; returned equipment will be thoroughly disinfected.
- Everyone entering the club will be required to wear their own mask while inside the club and waiting to enter.

Want to Help Support MINT Through This Troubling Time?
We’ve received a lot of inquiries asking how to help MINT through this, and we cannot possibly thank you enough for your kindness and generosity. Doing business in DC is VERY expensive – rent, taxes, utilities, and base salaries total more than $200,000 per month. If you consider pre-paying for your membership, training or really anything MINT related via a gift card, this will greatly help us at this time. You can apply the value anytime to anything at MINT.
If you are in the position to purchase a gift card, 10% of each gift card purchase goes to our new Support MINT Staff fund and MINT will match that amount. That means a total of 20% of each gift card purchased will go entirely to staff in need. We anticipate raising $5,000 to $10,000 or more.
When you’re ready to apply the value of your gift card please email accounting@mintdc.com
From the bottom of our hearts, we sincerely thank every one of you for your continued support, kind words and encouragement. If you have any questions or wish to speak to MINT founders/owners directly please email Patrick@mintdc.com or Melissa@mintdc.com.
