You've Never Done Sauna Like This

Three rounds of heat & cold led by a trained gusmaster.
Social wellness powered by community.

The Art of Saunagus

01
The Gusmaster
The trained guide (sauna master) who orchestrates your entire session.
02
Heat
170–210°F. Three tiers of seating (higher is hotter). Properly built for airflow & breathability.
03
Löyly
The wave of steam when water meets hot rocks. Finnish for the soul & spirit of the sauna.
04
Essential Oils
Mixed into the löyly. Each scent has its special effect on the mind and body.
05
Towel Dance
The gusmaster dances the towel, sending waves of heat and oil across the room. To the music.
06
Music
A curated soundtrack every session, sometimes with live instruments. Volume and style pair with your session.
07
Breathwork
Your breath is your foundation. We focus on it, refill with new oxygen and release the old.
08
Ambiance
Precise lighting, wood smells, eyes closed, body relaxed, beautiful design = Cosiness & Comfort.
09
Cold
38–45°F. After the sauna, we group plunge. The contrast is where the magic happens.
10
Community
We built Icebreak for real connection. Sweat & plunge together. That's social wellness.

Session Types

Your 60 Minute Journey

Three rounds of heat and cold led by a trained sauna master, powered by community and friends.

Start
Arrive

Check in, change, rinse off, and take your seat in the colosseum.

Round 1
The Icebreak

The first löyly rises. Then the cold hits, the gasp, the rush.

Round 2
Deeper

The heat goes deeper. Sweat pours. Focus sharpens.

Round 3
The Peak

Heat at its highest. Fully here. The final plunge sends you home.

After
Après Social

Stick around 15+ minutes in the low-heat afterglow. Strangers become friends.

Optional but encouraged
Finish
Leave Buzzing

Sharper, happier, lighter. The feeling lasts well into tomorrow.

Everyone's Different

Our facilitators are the heartbeat of Icebreak. Each one brings their own music, heat, and energy to the sauna. Everything you feel in a session, that's them.

50 Person Sauna

Purpose-built from the ground up. Finnish sauna design, sauna-safe materials, proper airflow. Scandinavian-approved for high heat and oxygen flow.

This is the real thing. A true Finnish sauna built for aufguss the way it's meant to be done, with genuine wood, deep heat, and rich steam.

Tiered stadium seating wraps around a center stage where the facilitator leads. Sit higher for more heat, lower for less, and every seat is a good seat.

Born in Denmark.
Built for Denver.

We grew up with saunagus in Denmark. It's not exotic there. It's just part of life. After work, on weekends, with friends or on your own.

Not a bar. Not a gym. Not sitting alone scrolling through self-care content. It's the option nobody in Colorado has yet.

When we moved here, we looked for it. It didn't exist. People had saunas, but no culture around them. No education, no guidance, no experience worth talking about. So we decided to build the real thing.

"The first time you try it, you'll wonder why this doesn't exist everywhere."
