A pioneer in the wellness industry, Aman has always delivered a holistic and integrative wellness experience, designed to take care of mind, body and spirit.
While firmly rooted in the notions of peace and privacy, and integrating local healing traditions, this approach is constantly evolving, with the brand now pleased to introduce one of the world’s greatest athletes ever, Novak Djokovic, as its first Global Wellness Advisor.
Entering a multi-year partnership, Djokovic will bring his decades of success to the fore, enhancing Aman’s guest wellness offering through exclusively designed programmes and events that draw on his mental and physical wellbeing experience both on and off the court.
In addition, he will have an adversarial role with Aman Essentials, specifically focusing on future product development and extensions of the brand, as relates to wellbeing.
The winner of the most Grand Slam titles in the history of men’s tennis, Djokovic has consistently demonstrated his dominance in the sport on an international stage. His relentless pursuit of excellence, mental resilience and exceptional skill set him apart as a true icon of the sport.
A world record holder for the greatest number of weeks at World Number 1, his journey extends far beyond tennis success with his dedication to fitness, innovative training techniques and strategic play having inspired countless athletes worldwide, bringing a new dimension to the game. Most recently, he achieved a career ‘Golden Slam’ by winning the Olympic Gold Medal at the Paris 2024 Games.
The partnership with Aman will grow and develop year on year, with early plans across the brand’s properties including (but not limited to); special events for Aman Club and Residence owners; annual hosted wellness retreats; and specially curated programmes available to guests year-round.
Perfectly aligning with Aman’s wellness philosophy and the notion of longevity that rests at its heart, Djokovic is an athlete whose resilience and adaptability have allowed him to stay at the pinnacle of tennis for over a decade.
“To remain competitive at the highest level, over an extended time period, demands far more than skill,” shared Djokovic.
“Over the years, I have cultivated a comprehensive daily wellness routine, combining mental health, nutrition and fitness, that has enabled me to achieve sustained success both on the global stage and in my personal life. Sharing those learnings with Aman guests will be both a privilege and a pleasure.”
A further merger of leading voices in Aman’s wellness space, the advisership follows the successful appointment of Maria Sharapova as an Aman Global Wellness Ambassador in 2023.
As part of Aman’s wellness programming, Maria Sharapova is set to host Building Resilience: A Maria Sharapova Retreat at Amanzoe in Greece from 23 – 26 September, while her exclusively curated, half-day Strength and Recovery programme is currently available as part of Aman New York’s daily spa programming.
About Aman
Aman was founded in 1988 with the vision of building a collection of intimate retreats with the unassuming, warm hospitality of a gracious private home. The first, Amanpuri (place of peace), in Phuket, Thailand, introduced the concept and, since then, Aman has grown to encompass 35 exquisitely serene hotels, resorts and branded residences, ranging from the urban to the remote, in 20 destinations across the globe. Aman has a robust pipeline of future projects under construction.
In recent years, Aman Group has grown to offer its coveted lifestyle beyond the parameters of its havens including Aman Skincare (2018), supplement range Sva (2020), Aman Fine Fragrance (2020), ready-to-wear collection The Essentials by Aman (2021), performance skincare line Aman Essential Skin (2023) and Aman Interiors (2023) offering bespoke designed furniture items inspired by the world of Aman.
With innovation a cornerstone of the brand’s philosophy, in 2020 Aman introduced a new hotel brand, Janu – meaning ‘soul’ in Sanskrit. Janu offers a unique take on hospitality where genuine human interaction, playful expression and social wellness are at the core of the experience. Janu aims to bring balance to the head and heart and rekindle the soul. In March 2024, Janu’s inaugural hotel, Janu Tokyo, opened its doors and several forthcoming Janu hotels are already in development.
