“A corporate exercise class is hugely beneficial to me, both physically and mentally. I know I have a weekly scheduled class with my colleagues which helps motivate me to attend. After a tough day at work, knowing I can take time to exercise is great. I get to unwind and stretch out after sitting at my desk all day.
If corporate exercise is an option for anyone, I highly recommend taking it. Knowing my company supports fitness shows me they care for my wellbeing.”
Vicki Lee
“Many studies have shown the benefits of providing employees with a facility to keep fit at work. Primarily this has led to a reduction in absence and sickness, an increase in retention and improved scores in employee satisfaction surveys.”

CORPORATE FITNESS
Why should any company do Corporate fitness?
Encouraging fitness in the workplace can actually be extremely beneficial for employers and their employees alike.
Endorphins are released during exercise, which mean that employees have more self-confidence and energy, they have more positive attitudes when at work, and they are less stressed too.
There is an element of teambuilding, bonding, during a shared exercise program.
During the initial stages of the Coronavirus lockdown, clients mentioned how nice it was for “ a slice of normal life”, put very succinctly by a client recently…
“I just wanted to say a big thank you for last night’s class. I can’t tell you how nice it was to have one bit of near normality in our surreal world. It’s obviously much harder to have a virtual class, but it was still great all the same.”

During this pandemic, we have actually seen an increase in Companies investing in a class to support their staffs health and wellbeing whilst working remotely.
In 2013 AEG Europe, asked Macksfitness to create a Staff Sports day event for them, held within The London Soccerdome. This was a Huge success with a repeat event requested almost immediately!
Macksfitness has conducted a case study into the effects of Pilates at the work place with the co-operation of the Environment Agency, this is available upon request.
A further point of interest to the finance department of many companies, is that Corporate Fitness classes are also tax deductable, so many businesses choose to use Macksfitness classes as part of their employee benefits package!
