Get Physical At Wynyard Park

Fitness is now all in a day’s work for employees at the Wynyard Park site, thanks to an exciting range of exercise classes now available to site tenants as well as the public

Body 2 Fit, a unique healthcare business based at the site’s Evolution complex, is running Pilates, yoga and dance classes (including ballroom and latin) throughout the day, on an evening and at weekends, to fit in with people’s busy schedules.

 

Classes are run from Body 2 Fit’s purpose-built studio by teachers who are members of the country’s leading schools in Pilates, yoga and dance, including Body Control Pilates, Pilates Foundation, The British Wheel of Yoga and The International Dance Teachers’ Association, all of which enforce strict codes of teaching. 

 

Classes are being continuously added to meet growing demand and in the future Body 2 Fit is looking to add children’s Pilates, aerobics and tai chi classes to its timetable.

 

Michelle Henderson, a Contracts Manager from Wynyard Park based SEMTA, the Sector Skills Council for science, engineering and manufacturing technologies in the UK, has attended the Body 2 Fit Pilates classes.  She said: “It’s great to have this sort of facility on site that can be accessed during lunch and after work with a variety of classes to choose from.  The lunchtime Pilates class is proving a big hit with my colleagues and is a good way to meet other people from the site as well as providing an energising boost before going back to the office!”

 

Robert White, one of the directors at Body 2 Fit, has been impressed by the take up so far: “Having been established as a provider of physiotherapy and sports injury treatment, we had a lot of clients keen to attend the clinic as soon as it was built. The first classes were filled by word of mouth alone and the response since has been incredible. Having settled into the new facilities we are now hoping to attract more interest from the neighbouring businesses at Wynyard Park and we are working with them to accommodate their needs so they can find time for exercise within their busy schedules.”

 

Body 2 Fit was set up by Robert and fellow director Joy Feary last September following the success of Physio 2 Fit, a private physiotherapy and sports injury clinic.

 

The business offers a range of healthcare services and aside from the exercise classes, it now encompasses the specialist physiotherapy services previously offered by Physio 2 Fit, as well as sports medicine, occupational healthcare and chiropody/podiatry.  It is the first purpose-built facility in Teesside to offer Pilates, Yoga, Dance, Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine all under one roof.

 

Body 2 Fit employs 10 staff, including Rob and Joy, some on a full-time and some on a part-time basis, all of whom have extensive experience in their chosen fields of healthcare.

 

The Body 2 Fit headquarters based at Wynyard Park’s Evolution complex was purpose built to accommodate the services available and features a large studio for classes, a large rehabilitation studio, two private treatment rooms and a private chiropody/podiatry suite.

 

Said Rob: “Wynyard Park perfectly matched the needs of Body 2 Fit because of its facilities, design and accessibility.”

 

Body 2 Fit also has a reciprocal relationship with independently owned firm, Scan-2-Fit, which operates a private scanning business from within Body 2 Fit’s premises.
