CORPORATE WELLNESS

"A cultural shift is gradually occurring in Australia. Employers, health system payers and individuals are increasingly seeing the benefit of the workplace as a setting for optimising physical, psychological and social health". "Workplace wellness in Australia" (Pricewaterhouse Coopers, commisioned by Medibank Health Solutions)

Many business analysts concur that the most significant competitive advantage of any organisation is its employees. Consequently, a growing number of successful organisations incorporate health and wellness programs into existing work practices and assert that such activities foster greater workplace and business productivity. The importance of employee satisfaction is undeniable; in fact, its direct relationship to a business’ exponential growth and success rate has been a prominent field of study in recent years. Nowadays, implementing 'well-being' programs into the workplace environment is no-longer considered innovative - innovative businesses consider it fundamental.

The Designed for Corporate programs enhance physical, mental and emotional well-being by specifically addressing three key areas directly linked to business prosperity; concentration, creativity and collaboration. These skills are developed during dance and fitness sessions that expand cognitive abilities, improve emotional states and promote exercise whilst cultivating a deeper connection to one’s self and to others.
