The route in, step by step
6 steps from where you are now.
A fitness, yoga or nutrition qualification Required
Fitness certification, YCB yoga certification, or a nutrition degree. Corporate clients check credentials more carefully than individual clients do.
Work with individuals first Required
Two or three years training people one to one. Corporate groups are harder, not easier - varied fitness levels, low motivation and a fixed hour.
Learn what corporates actually buy Required
Sedentary-work problems - back and neck pain, stress, sleep and lifestyle disease risk. Programmes are bought by HR against absenteeism and engagement, not against fitness goals.
Deliver programmes Required
On-site sessions, wellness days, ergonomic and posture workshops, and challenge programmes. Consistency of attendance is the metric HR watches.
Learn to sell and report Required
Proposals, pricing and participation reporting. Corporate wellness is a B2B sale on annual budgets, which is a completely different skill from training.
Build a practice or join a provider Optional
A retainer practice with several corporates, or a role with a corporate wellness provider.
