Corporate Membership Plans at The J

Companies that value the health and wellness of their employees will be pleased to know The J offers a corporate rate. By taking advantage of The J’s corporate membership plan, organizations can help their employees lead active lifestyles that help them achieve their fitness goals. Corporate membership also comes with several membership perks, such as childcare during your workout, discounts on group programs, and access to arts and culture events.

What employees really love about being on the corporate membership plan is that it’s great for team building and group activities. In fact, many of our corporate members use their lunch break to catch a quick workout or take one of our many fitness classes to break up the day. The J even offers virtual fitness classes for those employees who can’t make it for an in-person session.

Getting in a solid workout and breaking a sweat is a proven way to help fight off the stress; however, the sauna and steam room are fantastic alternatives for employees looking for a peaceful place to unwind. With all the physical and mental health benefits The J provides, employers will notice their workforce is more energetic and ready to take on the day.
