In today’s society, connection is key! As a healthy life company, we know technology plays a big role in our daily lives, but at the core of being human, there is something irreplaceable about gathering in person.
Connection helps draw people to your space. With most of the workforce adhering to a hybrid work-from-home and office model, it’s essential to think about intentional connections on and off-site to make your spaces more relevant and desirable. We believe on-site fitness and amenity spaces should work synergistically with digital offerings to provide connected hubs that leverage both human and digital connections. This synergy not only promotes a healthy lifestyle but also increases the connection to the workspace.
By offering diverse tenant amenities, we help build a better sense of belonging and well-being among patrons.
The Power of Cafes and Grab & Go
Cafes and lounges are more than just spots for coffee or a quick meal—they can be dynamic social hubs where individuals and teams come together. These spaces can offer a blend of experiences fostering a sense of community, connection, health and culinary education. You can leverage your amenities to build experiences that help drive not only a culture of connection and community but also one with wellness at the forefront. Think about regular health education of food being served, healthy samples, stretch breaks in the lounge or even an organized group coffee walk meeting at the cafe. Create opportunities where people don’t want to leave!
Fitness as a Social Hub
These days fitness is more than just an onsite physical location. Fitness can follow you wherever you want to connect. Of course, onsite fitness centers are recognized for their role in physical health, but they can also drive social and digital connections. Having digital and social tools to help foster fitness inside and outside of the four walls of an onsite facility is extremely important. Social connections can form in person, but digital tools can be an accessory to your onsite amenities. From accountability with challenges or goal setting to liking a co-worker’s workout, or watching an on-demand fitness class if your schedule gets shifted, digital can help elevate this offering.
With a hybrid approach intentionally combining onsite connection and digital resources, fitness can provide a space where individuals can pursue their health goals while engaging with a community of like-minded people.
Community and Connection
A group setting is a great place to help people feel connected and a part of something greater. Fitness centers, group fitness classes, personal training sessions, boutique fitness experiences and wellness workshops are great ways to foster connection. These activities create opportunities for members to bond over shared interests and fitness goals. The camaraderie and support found in group settings can be a powerful motivator, encouraging regular attendance and long-term commitment to fitness.
Diverse Tenant Amenities
Developers increasingly recognize the value of integrating diverse tenant amenities into their projects. By providing versatile spaces, they create environments that attract a broad audience. The convenience of having multiple amenities in close proximity enhances the overall appeal and functionality of the development, making it a preferred destination for socializing and wellness.
