The fitness industry can be a lonely place. Whether you’re a gym-goer, personal trainer, or gym owner, the fitness industry can sometimes feel like an isolating place. This is why, here at One Coaching, we put community at the forefront of what we do. 

Here’s why community matters to us:

Motivation Matters

Sticking to a fitness routine can be tough. A supportive community offers encouragement, celebrates wins, and holds you accountable when you need it. Being in the presence of others who are hitting their targets, getting PBs, and making mad progress can reignite your motivation to reach your goals. 

Knowledge is Power

No one has all the answers and there’s always more to learn. A strong community allows the sharing of knowledge. Members can learn from each other’s experiences, ask questions, and build on others’ experiences. Healthy recipes and nutrition tips can also be shared – who’s meal prep looks the best? The group chat will decide. 

Building a Brand

A community becomes an extension of the brand. When members feel valued and connected, they’re more likely to help the community grow. The more of us the better. The more we can learn and the more we can share. 

From Clients to Friends

A strong community encourages connections that you might not have experienced. Shared experiences, challenges overcome, and goals achieved create great bonds. Sharing the space with people who have very similar interests and commitments to you is so refreshing and inspiring. This definitely helps with the sense of belonging, direction, and community. Additionally, it just makes your journey more fun. 

If you join the team, you’ll become part of the One Coaching community. This includes:

  • Access to the Whatsapp client group chat where you can share what you’re up to, what targets you’ve hit, what your meals are looking like. Coaches will also post any updates here.
  • Quarterly meet ups. Every few months, all clients and coaches get together for a gym sesh and a meal out afterwards. It’s a great way to get to know other clients, get to know your coaches and just have a fun time training. 
  • Merch! All One Coaching clients will be given hoodies and t-shirts so they can rep the brand. 

Building a community is so important to us. We want people to feel supported, motivated, and empowered. Want to be a part of our community?

Join the team.
