Several years ago we had a young triathlete/PT along to one of our workshops. He then went on to do our sports massage course along with his wife, who was also a PT. Together they owned a small independent gym in Dronfield, Sheffield called <a href="http://www.woodlandsfitnesscentre.co.uk/corrective-exercise">Woodlands Fitness Centre</a>.

Then Matt Sanderson asked if we would deliver a private Biomechanics Coach™ Diploma for his entire team at his gym and so it all began with Pelvis Biomechanics in August 2014…

The 9 x strong team who are all PT’s, massage therapists and group ex instructors work together delivering a fluid system that really is second to none and, in my opinion, exactly how ALL gym facilities should run when it comes to the way they communicate with each other and also the way they deliver their services.

With pretty much everything included within the membership; compulsory biomechanics screening and 1:1 training from fully qualified staff with diverse skills that allow best duty of care to each member. The inter referral system really is of a high standard.

Each member of the team specialises in either PT, group ex, nutrition or massage but ALL of them are now fully qualified Biomechanics Coaches™. The Biomechanics Coach™ model is what seems to have cemented their connection and was the missing link which has allowed an even smoother system of cross referral and communication.

What has struck me most about this group is not only the bond and respect between them all but the quality and efficiency in their service to their members who receive the highest standards possible.

Their members really do come first.

With all of their case studies successfully completed they can now be recognised as the largest group of fully qualified Biomechanics Coaches™ working together under one roof in the UK.

Each time I have visited their facility I have noticed more and more how they excel at what they do and how Matt has created possibly one of the best clubs in the UK. With organised workshops to educate members, exciting events to encourage members to create goals, a brand new display board each visit, iMoveFreely® classes, inductions, systemised training, exercise plans with bespoke prescription, online client monitoring system, every member known by name and this beautiful fluid system of communication between everyone that results in a confident team effort that is all about looking after members and each other.

While this might be classed as a ‘small family run’ gym I still feel the core ethos Matt has developed is how ALL gyms should run their services and the proof is in the client retention and staff turnover.

Having delivered each workshop at Woodlands myself I have to say this was a real pleasure for me and then over the last few weeks reading their case studies confirmed the level of this group. The TEAM strength is what makes the difference and I can imagine how much job satisfaction it would bring to be a part of TEAM Woodlands!

Are you faced with the challenge of bringing a team together?
