About
The Healthworks Mission: To be the leader in women's health and wellness
by providing exceptional experiences through fitness, service and support
throughout our clubs and the community.
Healthworks started in 1977, a small fitness club with big dreams. Now, with
over three decades of experience, Healthworks has expanded into Greater
Boston's premier fitness centers for women with over 18,000 members, over
500 employees, 5 locations, and 2 non-profit fitness centers.
Healthworks' goal is to create a community centered on leading healthy
lifestyles- with hundreds of group classes offered every week, a team of
qualified personal trainers, a spa-like atmosphere in the locker rooms, and
a wide variety of equipment. Our entire staff is wholly dedicated to
providing personalized and progressive fitness programming especially for
women.
But we are much more than just a gym. Healthworks Extras extends our
community far beyond the fitness centers' walls by connecting with local
restaurants, boutiques, and salons in order to create fun events. We have an
active following on Twitter and Facebook, where members can find the newest
health and fitness trends, delicious recipes, exercise ideas, and much more!
A large part of what we do, and something that Healthworks is proud to be a
part of, is the effort we make to give back to the community which has
provided us with so much. In 2002, The Healthworks Community Fitness opened
a free, non-profit fitness center in Dorchester, which currently serves
hundreds of homeless and low-income women in the community. In October 2008,
Healthworks Community Fitness expanded to a second location at Codman
Square. There, the goal is to improve the fitness level of both adults and
children, the healthy and unhealthy, the fit and unfit. We accomplish our
goal daily by giving opportunities for women and children to participate in
regular, low cost fitness programs. A percentage of Healthworks total
profits goes towards funding Healthworks Community Fitness.
