Equilibrium was formed in 2002 through the vision of Alasdair Lane, a former Army Physical Training Instructor and the Health Club & Spa Operations consultant to Campbell Gray Hotels. His mission was to form the UK's premium Wellness Company, providing bespoke solutions to all your Health & Fitness requirements. This is achieved by treating every one of Equilibrium's clients as an individual with individual needs. Everyone is different and there is never a “one size fits all” solution when it comes to the wellbeing of a person. Since he started in the industry he has trained people from all walks of life, from celebrities to business executives to busy parents. This ability to interact with such a diverse group of people has ensured his individual success and this skill has been passed on to his team helping with the overall success of the company. Equilibrium currently offers Personal Training on a one to one basis, at either one of their sites or in the privacy of your own home. They also provide bespoke outdoor adventure training packages to suit your adventurous desires, such as mountain biking, rock climbing and hill walking. If that doesn’t take your fancy and you would prefer to exercise indoors Equilibrium can offer a home gym design service that will suit your budget and the space you have available. Currently under development is Equilibrium’s own online Personal Training website and CD-ROM – The Virtual Gym - which should be released in May 2006. This has been designed so that we can help reduce the UK’s current obesity problem by becoming more accessible to a larger number of the public. With the Virtual Gym they can get support and access to Equilibrium’s highly skilled and experienced trainers, even if they do not have the budget to afford Personal Training on a regular one to one basis. Personal Training is the most effective way of achieving your health and fitness goals no matter your age or level of fitness. The objective of Equilibrium is to achieve synchronicity between these three aspects of Wellness and your everyday life, with the minimal of disturbance but with maximal effect. We are professional and holistic with our approach but realistic also, as we understand the pressures of work and family life. Our unique approach to training finds the client working closely with their trainer in order to set achievable but challenging goals from which then a programme will be developed. This will be will be closely monitored by the trainer in order for you to achieve them. Our Personal Training sessions can be carried out in the privacy of your own home or at one of our current training locations. Above all, exercise should be fun, engaging yet still effective.

Health Club & Spa Performance Recovery The performance of a facility such as a Spa tends to only be measured in areas that the senior management of the organisation understand. These tend to be financial performance and the service given to the guest. For these two areas to be successful, a considerable number of other areas must have their performance monitored and controlled. Equilibrium can identify these key performance indicators and produce a strategy to improve them and thereby underpin the financial success of the facility. Health Club & Spa Operational Solutions As businesses develop, more and more emphasis is placed on cost cutting and cost controlling to provide a competitive advantage. Equilibrium can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your operations to reduce wastage and maximise your productivity with the minimal cost implication. We can produce the right operational model for your facility, working in synergy with the rest of your organisation and without compromising service standards. Health Club & Spa Human Resources Solutions Having the right staff is the key to a successful business. Selecting the right staff is difficult but holding on to them even harder. Equilibrium can provide you with the tools to select the right staff and produce a strategy for you to hold on to them. From the selection process right through to the development of the staff, we will help to reduce your staff turnover and improve the service provided by them to your guests. Stakeholders in organisations are more and more demanding about the returns they receive on their investments meaning that productivity is becoming more and more important in the work place. Keeping the workforce motivated and operating effectively can only improve productivity and thereby improve the profit margin. This can only be done if the number of sick days taken by employees is kept to a minimum. The healthier and fitter the work force is less days are lost through illness. Motorola currently invests $6 million annually into its Wellness Initiatives programme, which promotes the long term health of its employees, family members, and retirees! In the US Department of Health and Human Services report (Prevention Makes Common Cents, 2003) it was found that this Motorola scheme saves the company $3.93 for every $1 spent. That is a staggering $23.6 million saved. This was done through increased productivity, decreased absence and sickness. These are examples of Motorola Wellness initiatives around the world: Wellness centres at many company sites offer state of- the-art workout equipment, classes, personal training and outdoor activities. For U.S. employees, Motorola covers membership fees at company wellness centres or reimburses the fees for outside centres. Annual health fairs, tournaments, leagues and "just for fun" physical fitness activities occur at company sites throughout the year. Hundreds of classes are held regularly in facilities around the world, on topics ranging from cancer prevention to preparing healthy food. Web-based training is available on a variety of health topics. Equilibrium can provide you with the Wellness solution to suit your organisation and help increase your productivity and profit.
