Corporate fitness · Ireland · Since 1984
I'm Brendan Hackett. I founded Motions in 1984 to bring fitness into Irish workplaces. We design, staff and run gyms for employers, so you get one that's busy, safe and looked after.
Take the whole lot, or just the part you need.
Tell us about the space and the people who'll use it. We plan the layout, choose equipment that suits your team and your budget, and work alongside your facilities people through the fit-out.
A good instructor is what turns a room of equipment into a gym people come back to. We place qualified staff on site to run inductions, classes and one-to-one programmes.
Opening hours, cleaning standards, equipment care, health and safety. We look after the day-to-day so it doesn't land on HR or facilities.
Challenges, classes and talks built around your teams and your shift patterns. On site, remote, or a mix of both.
A gym on site is about more than fitness. When people feel better, it shows up everywhere else at work.
People who feel looked after give more.
Regular activity means better health.
Fitter, rested people think clearly.
Fewer people at their desks running on empty.
Visible care builds loyalty.
Good people want to work there.
Ring or send a message. We'll talk through your space, your people and what you're hoping for.
A clear proposal covering layout, equipment, staffing and programmes, sized to your budget.
We handle the fit-out, put the right people in place and get your team through the door.
We run it day to day and check in regularly, so the gym stays used and the programme stays fresh.
Whatever your business, employee wellbeing is crucial to success.
I founded Motions in 1984, and I've spent 40 years coaching at every level, from beginners to Olympians. I've worked with Irish athletes and teams at five Olympic Games as a mental fitness specialist, managed inter-county football teams, coached the Irish International Rules team, and was the first CEO of Athletics Ireland.
I have a degree in physical education and a master's in sport psychology, and I'm working on a professional doctorate in human performance and innovation. I also speak to businesses about getting the most from their people.
My book on mental fitness, Success From Within, came out in 1998, and I now host a podcast of the same name. You'll find both at brendanhackett.ie.
Tell me a little about your workplace and what you have in mind, and I'll get back to you personally. A first chat usually covers your space, how many people you have, your hours and your budget.
