read moreFitness entrepreneur Tony de Leede has expanded the ‘wello’ concept that he has been advocating for several years with the launch of the Wello Works co-working venue in the Sydney suburb of Rosebery.
Opened yesterday and previewed at a launch event last Thursday, de Leede hopes that this first Wello Works will expand in Australia and internationally over the coming years.
With a second location to open in Atlanta, Georgia, USA next month, Wello Works links features common within coworking spaces with a series of wellness elements designed to promote a productive and restorative environment.
Recognising the demand for co-working spaces - that have expanded in the post-pandemic working environment - and also how the community has prioritised wellness over recent years, de Leede developed Wello Works as a way of integrating co-working and wellness under one roof.
The word ‘wello’ was coined by de Leede as a modern and health-oriented variation on Australia’s traditional ‘smoko’, the cigarette break people would take during their working hours.
These wellness breaks reflect Wello Works’ commitment to offering a work environment that encourages an emphasis on incorporating positive activities into the workday that prioritise self-care.
With Wello Works building on his former Club W concept, De Leede notes “the ‘wello’ is an evolution from traditional ‘smoko’, designed to promote a healthier and more balanced workplace that encompasses movement, mindfulness, wellbeing and holistic health.
“Wello Works is a bold step forward by redefining the concept of breaks during the workday. The transition from smoko to wello reflects a commitment to offering an environment that, through taking wellness breaks not only improves health but also enhances productivity.”
Within Wello Works Rosebery there are two distinct space - Wello Coworking, and Wello Collective.
Wello Coworking provides a work environment for both individuals and teams, with a versatile setup, including private offices, workstations and meeting rooms.
It features a wellness lounge, which encompasses massage chairs, O2 breathing, and meditation chairs, a virtual movement studio and a Zen Immersive Room.
The lounge is a relaxed space for both mingling with others and also for simply stepping away from the desk for a while.
Housing state-of-the-art wellness amenities, the standalone Wello Collective includes an array of premium offerings including HydroMassage, LED LightTherapy Bed, Relax Meditation Pods, Infrared Sauna with Salt Bricks, CryoLounge - Cold/Hot Therapy and Somadome deep meditation. Sessions range from 10 to 20 minutes and the Wello Collective is independent from Co-working (Co-working membership is not required).
Amenities within the Wello Collective are supplied by Forte Fitness Solutions (ForteFit) and de Leede’s own Wellness Solutions.
Offering a range of membership levels, Wello Works is located at 74 Mentmore Avenue, Rosebery with its doors open from 9am to 5pm.
