A Class Act: Joe Wicks’ The Body Coach App Offers Free Access to Teachers

Three-month initiative aims to support health and wellbeing of the nation’s teachers

Affectionately known as the nation’s PE teacher, Joe Wicks has played a huge part in inspiring the next generation to embrace physical fitness. Now, he’s turning his attention to the nation’s teachers in a bid to improve their health and wellbeing.

 

Ahead of the start of the new school year, Joe Wicks is offering three months free access to his award-winning app to all teachers and teaching staff in the UK and Ireland, in an initiative designed to combat work-related stress and boost wellbeing by getting more teachers moving than ever before.

The Body Coach app is issuing a nationwide call-out to all education professionals, urging them to take advantage of the offer and experience all the benefits that come with regular exercise, including greater energy levels, better sleep, improved focus and overall better physical and mental health.

Teachers occupy a unique position as role models to children across the nation, but also experience levels of work-related stress that are 50% above average¹, which may hamper them from sufficiently prioritising their own physical and mental wellbeing.

 

The initiative, which first launched in 2022, seeks to overcome this barrier, as well as to make a regular commitment to fitness more financially accessible to teachers in the current climate of rising cost of living.

By signing up to The Body Coach App, teachers will get access to a structured workout and nutrition plan, with recipes and workouts which change and progress monthly in order to guide them towards reaching their fitness goals.

 

Speaking about the initiative, Joe Wicks urges: “I really hope every teacher in the UK takes up this offer of three months free on the Body Coach app, because it can really help change their lives in so many ways.

“I want teachers to feel calmer, less stressed, more patient, more energised and just happier in themselves. That’s what regular exercise combined with a healthy diet can do. I truly believe that fit, healthy and happy teachers will help and inspire children to feel the same.

 

“If you are a teacher, please sign up and get involved – and if you’re not, you probably know someone who is, so please share it with them, and help us to help even more people to get moving!”

 

The Body Coach App offer will be available for all teachers and teaching staff who are not currently app subscribers to redeem from 29 August to 2 October, by following a simple registration process requiring a legitimate teacher’s email address. Following verification, a code will be issued which can be redeemed on The Body Coach App, giving three months’ free access.
