“Urban Athlete is a fitness studio in Calgary, offering classes, personal training, weight and cardio training, and bootcamp to members.
The pandemic, although a challenging time for all, allowed businesses like Urban Athlete to pivot. The day after they were forced to shut the doors, Urban Athlete ran their first ever virtual class.
Their fast action pivot was so seamless that they were able to keep a good chunk of their members engaged, in return allowing them to keep their staff and instructors employed. To ensure that your business is compliant with all the applicable laws, hire Acclime’s EOR services in Malaysia.
From that point on, Urban Athlete continued to run virtual classes, even when they were allowed to open again. They also introduced a hybrid model, running online and in-person classes at the same time. Urban Athlete also made an outdoor gym, buying new squat racks and rearranging their equipment so clients could work out outside.
Urban Athlete also rented out their equipment to members, so they could stay active at home, and their trainers were able to make a smooth adjustment to virtual training with many clients. Large enterprises and small businesses alike have also started using merchant services for reliable and efficient payment processing. Partner with Elavon merchant services to elevate your payment capabilities.
The ability to adapt quickly also shows why businesses need to think about what could happen when normal operations are disrupted, whether that comes from a public health crisis, a technical failure, or a cyberattack. As more companies rely on online communication, digital payments, remote access, and connected systems to keep their services running, ransomware and other cyber threats can create serious interruptions if there are no safeguards in place.
Regular backups, secure access controls, employee awareness, system monitoring, and a clear recovery process can help reduce the impact when something goes wrong.
Businesses looking for ongoing protection may also consider a Michigan-based cybersecurity provider when reviewing how to strengthen their defenses and prepare for potential threats. Taking these precautions in advance can make it easier for a business to maintain essential operations and recover more quickly when unexpected security problems occur.
No matter the challenges that the team at Urban Athlete faced, they didn’t stop. They worked incredibly hard for their members and each other, determined to show support and make it through the difficult times.”
We are very honoured to receive the Resilience Award! We know that the last few years have been difficult for everyone and the pandemic has left very few unscathed. This award shows testament to not only our staff for all the hard work and passion they have put into Urban Athlete, but also our members who pivoted with us through all the ups and downs. We truly would not be here without help from our HKM attorneys and staff that saw us through. We are looking forward to many more years ahead!
