Temporary closure - red area

Chers membres,

Pour faire suite au dernier point de presse du gouvernement, voici les mesures qui seront exigées par la Santé publique pour l’ensemble des gyms au Québec à partir du 1er septembre prochain.

À votre arrivée, pour accéder à votre gym, vous devrez présenter votre code QR 2e dose, une pièce d’identité valide (permis de conduire/carte d’assurance maladie) ainsi que votre carte de membre. Une fois votre code QR validé par l’application, vous serez invité à entrer dans votre gym en respectant les mesures sanitaires mises en place depuis plusieurs mois et que vous connaissez déjà. Veuillez noter que le code QR 2e dose n’est pas requis pour les membres de 12 ans et moins. Si vous ne possédez pas votre code QR 2e dose, nous vous invitons à communiquer avec votre gym par téléphone pour pour connaître les options qui s’offrent à vous concernant votre abonnement.

Nous vous remercions de votre précieuse et indéfectible collaboration au cours des derniers mois.

Bon entrainement!



AUGUST 25

Dear members,

Further to the government’s latest press briefing, the following measures will now be required by public health for all gyms starting this September 1.

To access your gym when you arrive, you’ll have to show your second-dose QR code and a valid ID (driver’s licence/health insurance card) along with your membership card. Once your QR code has been validated by the application, you’ll be asked to follow the health measures—the ones that have been in place for several months now and which you already know about—when you’re in the gym. Please note that the second-dose QR code is not required for members aged 12 and under. If you do not have your second-dose QR code, please call your gym to find out what membership options are available to you.

We thank you for your valuable and unfailing collaboration over the past few months.

Have a wonderful workout!

FEBRUARY 3TH

Dear Member,

As you probably heard yesterday, Prime Minister Legault gave the green light to the reopening of gyms located in the orange zone. This announcement comes as a soothing balm on the ongoing situation; we are really enthusiastic about being allowed to reopen two of our gyms located in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region as early as February 8.

Because our gyms located in the red zone remain closed for the moment being, we continue developing tools and services to maintain or improve your global health. We will continue guiding and coaching you through each of the goals you have set for yourself. We will remain there for you and with you until all Énergie Cardio locations reopen.

Whether you are using the Énergie Cardio Virtuel application (offered free of charge until February 28, 2021, when members maintain their payment schedule) or the Énergie Cardio Entrainement application (included in your membership), you will find fitness tips and an infinite selection of workouts. You can access a certified Personal Trainer and a wide array of virtual private training services with a simple click. Additionally, we just recently created and launched a brand new virtual membership, a first in Canada and a 100% Quebecois pride: The 360°!

The 360° membership (https://www.energiecardio.com/fr/nos-offres/promotions/nouvel-abonnement-virtuel-le-360) also includes access to Santé 24/7, a telemedicine service, allowing you and your family to access health professionals in only a few clicks. Additionally to that access, The 360° includes unlimited access to both Énergie Cardio virtual platforms to optimize your path towards attaining your health and fitness goals, thus allowing you to go full circle with your lifestyle.

We can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, and we are convinced of the positive outcome of the situation and the short-term reopening of several gyms across Québec. We are strong believers in our industry and the well-being it brings to the Québec population through fitness and an active lifestyle. We are more than ready for the complete reopening of our businesses safely and in compliance with each of the Public Health guidelines.

We are really excited we get to see you soon in one of our gyms!

See you soon!



JANUARY 9TH

 

Dear Members,

Before getting in the heart of things, the Énergie Cardio family wishes you a new year filled in health and filled with discoveries! Because if there is one thing that we can still do right now, it is taking care of ourselves and the well-being of our dear ones. It is also the ideal time to try new things and discover new passions. And Énergie Cardio has loads of newness for the year 2021! Because, despite a more complex and challenging reality for all of us, we will remain relentlessly focused on our main mission, which is to help you sustain an active lifestyle to reach the goals you set for yourself when you became an Énergie Cardio member.

Our Game Plan Following Premier Legault’s Press Conference, on Wednesday, January 6, 2021.

As you are no doubt already know, Prime Minister Legault announced today that covid-related restrictions to the red zones were extended until February 8, 2021 2021. Thus, it is with great regret that we have to maintain the closures of gyms located in red zones.

Here is our game plan to maintain the focus on your fitness and well-being goals.

As in any good game plan, there is a DEFENCE portion and an OFFENCE one.

 

In DEFENCE

1. We will continue supporting you by offering virtual services completely free of charge until January February 8, 2021, 2021, to all our active members.

· An active member is a member who chose to maintain their membership’s payment schedule. Remember that when gyms reopen, we will extend your membership contract with the number of weeks corresponding to the exact number of weeks paid for during gym closures.

2. To activate your free subscription to The Virtual, until February 8, 2021, 2021, please contact us at mondossier@energiecardio.com and include your membership number and the name of your gym, or call your gym where an associate will activate this new feature. Please allow a 48 business hour delay to get access to the platform.

· If you already activated your virtual platform, you don’t have to take into account this procedure, your subscription to The VIRTUEL will be automatically extended until January February 8, 2021 2021.

3. Although we have put in a lot of effort and energy to keep you active, and we hope this will help you do just that, please note that you can suspend your membership at any time if you haven’t found the solution that suits your needs. But before making that decision, please contact us to ensure you have explored all options! Because the most important thing is your health, and you need to keep moving to keep your body, and your mind fit and balanced. And that is our specialty!



In OFFENCE!

  1. Thus, maintaining your membership active will allow you to get back all those weeks and take advantage of unlimited access to The VIRTUEL to keep working out at home, on your own or with your family! It’s time for the offence portion of the game, and discover new things! Who knows, your next passion may be more accessible and closer than you think!
  2. So, if you haven’t done so yet, don’t wait any longer and get moving using our platform, where you will find virtual workouts (100 plus) that will stimulate and help you continue your fitness journey. Whether they are pre-recorded group fitness classes (75), live-streamed ones (over 35 every week, with 20 passionate instructors) or virtual workouts, and technical clips with stimulating and highly skilled personal trainers.Discover our most recent releases; we publish new workouts and content every month! We really can help you!
  3. Don’t forget, as an Énergie Cardio member, you now have access to a great new fitness tool through the Énergie Cardio ENTRAINEMENT Application(available on the App Store). Get easy access to training programs, tracking of your progress, a training calendar, and your Personal Trainer, online (additional cost apply to virtual Private Training Sessions). Also, get recipes and connect to your favourite fitness tracking device (Polar, Fitbit, Strava, Garmin, etc.)
  4. Not motivated anymore? Need help? You need a personal trainer! Go into offensive mode and click on the link below:

As you can see, we have your back! The tools, professionals, programs, newness... Nothing will keep us from helping you find the courage and motivation to take care of yourself, your health and your dear ones! To that effect, stay tuned as on January 11 2021, we will launch a new revolutionary membership. Showing you once again that your Énergie Cardio team is working relentlessly to offer you the best guidance and experience to coach and support you in attaining your fitness and overall health goals!

See you soon!

OCTOBER 20TH 2020

Dear Members,

 

As you are no doubt already know, Prime Minister Legault announced earlier this week that Covid-related restrictions to the red zones were extended until January 11, 2021.

Thus, it is with great regret that we have to maintain the closures of gyms located in red zones.

 

Despite this challenging situation we are all going through, we remain focused on our core mission, helping thousands of Quebeckers integrate and maintain healthy life habits and have an active life!

 

Even if since the beginning of the pandemic, the government does not seem to take into consideration the primordial, essential and unique role that we play in society to maintain people in optimal health, both physically and mentally, we will continue to seek solutions to be as present and as close to you as possible, and we will continue to do everything in our power to keep you active (regardless of your tastes and fitness goals) to keep you away from hospitals and free up health care services for the benefit of the most vulnerable people. Because you are so important to us and despite the fact that government assistance is still not forthcoming for our industry, we will continue supporting you by offering our virtual services completely free of charge until January 11 to all our active members!

 

As usual, Énergie Cardio's vocation remains the supervision and support of its members, despite the turmoil that has shaken all of us since spring. When the announcement was made to close the gyms on October 5, we had decided to offer all active members free unlimited access to our brand new platform, Énergie Cardio VIRTUEL, and this until October 31, 2020; that offer was then extended until November 30. Tens of thousands of you took advantage of this offer, took the time to send us messages to thank us, and give us your feedback. THANK YOU for all your goods words! They are comforting to us and encourage us to go forward with even more determination! If you haven't already done so, do not wait any longer and visit our platform to find virtual workouts that will stimulate you and help you pursue your fitness journey. Whether with prerecorded fitness classes, streaming fitness classes, or virtual private sessions with your personal trainer, we can help you!

 

Having your health and wellbeing at heart, and wanting to ensure you can pursue your fitness goals, we are extending free access to our virtual platform until January 11 for all active members, i.e. those who are continuing their payments. Remember that when gyms reopen, we will extend your membership contract with the number of weeks corresponding to the exact number of weeks paid for during gym closures. We have put in a lot of effort and energy to keep you active, and we hope this will help you do just that; know that you can suspend your membership at any time if you haven't found the solution that suits your needs. But before making that decision, please contact us to ensure you have explored all options! Because the most important thing is your health, and you need to keep moving to keep your body and mind fit and balanced.

 

Thus, maintaining your membership active will allow you to get back all those weeks and take advantage of unlimited access to The VIRTUEL and all its inclusions:

· Unlimited access to the 100 % virtual. 100 % Quebecois platform;

· 36 live-streamed Group Fitness Classes every week with 14 new Énergie Cardio GF Instructors, all classes will be available for replay for an entire week!
