“We are enhancing our business partner cooperations by adding another attractive offer. In our contemporary world, health, fitness and lifestyle are major topics for working persons in general and thus also for the employees of our member airlines. Those with a good work-life-balance are more motivated, more efficient and more fit. In this respect, Elements commands a broad and high-quality portfolio,” Barig secretary general Michael Hoppe explains. “I am looking forward to the offers the company will present to our more than 100 member airlines.”

The studios offer their members and guests multiple ways of achieving their sporting goals, relaxing as well as increasing overall health and fitness. Various training and workout programs can be chosen from and relaxation is found in the saunas or during professional massages. It also provides nutrition counselling and nutrition courses.
