About Studio 9-to-5
We are putting wellness to work and inspiring Life Balance as a way of being.
“We achieve positive results by bringing high-quality wellness programs directly to the places where people spend most of their time—workplaces, schools, residential communities, and event venues.”
Our Story
Studio 9-to-5 was born from a simple yet powerful observation: while traditional fitness studios offered excellent programs, they weren't meeting people where they actually spent most of their time—at work, at home, in schools, at event venues, or in residential communities.
Founded in 2013 by Nikki Peters and an investor of CorePower Yoga, Studio 9-to-5 set out to solve the complex web of challenges that prevent people from prioritizing wellness: work demands, family obligations, time constraints, cost barriers, the hectic pace of modern-life, and the intimidation many feel when approaching fitness activities.
What began as a mission to bring yoga into workplace environments has evolved into a comprehensive wellness solution serving diverse communities across the world. With a network of wellness experts located across the USA and overseas, we are uniquely positioned to serve some of the largest most respected organizations.
Our journey has been driven by a deeper purpose: creating connection through wellbeing. We believe that when people feel their best physically and mentally, they build stronger connections—with themselves, with others, and with their communities. This enhances company culture, improves team dynamics, and creates ripple effects of wellbeing that extend far beyond the workplace.
As we've evolved, we've expanded our offerings to include leadership and development trainings that foster mindful leaders and strengthen people. We've also seen how our workplace wellness programs have become valued employee perks and integral components of Employee Assistance Programs (EAP), providing comprehensive mental health and physical wellbeing support alongside traditional benefits.
