WeightWatchers (WW) has announced it is reversing its decision to close in-person workshops across Australia and New Zealand. The Herald reported last week that the health and fitness giant was ending face-to-face sessions for its Aussie and Kiwi members , as per a website statement and email to members informing them of the closure. This week a WW spokesperson confirmed to the Herald the closure would no longer go ahead after feedback from its members and coaching staff.
“We have officially made the decision to reverse the closure and are therefore reinstating the majority of in-person workshops in the ANZ (Australia and NZ) region,” they said. “Following a strategic reassessment of our decision to close in-person workshops within this market, we’re happy to have found a path forward which will retain the majority of our workshops. We believe this updated strategy is the right one - and in the best interest of both our members and our company.
