To our WellSet Community,
I want to personally thank you for coming along with us through WellSet’s evolution since we founded the company in 2018. I recognize that it’s been a challenging time for each and every one of us as we navigate our health and wellbeing in what feels like an increasingly stressful world—and I applaud you for prioritizing your own emotional health and self-care.
During this exciting moment of transition, I’d like to celebrate where we have been, as well as paint a picture of the future of WellSet and invite you to join us as we step into a bold new chapter.
We founded WellSet in 2018 with the mission of increasing access to holistic health. We define holistic health as going beyond the physical body to consider how our thoughts, emotions, and even our sense of purpose collectively impact our health and wellbeing as a whole. It’s a state of internal balance that reflects the interactions we have with our environments–from our inner thoughts and beliefs, to the foods we eat, the way we move, and our social relationships.
With our mission to make holistic health accessible to all, we knew we needed to enhance our offering and make it more affordable.
In 2020, we launched a marketplace to match holistic practitioners with wellness seekers for 1-1 sessions. More than 20,000 holistic health practitioners applied before the marketplace was ultimately acquired by Ness earlier this year.
We learned a lot during this period—namely that individual wellness sessions were cost prohibitive for many of you. With our mission to make holistic health accessible to all, we knew we needed to enhance our offering and make it more affordable.
We heeded that call by building a digital group class platform in 2021, hosting nearly 13,000 classes—many of which we offered for free. These classes provided much needed support to our community during anxiety-provoking times–you signed up for group classes 100,000+ times! More importantly, these classes helped you feel better. 90% of WellSetters we surveyed reported feeling calmer and less anxious after class.
Fast forward to today. We’re ramping up to launch our bespoke holistic health platform and membership. We’re thrilled to introduce you to WellSet: the first digital holistic health studio! Get your daily dose of mind, body & emotional self-care.
WellSet membership will give you access to transformational classes in 20+ holistic practices so you can feel like your best self. Our goal is for membership to accessible, inclusive and affordable for everyone.
WellSet members will have access to hundreds of live-streamed and on-demand group classes taught by leading experts in holistic health. Our digital studio offers classes in more than 20 holistic therapies such as yoga, hypnotherapy, tapping, and acupressure. WellSet classes address anxiety and burnout, improve sleep, reduce inflammation, help you find balance—or just help you feel better.
WellSet membership will give you access to daily, transformational holistic self-care classes to support your mind-body-emotional health.
We have big aspirations for WellSet. Our mission is to increase access to holistic healthcare for millions of people around the world to improve physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing—a mission more crucial than ever. We know stress is at the root of most chronic disease and illness. Our aim is to reduce stress, helping you transform your thoughts, emotions and daily habits so you can feel resilient and healthy. When we take care of ourselves and fill our cups, we create space and energy to focus on what matters to us most, whether that’s work, family, or simply peace of mind. Small steps become leaps as we transform our wellbeing one day at a time.
In service of our goal of bringing WellSet to every household, we’re partnering with major insurance providers and employers to bring down the cost of membership and increase access even further. Our intention is to prove that WellSet’s membership significantly reduces clinical anxiety levels to garner widespread support and adoption by the healthcare industry. More to come on that front soon!
It’s worth reaffirming: Our team has immense gratitude for your energy, engagement, support and feedback over the past few years. We hope you’ll join us in our WellSet Membership. It’s truly just the beginning.
We are offering an exclusive, limited-time Founding Membership offer to our community, which we’ll be announcing in the coming weeks (so keep an eye on your inbox!). In the meantime, take a look at our new branding and get a sneak peek of our upcoming product launch.
Hope to see you in class soon.
Be well,
Tegan Bukowski, Co-founder and CEO of WellSet
