HISTORY

In 1983, Mr. Ulf Bengtsson founded World Class International (WCI)  in Stockholm, Sweden. The first World Class clubs paved the way  for the health club industry in Sweden. Known for good equipment  and professional trainers, World Class became the name that people  associated with fitness in Sweden.  Over the next decade, the World Class brand would expand to many  different markets.

WCI concentrated its efforts on building a fitness  network, mainly the five star health academy concept. In 1988, WCI  branched out to Eastern Europe. This was a key strategic move as the  health and fitness club business was new to the region and therefore  needed a seasoned and professional operator to provide health and  wellness services. Nowadays, with state-of-the-art Health Academies  in the capital cities of the Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania  and Poland, WCI is the strongest international prime operator in Central  Europe. Today, the World Class chain has Health Academies, Fitness  Centres and Fitness Express facilities around the world.
