Our History
Engenharia do Corpo
Engenharia do Corpo was founded in 2012, based on the extensive experience of its founding partners Alexandre and Diego Zanella. The academy has a totally professional management, wide physical structure and various modalities. Based on the low price business model meaning “low price”, the customer pays a relatively low amount for a mega structure, with quality equipment, ample spaces, changing rooms and parking within a basic service plan. Understanding the moment we are living, our great differential and what becomes pioneering in our market is the ease of hiring our services via bank slip. We are people who think of people and want to opportunistize a healthy lifestyle. In addition to the basic packages, we offer additional services to customers providing a better quality of life, health and well-being.
Already elevated to the condition of one of the largest networks of academies in Brazil, The Engineering Body has more than 100 units in operation and, with the results presented so far, it is estimated the inauguration of 5 to 10 units per month by the end of the year.
