Meet Amira Polack: How Struct Club is Changing Group Fitness
Krissy Vann | Host, All Things Fitness and Wellness
On this episode of All Things Fitness and Wellness, host Krissy Vann welcomes Amira Polack, the visionary founder of Struct Club. When Amira ventured into group fitness instructing, she quickly realized that the curation of playlists and class structures was a time-consuming and self-funded endeavor. Driven by the conviction that there had to be a better way, Amira embarked on a mission to find the right tools. When no suitable software was available in the market, she decided to create it herself.
In this episode, you’ll hear the remarkable story of how Amira’s "listening tours" brought Struct Club to life. This LA-based fitness tech startup has since been downloaded in over 70 countries, aiding fitness instructors around the globe. Struct Club's debut platform is an iPhone application that helps indoor cycling instructors seamlessly integrate playlists, moves, intervals, and notes all in one place. The app transitioned from private to public beta in the App Store during its participation in Apple’s second-ever Entrepreneur Camp in Cupertino.
Amira Polack shares her journey of frustration with the analog methods of class preparation and how it led to the creation of Struct Club during her final semester at Harvard Business School. Her story is one of innovation, determination, and community. Amira and her team have built Struct Club with core values of authenticity, impact, and inclusion.
