Under the concept of "Bringing excitement beyond the ordinary," ZEAL Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Yuichi Watarai), which operates the boxing fitness gym "ZEAL BOXING FITNESS" nationwide, will hold a pre-event for its newly pre-launched executive community "ZEAL ATHLETIC CLUB" on Thursday, April 23, 2026. The event will take place at its first flagship store in the Kansai region, "ZEAL BOXING FITNESS Yotsubashi Kitahorie" (Nishi-ku, Osaka).
ZEAL ATHLETIC CLUB is an invite-only community where executives, board members, and business managers can network on an equal footing through sports and activities, particularly boxing. Prior to its official launch, pre-events are being held sequentially across the country, starting in Tokyo, as a place to experience the community's worldview.
Background of the Event
For executives, maintaining physical and mental conditioning and building reliable lateral connections are two wheels that support business success. However, it is often difficult for them to maintain a routine of physical activity, and there are few places where they can set aside their titles and interact candidly.
ZEAL has developed its business under the theme of "Fun and Healthy" through boxing fitness gyms nationwide. Through interactions with many executive members, the company recognized a strong need for "a place where people can naturally connect while moving their bodies." ZEAL ATHLETIC CLUB is a new initiative born from this realization.
About the Pre-Event
The pre-event will consist of an experience program where trainers will lecture on the basic movements of boxing, combined with a networking session for participants. Whether you have prior experience or not, beginners can participate with peace of mind.
Following the first pre-event held in Shibuya, Tokyo on Thursday, April 9, 2026, this Osaka event will be the second of its kind.

Message from the Representative (Yuichi Watarai, CEO of ZEAL Inc.)
When speaking with executives, I hear the desire to "exercise for health" and the desire to "meet peers I can talk to on the same level" not as separate issues, but with the same level of enthusiasm. We started ZEAL ATHLETIC CLUB with the desire to fulfill both in one place.
Boxing is a mysterious sport where, even without experience, titles are stripped away the moment you start sweating. I would be delighted if the connections born amid the sound of hitting mitts and shared laughter could serve as a catalyst to move the participants' businesses and daily decision-making forward, even just a little.
