BALANCING WORK & HEALTH

Established in 1992, the Portland State Office Building (PSOB) Wellness Center is a low-cost facility where members can go to exercise, stretch, practice yoga or lift weights. The Wellness Center is located on the 8th floor and provides a welcome opportunity to add some light exercise or a full workout without leaving the building. Members can engage in physical activity individually or in groups.

Anyone who is a PSOB tenant employee or VISTA member — whether permanent, temporary or contractor — is eligible for membership. Members do not have to be stationed at PSOB as long as their employer is a PSOB tenant. We welcome all individuals to the PSOB Wellness Center including those who are transgender, gender expansive, gender non-binary, and Two Spirit. Individuals may select the locker room in accordance with their gender. A single-occupancy restroom is also available on the first floor of PSOB. For more information, visit How It Works. 

The Wellness Center is governed as member-run, tax-exempt fitness facility. The Wellness Center operates on a minimal budget, and all equipment and services are purchased with membership dues. This is truly the members' Wellness Center!

Check out the Group Exercise page for current schedule, group exercise descriptions, and group leader bios. We offer these exercise opportunities because the presence of other members can motivate us to keep showing up and because exercising together is fun!

We invite you to visit the Contact Us page and email any Board member with your ideas for the Wellness Center or website. 

The Wellness Center is closed from 9:00-10:30 am Monday-Friday for maintenance and sanitation.
