Office chairs don’t usually have movies made about them, at least not one that is endorsed by a fitness professional. Yet, that’s exactly what inspired Jason “Coach J” Inglis when he came across a photo of an office chair featured in one of WSG’s instagram posts.
Coach J, who owns the popular Coach J Fitness Studio in Vaughan, is a stickler for form and function. Having proper spinal alignment and correct body positioning is something he preaches to clients who flock to his studio. Except for the past few months, when Coach J had to pivot his in-person fitness business to one offering online classes via the Zoom video conferencing platform and on Instagram Live.
Office Chairs = Workout
”Knowing that people often have limited resources at home, you have to pivot in your thinking very quickly,” says Coach J. “In the studio we have various pieces of equipment our clients can use to ensure correct alignment when doing certain exercises. Some clients have home gyms, some have weights at home; but, everyone has a chair.
“Not only is a chair useful during many of our exercise routines, but especially afterwards, when you want to ensure you have great posture and comfort all day long.”
“If I loved it, my clients would too”
Coach J wasted no time in contacting WSG, and we wasted no time in ensuring curb side delivery of the office chair. He was quickly impressed with the features offered on great looking, budget sensitive chair.

Also, the colour – I love colour that pops; and the green mesh back absolutely does!
Inspiration Struck!
”It’s not often a client is so happy they want to make a movie,” says Mitchell Cohen, Dealer Principal, WSG. “We pride ourselves on our customer service – before, during and after the sale – it’s just what we’re about. But, this is just next level!”
Quick Pivot
During this unprecedented time, many of WSG’s main manufacturers were required to either shut down their factories, or work at half capacity. As a contract furniture dealer, they were inundated with calls from clients and business partners who were desperate for comfortable office chairs they could have at home.
“We needed to do a quick pivot for our clients by locally sourcing a chair that would meet our standards and our clients’ budget,” says Mitchell Cohen.
How to Get Your Office Chair
With most of WSG’s furniture manufacturers moving back into 100% capacity, they are able to offer a full complement of home/office chair seating. Contact them directly and an Account Manager will be in touch within 24 hours.
