I felt a drive to start a business and create something new that would allow me to combine my passion for sports with my knowledge

“Get On Track was launched in March 2024. After earning my bachelor’s degree in Physical Education, I realized that my affinity for teaching wasn’t as strong as I’d initially thought. I felt a drive to start a business and create something new that would allow me to combine my passion for sports with my knowledge. That’s how Get On Track was born.

Get On Track is a mobile fitness service that offers guided outdoor group fitness classes to both individuals and companies. For companies, we aim to improve the well-being and health of all employees through sports and exercise. Thanks to our unique concept, even companies with limited space can enjoy energetic workouts, team-building activities, and fitness introductions.”

The search for individual clients

“The launch of Get On Track is going well. Even though we’ve only been operating for one month, companies are already finding their way to us. For individual clients, however, the search is still ongoing. So right now, our biggest challenge is increasing our visibility and improving our communication with this target audience.

My next milestone? I want to be running at full speed this summer! I’m really, really looking forward to summer. I’m lucky enough to have a beautiful location at the Waagnatie in Antwerp for our group classes. There are also a few summer bars there, and I’m looking forward to combining those with our workouts. Besides my passion for various sports like soccer and padel, I also enjoy sitting on terraces and making the most of every ray of sunshine.”

Lots of testing and starting early

“If I were to give tips to starting entrepreneurs, here’s what I’d say:

1. Surround yourself with other beginning entrepreneurs. They’ll understand your journey.
2. Test things out. The biggest mistake I’ve made so far is trying to optimize my business 100% without first testing it at 50%.
3. Start early. As a student, you can turn to your higher education institution with all your questions and concerns. Later on, you won’t have that option anymore, and you’ll have to figure it all out on your own!
4. Use Dexxter as an accounting tool. This is my first year using Dexxter, but I’m very impressed! The tool offers clear instructions and videos, so you can handle your VAT declarations and other tasks entirely on your own. It’s also very easy to integrate with your accounting firm.”
