Press Release Improving health with music lessons from Matchspace Music in cooperation with enjoy365

Updated: Sep 26, 2022

Making music improves one’s well-being and health. Therefore, Matchspace Music, the innovative Swiss platform for individual music lessons, has joined forces with enjoy365, the platform provided by CSS Insurances, to offer discounted music lessons for customers of enjoy365.ch.

Well-being and music both go hand in hand

Studies conducted by Health Promotion Switzerland have shown that one in four employees in Switzerland suffers from stress. As a result, employers are faced with annual costs of around 6.5 billion Swiss francs. Due to the Corona pandemic, the focus on mental health has increased and a growing number of companies are addressing the issue of occupational health management (OHM). Very often, specific approaches on how to sustainably promote people’s mental well-being are not available. Here, Matchspace Music comes into play. :

According to national and international studies, the majority of adults would like to make music, but fail to do so due to a variety of reasons. Among the reasons often cited are busy schedules, limited flexibility regarding lessons, a lack of choice in teachers, or not being confident in one’s own talent to play an instrument. Furthermore, taking private music lessons taught by a qualified teacher poses a financial challenge for many.

Making music brings along many benefits and has a positive effect on a person’s body, brain, mind, and spirit. It is good for one’s health, develops children's intelligence, and increases mental fitness in old age. By adding this music service to its portfolio, enjoy365.ch contributes significantly to health promotion and supports Matchspace Music in realizing its vision: to make music-making accessible to as many people as possible.

enjoy365.ch provides attractive offers related to physical and mental health, addressing additional insurants of CSS. According to Patrick Koller, founder of Matchspace Music, “enjoy365.ch offers its users the opportunity to save up to 50 percent, thus, facilitating their entry into music-making significantly while contributing to the mental health of people in search of a solution to balance their everyday life.”

During a pilot phase, Matchspace Music and enjoy365.ch are offering the service at half the price to all registered customers of enjoy365. Receive discounted music lessons for any of the 45 instruments taught by over 300 qualified Matchspace Music teachers throughout Switzerland.
