The Cooper Institute |
Cooper Purpose and Core Values |
Founded in 1970, The Cooper Institute 501(c)(3) was the first entity established by Kenneth H. Cooper, MD, MPH.
Located at the world-renowned Cooper Aerobics Center in Dallas, The Cooper Institute nonprofit is dedicated worldwide to health research and education. Nearly 50 years ago, Dr. Cooper had the foresight to establish The Cooper Institute and develop a rich repository of health-related data. He wanted to base his work on scientific legitimacy, not "faddism." Since then, it has been the foundation upon which Dr. Cooper built the other six health and wellness entities. Today, the Cooper Center Longitudinal Study is one of the most highly-referenced databases on physical fitness and health in the world. Armed with this data, The Cooper Institute works to make healthy choices easier through credible research, effective learning programs and an influential network of partners. |
The Cooper Purpose is to improve the quality and quantity of life. Since being partnered with Cooper we adhere to their core values and purpose in efforts to improve the quality and quantity of life for our members here at the Downtown Athletic Club.
