Group fitness is undergoing a re-structuring in order to remain viable as a profession and valued by those we service. What will the updated model of the group fitness profession look like? Using the Future of Fitness A White Paper, by Les Mills Intl as a reference, and building off of our conversation with fitness expert Norma Shechtman, Penda will chat about some possible scenarios.

In 2009 Les Mills internation published The Future of Fitness A White Paper [futureoffitnesswhitepaper.com]. Authors included Suze Dale, Sue Godinet, Natalie Kearse, and Dr. Adrian Fields. In my opinion, and that is what this show is all about, this is a drop everything, must read this minute for every fitness professional. If you choose to remain clueless, you will be left without a clue to how things are already changing radically within the fitness industry. This party is really about ready to get started. Are you on board?
