Whether you are a personal trainer who inspires clients to move more effectively, a group fitness instructor encouraging students to move with joy or a coach guiding others to move toward healthier choices, your success relies on three elements: KNOWLEDGE, INSPIRATION AND COMMUNITY. That’s what you’ll find at IDEA World. This isn’t just a 4-day educational event—it’s a celebration of movement that’s designed to give you what you need to inspire your world to fitness.
