Love everything about IDEA. The website is helpful with great articles, videos, and hosting some amazing conferences around the U.S.

So easy to get CEC's and there are many interesting subjects offered.

Hello, My name is Leslie Harris-Clay, and I have been attended the IDEA Health and Fitness Convention several times and loved the classes, Expo, and the opportunity to work as an assistant this past year. I would definitely recommend IDEA to any of my friends, family and people that I have met. Sincerely, Leslie Harris-Clay

I have been in the fitness industry for over 18 years. Idea is awesome! I volunteered at my first conference in Las Vegas last year and had so much fun!

Love being part of the association!

IDEA provides great conferences and tools for trainers. However, I feel the organization is just beginning to embrace the importance of inclusiveness and body positivity. The cover article in the February 2018 issue of Fitness Journal is a call for change, which shows that good intentions are there; but the representative artwork and imagery focus on white women in a higher weight range. Body image is an issue for people of all sizes, not just those of higher weight. Food is demonized in the image of an articulated mannequin with a glazed donut around its middle, the message being that body size is a reflection of what is eaten, which we know to be untrue. Clearly, the editors have a long way to go toward understanding the deeper meaning and implications of body image and body positivity, for trainers and clients alike.

Professional and superior to work with as a trainer. Knowledgeable, informative and up to date with the latest trends in the industry.

IDEA has been a reliable and trusted resource for all the years I have been in this industry. They have innovated and evolved to stay relevant. I recommend this organization to any fitness professional who wants to thrive and advance in their career.
