02:33:31

02:42:15
canfitpro as well.

02:44:03
Love, love, love this intel!

02:45:36
Such good intel!

02:47:24
9 round

02:47:36
It is amazing!! :)

02:49:23
and with small group training you can charge extra for the more personalized experience. Revenue!

02:49:49
music, now that’s fascinating to study!

03:01:12
Sara - Have you seen the demographics of who attends SCW change over the years?

03:01:33
Great question!

03:02:04
Allison I will be sure to ask your question!

03:07:50
Our current most attended classes are the express classes!

03:08:00
"Love the weirdos!"

03:11:09
PHIT would cover any prevention costs...classes, programs, little league fees - not just club membership. It would exclude tennis shoes and equipment

03:13:46
Haha brolates!

03:24:07
thanks for sharing this PowerPoint with us!

03:25:06
the next big thing will be brain fitness as the aging population

03:25:30
struggles with dealing with Alzheimer’s

03:25:53
we need a certification on fitness and Alzheimer’s.

03:27:00
How is instructor compensation evolving? What is trending for health clubs?

03:28:18
active agers is not Alzheimer’s

03:28:34
we need to address this it’s huge

03:29:41
Any ideas for clubs/studios on recruiting instructors? I love that the average age of SCW attendees have grown though I worry about the next group of industry professionals

03:30:12
I believe that the way Group Fitness instructors is being paid is changing and is "performance based" (based on how they fill their classes).

03:30:17
Pay for Performance

03:30:54
I wish to thank you. I must run!

03:31:10
Glad to see so many fabulous women on this webinar!

03:31:16
Our trainers have moved to performance based incentive but our group fitness payscale hasn't not gotten there yet.

03:33:47
I would love to send canfitpro members to a WIFA job board!

03:34:42
For a university setting we teach a Group Fitness instructor training course. We cover step, kickboxing, core, strength, cycle, yoga , pilates and water. Should we stop training step?

03:35:48
i wish was case, but not the facilities around me - all the big boxes and gyms here in DC metro area have set rate. Unless you are at a boutique it is rare to find a commission based group x class

03:36:11
not many clubs know how to pay instructors in their systems that way (if they don’t have mind body)

03:36:15
Thats how I run my studio: base pay and bonuses based on number of people in classes

03:37:14
Thank you so much for this information. It was EXTREMELY helpful and useful!

03:37:16
Excellent to hear that opportunities can be shared via a WIFA platform!

03:45:52
