Network Community For the team at Australian Fitness Network, our calendar begins and ends every year with FILEX. This year is no different – although we are embracing a few other changes! In fact, 2014 marks two major milestones in the history of our business and of FILEX, the fitness industry convention. As you are probably aware by now, for the first time in its history FILEX is moving to Melbourne. We are absolutely thrilled to be bringing our jam-packed weekend of fitness edu- tainment to Victoria and this year’s event promises to be a big one! Featuring more international presenters, a wider range of session topics and bigger and better entertainment than ever before, we truly believe that the 2014 event is one not to be missed. But don’t just take my word for it – check out the full program at www.filex.com.au and you’ll see for yourself! In addition to the move to Melbourne, FILEX is also celebrating its 20th anniversary! To help us mark the occasion, our friends and colleagues from canfitpro Toronto are making the journey down under to deliver some awe-inspiring presentations and, of course, join in the party. FILEX has, without doubt, become a mainstay of both the Australian and international fitness scene, and we would love you to join us in celebrating how far it’s come over the past two decades. Finally, you won’t want to miss Network’s executive director Nigel Champion’s address at the opening ceremonies at FILEX, during which he will be announcing the launch of two exciting new opportunities for you, our members. Unfortunately I’m not as yet at liberty to disclose what these are, so to be the first in the know, make sure you are there! I look forward to catching up with many of you from 4 to 6 April, in Melbourne. Regards, Ryan Hogan, CEO [email protected] P.S.
