Winter’s coming… so let’s plan!
In my home town of Toronto in Canada, Winter means something very different than it does Down Under. It means
unpacking the mittens, boots and touques (pom pom hats) as we reacclimatise to sub-zero temperatures and lots of
snow. In the fitness industry it means clubs, studios and classes are full as outdoor workouts remain only for the brave
hearted (or foolhardy…)
In the Australian fitness industry, and at Network, the change isn’t as extreme, but things are a bit different at
this time of year. With FILEX done and dusted and the financial year coming to an end, it’s time to evaluate, plan and
prepare. At Network HQ we are working on a number of new initiatives that you can expect to see rolled out over the
coming months:
Network LIVE/QFit/WAFIC
Leadership, coaching and
mentoring
In partnership with our good friends at
Melbourne-based Fire Up Coaching,
we are incredibly excited to bring
to the fitness industry the very first
Diploma in Leadership, Coaching and
Mentoring. The skills you’ll learn in this
life-changing Diploma will enable you
to confidently and positively impact
all areas of people’s lives – whether
you’re a personal trainer, fitness
instructor or member of the club
management team. Our first Diploma
course starts in September 2015 in
Sydney and Melbourne. Find out more

Stay warm, stay fit!

Over the past two years we have
worked hard to grow our suite of live
events from one – being FILEX – to
four, catering to the entire Eastern
Seaboard and Perth in Western
Australia. For our regional events,
including WAFIC in Perth (12-13
September), the recently acquired
QFIT in Brisbane (24-25 October)
and Network LIVE in Sydney (1718 October), we have sourced the
best presenters in Australia to
compile an accessible and exciting
program. For more information visit

Network Membership
Finally, behind the scenes we
are working on a revamp of our
Membership services department
to assess what exactly it looks like
to be a Network Member in this day
and age. In the coming months we
will be looking for your feedback
on
what
direction
Network
Membership should take, with
the purpose of shaping the future
of your career. If you have any
immediate thoughts or feedback
on the future of your Network
Membership, feel free to contact
