FITNESS FACILITIES RAVE ABOUT HOSTING NETA WORKSHOPS

Discover the power of your facility with NETA’s weekend workshops!

You offer the space, and we deliver top-tier, hands-on training from the industry’s leading exercise professionals. Our presenters are highly qualified and committed to advancing fitness education. Plus, we offer two hosting options, giving you the flexibility to select what suits your facility and staff best. Hosting has never been this convenient or customizable!

Option 1

For a minimum investment, bring the power of live, in-person education right to your doorstep.

The hosting fee includes up to 6 registrations for each workshop. Additional registrations are offered at a substantial discount.

With Option 1, the workshop is guaranteed to take place regardless of the registration number.

Option 2

With this option, you still provide the space, choose the workshop format, and help us promote the workshop, but there is no upfront fee.

This option may work better for a facility that has fewer than 6 people from their staff attending the workshop and more external attendees.

With Option 2, the workshop takes place only if there are enough registrations.
