Group Fitness For All Bodies
CanFitPro
Session 2122
63% of the Canadian population exists in larger bodies. (74% in the US). Are we programming and cueing our group fitness classes to make the workout accessible for all bodies? If our goal is to reach more people we need to take a look at programming, our spaces, and our coaching in order to do no harm and create inclusivity in the fitness industry.
