BOSTON, MA – IHRSA’s advocacy efforts are routed in the twin goals of protecting and promoting the health club industry. While you may prefer less government involvement in the club industry, the reality is, your state and national government introduce policies that could have a significant impact—for better or worse—on your business. One of IHRSA’s jobs is to maximize the good, while minimizing the bad.

Accomplishing these goals involves:

  • Direct advocacy at the federal, state, and local levels;
  • Bringing the voices and interests of the industry (club operators, club members, and fitness consumers) directly to elected officials;
  • Coalition building to increase our voice, extend our reach, and promote the industry’s impact on health, happiness, and prosperity;
  • Shaping public opinion to ensure that health clubs are highly regarded resources for physical activity and wellness.

As a busy club operator, there are a lot of demands on your time. That is why this report has been created to provide you with a brief overview that explains the threats and opportunities your business faces. So, dig in with the knowledge that we have your back, and contact IHRSA if you have any questions.
