The timing could not have been better as we have recently announced our new membership offerings, which can be found at ihrsa.org\/membership. We are also looking forward to working with Sara and the whole SCW team on the three SCW Mania events this fall.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>The Health and Fitness Business Summit is a unique business track offered at each of SCW\u2019s seven, regional MANIA Conferences.

IHRSA provides an international showcase of education and SCW is proud to be named the regional partner, reaching facilities that might be unable to travel to international events at this time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>DEERFIELD, IL<\/strong> and <strong>BOSTON, MA<\/strong> &#8211; CW Fitness Education, a leading provider of continuing education for fitness professionals, and IHRSA, the global health and fitness association, announce a strategic partnership for 2021.
