IHRSA—the Health & Fitness Association, a global community of health and fitness industry leaders—has secured industry visionary Mark Mastrov as one of three keynote speakers at its IHRSA Convention & Trade Show, March 6-8, 2024, in Los Angeles.
Mark, principal at New Evolution Fitness Company, founded 24 Hour Fitness, UFC Gyms, and Crunch 2.0. He will share entrepreneurial insights, thoughts about the industry’s health, and opportunities you should grab to make your business the most successful brand in your market.
The other two keynote speakers come from outside the industry.
Mariana Atencio, award-winning journalist and best-selling author of “Perfectly You: Embracing the Power of Being Real,” will speak to how authenticity can help you secure what you desire in life, sponsored by ABC Fitness.
Pulling from his experience as a restaurateur, Will Guidara, best-selling author of “Unreasonable Hospitality,” will focus on cultivating a thriving environment and delivering beyond expectations for your members, sponsored by Matrix Fitness.
“We can’t wait for what is shaping up to be one of our best lineups of keynoters and speakers in years,” said IHRSA President & CEO Liz Clark. “And we’re seeing a lot of our industry partners already booking their space in the Trade Show for what is sure to offer fitness industry professionals plenty of opportunities to see innovations in products and services.”
