Highlights from FILEX 2010 so far.

by Ryan Hogan | Saturday, May 01, 2010

Well almost 4 days have passed since the first pre-convention workshop began and all we can say is WOW! The response to all the presenters and sessions has been overwhelmingly positive and you can see smiles on peoples faces as they walk the halls of the Sydney Convention Centre.

Personal highlights for me have been innumerable but I thought I would write a few quickly before I forget:

-Bruce Sullivan, the Keynote Speaker in the opening ceremony absolutely rocked an audience of +2000 fitness professionals. The word in the street is people absolutely loved him and that it was the perfect start to a great weekend.

-Seeing the VIPR equipment in use in Hall 6 with hundreds of Personal Trainers and Instructors pushing, shoving, lifiting and lunging with this amazing new piece of resistance. If you haven't ever heard of it - I guarantee you will in the next 6 to 12 months!

-Witnessing the return of the legendary Marcus Irwin to the stage in celebration of 20 years of Step Aerobics. He presented with Stephen Parker, Min Lomo and Steve Boedt and the class absolutely ROCKED. There were +150 people stepping and grooving to the beat of some awesome tunes.

-Maureen Hagan, of Can Fit Pro and Goodlife fame affirmed her status as one of the worlds leading presenters and fitness educators. She presented a whole range of sold out sessions this weekend and everyone's response was overwhelmingly positive. Someone to definitely watch out for in the future.

I could go on and on, but there's still lots of work to be done this weekend. We will post more soon.
