The Functional Aging Institute has been the world leader in training and educating fitness pros on how to train, why to train, and how to attract the aging clientele. This market can be as young as 50 and as old as over 100, but for many, the sweet spot is mid-50s to early 80s.  These are amazing clients that have more spending power, have more available time, and have more specific needs that most fitness professionals can help solve. They also, on average, tend to be clients for over 5 years, so learning to train them, market to them, and attract them is extremely valuable to your business.

Learn from Dr. Dan Ritchie, who has been working with this population for over 20 years and has trained over 2,500 clients through his studios, some of the secrets to success.
