Mentors are not only essential to the growth of the sport, fitness and recreation industry, they are essential to the training and development of our next generation of instructors, trainers, service teams, leaders and managers!
Every day, we are reminded and appreciative of the assistance of so many people from all around the country, who are giving up their time and energy to share their knowledge and experiences with our students specifically and the community as a whole….
