Is Idea a scam? I would take that star away if zero had been an option. An unidentified charge for $106 appeared on my 91 year old mother's credit card. I dialed the number on the statement and got Idea. Left many messages trying to identify what the charge was for with no response. One message mentioned an email address, so I sent an exploratory email asking what the charge was (my mom has dimentia and has no clue). Got a response asking me to send a bank statement. Seems like a scam. Still no explanation. I will be contesting the charge on behalf of my mother.

Good service Good service, lots of useful info for trainers, everything from business to CEC's and programming ideas

I don't read most of it I don't read most of it because I only teach senior pilates and yoga and I am getting closer to retirement.

IDEA provides great conferences and … IDEA provides great conferences and tools for trainers. However, I feel the organization is just beginning to embrace the importance of inclusiveness and body positivity. The cover article in the February 2018 issue of Fitness Journal is a call for change, which shows that good intentions are there; but the representative artwork and imagery focus on white women in a higher weight range. Body image is an issue for people of all sizes, not just those of higher weight. Food is demonized in the image of an articulated mannequin with a glazed donut around its middle, the message being that body size is a reflection of what is eaten, which we know to be untrue. Clearly, the editors have a long way to go toward understanding the deeper meaning and implications of body image and body positivity, for trainers and clients alike.
