Les Mills, Zumba® and Life Fitness have signed on as Presenting Sponsors of the inaugural event that will be held at the ASB Showgrounds, Greenlane, Auckland from Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th July.

Over 70 leading brands will showcase their latest product advancements and exciting fitness trends across the following sectors: consumer and commercial gym equipment, gym facilities, sports supplementation, personal and group fitness programs, training aids and accessories, performance sports apparel, workout wear, professional services, career opportunities and more.

The event will include live performances, demonstrations and The Raechelle Chase Fitness Model Search on the Fitness Stage, educational presentations on a broad range of topics within the Fitness Life Seminar Theatre, International Fitness Celebrity Appearances, three Fitness Studios featuring free workout classes by leading brands, opportunities to trial and purchase the latest sports supplementation products, the Industrial Athletic CrossFit Invitational (Saturday only), The NZ Fitness Expo Strongman Championship powered by BSN (Sunday only), and visitor fitness challenges.

Event Director Michael Richardson explains "the interest in personal fitness is huge right now as consumers become more aware of the benefits and range of options open to them. The event's participating partners are proactively responding to those needs by keeping consumers and industry professionals up to date with the latest trends and products available."

An increase in personal trainers, a range of gyms, nutrition experts, fitness and training studios, boot camps and a diverse range of classes including Zumba®, Les Mills, Pole Fitness, Yoga, Pilates, CrossFit and Martial Arts are all proof the fitness industry is very healthy and the options for consumers are continually improving and growing.

Richardson adds "this ongoing trend opens up some great opportunities for health and fitness professionals, which in turn creates an exciting and competitive business environment for product and service suppliers in the industry."

And the 2012 NZ Fitness Expo will pull it all together in one big event, set to become an icon in the NZ fitness industry with much to offer for those interested in fitness, performance, training and nutrition both personally and professionally.

The event has a Facebook community and can be followed on Twitter for updates.
