It's your industry take control

The Fitness Industry Association is a non-profit trade association representing the entire health and fitness sector.

Now in our 10th year and with over 1500 members, the FIA promotes excellence and best practice within the industry, whilst facilitating its growth and development by increasing awareness and guiding the public to improved wellbeing.

The FIA Code of Practice is a set of performance standards for FIA member clubs, offering assurance and confidence to the public and relevant authorities. Over 90% of FIA member clubs are currently compliant to the Code of Practice.
