A New Way to Learn with MFC in 2026!

This year, we’re switching things up!

Instead of our traditional conference format, the Manitoba Fitness Council is offering a series of in-person workshops, certificate sessions and webinars throughout the coming months.

Our goal is to provide more opportunities, more flexibility and greater access to continuing education for fitness professionals across Manitoba.

Rather than trying to fit everything into one busy conference weekend, we’re spreading our education opportunities throughout the year so you can choose the sessions that work best for you.

Each session will have its own registration link, allowing you to register only for the workshops and webinars that interest you.

Our First In-Person Weekend

8-Hour Immersive Yin Yoga Workshop

We’re kicking off our new education series with an 8-hour Yin Yoga Workshop on Saturday, October 24.

And This Is Just the Beginning!

Over the next several months, we’ll be adding more in-person certificate workshops and a number of webinars.

This new format allows us to offer education throughout the year and gives you the flexibility to participate when and where it works for you.

Keep watching for registration information, new session announcements and webinar opportunities.

More learning. More choices. More opportunities to connect.

MFC is bringing education to you throughout the year!

See you soon!
