    Have a Hecla of a Good Time- In Person Fitness Conference 

    We started the Made in Manitoba Conference 20 plus years ago with the purpose of creating space to use only local presenters and for fitness professionals to come together and share ideas, inspire one another, and to connect. In the years since we’ve had many successful events, they’ve all been fulfilling, If you have never been to it, you are missing out on some fantastic networking and knowledge sharing.

    This conference offers a unique combination of being both a learning weekend and a retreat to help you rest, and reconnect.

    We try to create a program with something for everyone. Come out, learn something and enjoy the experience!

    It’s said that one of the secrets to happiness is always having something to look forward to, and we are  looking forward to being together with all of you. It brings us such joy to share the Made in Manitoba 2024: Have a Hecla of a good time.
