Fitness Business Asia Podcast


Feb 24, 2020

Jack talks to John Holsinger, Director of Asia Pacific for IHRSA, about how Asia’s fitness industry has evolved in the last few decades and where it’s heading. 

John has been immersed in Asia’s fitness scene since the 80s so it was great to get his insights and thoughts. Next week, we delve into China’s industry.

In today’s show we cover...

  1. Where it all started: hotel gyms, then the first big chain
  2. How boutiques and franchising found their way into the market
  3. How, in Asia, we’ve started to benchmark ourselves against other industries or regions
  4. Competing on price is a race to the bottom
  5. How hotels, spas/wellness and corporate are on an upward trajectory
  6. Trends and stats - and what’s next for Asia
