Avec des parcours de carrière qui dépassent rarement les 5 ans, un turnover important, la bousculade à l'entrée des formations pour faire de cette passion son métier face à des recruteurs qui cherchent sans cesse les showmen & showwomen de demain pour animer leurs cours ou coacher leurs clients …  Y a-t-il un équilibre entre ces deux mondes qui se cherchent… ? Quels sont les points de friction et comment aborder l'avenir dans le contexte actuel ?  Quel rôle tient l'humain au cœur du fitness de demain, quelles sont les attentes des futurs coachs ? Alors que le sens au travail et la culture d'entreprise se font de plus en plus populaires, comment le secteur adapte-t-il son recrutement ?  Enfin, quels sont les points de connexion essentiels entre salles de sport, coachs et écoles de formation qui existent et ceux qui doivent être développés - à l'image de Fiind.sport qui se positionne comme le maillon manquant de la chaîne. Un épisode passionnant qui vous fera mieux comprendre les dessous de la relation entre salles de sport et coachs, les challenges et les perspectives d'avenir.

Au long de cette discussion dynamique et bienveillante, Anne Sophie, Caroline, Flora M. et Flora W. déshabillent les clichés un à un, pour montrer le visage caché de cette pratique devenue mondialement connue - et parfois déformée.  Et si finalement  "faire du Yoga", ce n'était pas simplement apprendre à prendre du temps pour soi, à se faire du bien et à vivre en accord avec ses valeurs et ses envies ? Et si, même en étant raide comme du bois, on pouvait atteindre les mêmes objectifs que ceux et celles qui se contorsionnent sur Instagram ? Et si ... on laissait à chacun.e la liberté de construire sa propre pratique et appropriation du Yoga au quotidien ?  Nos 3 invitées donnent aussi des conseils très pratiques, trucs et astuces pour démarrer. Nous vous attendons pour prolonger cette discussion sans langue de bois dans l'un des 4  studios mentionnés dans le podcast, et surtout... pour essayer VOTRE version du Yoga.

Sans transition, “aimer faire du sport, mission impossible ?”  En particulier, nous abordons les raisons qui vous font entrer dans les salles de sport, les studios, les boxs de crossfit, et les raisons qui vous en empêchent. Surtout, nous cherchons à déconstruire les clichés et parler sans filtre des prétendus sacrifices insoutenables que la société vous prie d'associer à une pratique régulière et à une vie saine. Nous essayons aussi dans cet épisode de comprendre comment les salles de sport, chacune à leur manière, contribuent à cultiver un esprit de communauté et à vous engager dans une pratique bien-être. On vous a aussi prévu nos plus belles histoires d'adhérents pour pimenter le tout ! Un épisode riche et croustillant en anecdotes et en sourires (derrière le micro) qui vous donnera on l'espère la motivation pour vous (re) mettre au sport.Animatrice - Flora Wyss | Fiind.sport Invités - Michael Veillard  | United Boxing (Renens) / Ismaël |Coach Santé (Lausanne/Vevey) / Lucile Lecocq | BEAT Fitness (Lausanne Gare)Équipe du Podcast - Luciane Chappuis | Production & Script / Niall Wiley et Nethanel Brys | Technicien de studio
