INTERNATIONAL FITNESS PROFESSIONALS ASSOCIATION 
 

Their Roots - The Founding of IFPA:

 

The International Fitness Professionals Association

(IFPA) was founded in 1994 by Dr. Jim and Athena Bell,

alongside Dr. Dauphinais, to redefine fitness education.

Recognizing a gap in the existing certification programs, the

founders combined their diverse expertise to author the groundbreaking book on personal training — a pivotal moment that set the stage for advanced certifications.

Their vision was clear: to provide fitness professionals with the practical tools they need to succeed in real-world scenarios. From day one, IFPA has been driven by innovation, empowerment, and a deep commitment to integrity in education.
