Will there be an IDEA World Club & Studio Summit

IDEA World Club & Studio Summit will not be a standalone event in 2025. Club & Studio sessions will be a track on the IDEA World Convention program that is open to all paid attendees. If you are a Club & Studio owner or manager interested in attending, please register as an IDEA World attendee, and select the sessions within the Club & Studio track. In addition, there will be a Club & Studio pre-event intensive geared toward Club & Studio owners.

Will there be educational sessions on Sunday July 20?

IDEA World has generally had a half-day of programming on Sunday, but over the years, we've found that fewer than half of our attendees typically stay for the final two sessions. As a result, we made the decision to eliminate Sunday from the program, while still offering over 20 CEC hours over the course of the other three days. We understand this may initially seem like you’re receiving less for a similar price, but we’ve worked hard to keep IDEA World cost-effective for our entire community.

Will there be pre-convention sessions on Wednesday July 16?

Can people bring in their own equipment to use/demonstrate in sessions when working out?

What should I bring?

Once on-site, you will want to make sure you have your registration confirmation, picture ID, a printed copy of session handouts, water (bring a bottle and refill it at the water stations), snacks, a sweatshirt (sometimes the rooms get a little cool, especially after some exercise), a yoga mat (for mind/body sessions), a notepad and a pen or pencil and business cards for networking.

Are there places to change and/or shower between classes?

Generally, you’ll receive one CEC per contact hour for workshops and lectures. If you attend a 2-hour workshop, you’ll receive up to 2 credit hours. We are in the process of getting approvals from each of the agencies above and will post the credits as soon as they are available. That way you’ll know exactly how many credits the sessions you are interested in attending are approved for.

What is your policy on service animals?

If you require an Emotion Support Animal (ESA) please contact IDEA prior to arriving to the event. IDEA will require current documentation (not more than one year old) on letterhead from a licensed mental health professional stating (1) the attendee has a mental health-related disability listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM IV); (2) having the animal accompany the attendee is necessary to the attendee’s mental health or treatment; (3) the individual providing the assessment of the attendee is a licensed mental health professional and the attendee is under his/her professional care; and (4) the date and type of the mental health professional’s license and the state or other jurisdiction in which it was issued. This documentation may be required as a condition of permitting ESA’s to accompany attendees. Under the Americans With Disabilities Act, ESA’s are not given the same rights and exemptions as Service Animals and approval of ESA’s in public areas and businesses are at the discretion of those entities. If prior approval is not given by IDEA, attendees will be asked to remove the ESA from the event.

What is the IDEA Cancellation Policy?

Cancellations on or before June 17, 2025 will be refunded in full (less a $100 processing fee) or a full credit issued to your IDEA account. Cancellations received after June 17, 2025 will be issued an open credit, in the full amount of your purchase that can be used toward a future IDEA event. Open credits issued will expire on December 31 of the following calendar year. 

*IDEA membership fees purchased as part of a bundle package are non-refundable.
