Show Notes

Fitness trends for 2026 are shifting — and constant novelty isn’t what’s driving growth anymore.

In this episode, I break down why exercise-to-music (ETM) is no longer the leading growth model in fitness, and why structured, purpose-driven movement is rising instead.

Using insights from the American College of Sports Medicine Worldwide Fitness Trends Report for 2026, we look at how beat and rhythm-based, repeatable formats support confidence, retention, and long-term participation.

If you’re a dance or fitness instructor wondering why your classes haven’t been growing, this episode explains what’s changing — and how to teach in a way that aligns with where fitness is headed next.
