Keilir Health Academy in the field of health, soundness, sports and pedagogy

Testimonies from the Sport Summit for Trainers and Coaches, Sept. 23rd – 25th, 2010

"As a physiotherapist and an educator in training and injuries, I always have to be on my toes concerning what is happening in the world of training and movement science. To do that, I need to use the internet, videos and books. Today my main projects are teenagers suffering from lack of movement and from repetitive training, which is a great problem in today‘s world, along with people which I build up after being patients. The trainer, which has had the biggest impact on how I build up my training programs, is Mike Boyle. Thanks to Keilir I have been able to attend a course with him, and other fantastic trainers, here in Iceland which I never thought possible. Apart from the courses being well organised and useful, it is priceless for me, as a person with a certain ideology in training, to have the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with those who work in the same field. It is also fantastic how extended the group of trainers is which participate in these courses and therefore there is a great opportunity to build up one‘s network in the training sector. I praise Keilir‘s team for bringing to Iceland many of the biggest names in the field of body training, whether for the general public or athletes, and by doing that they are building a path for improved body training in Iceland which, in my opinion, should have been done long time ago."

"For me as an athlete and a trainer, the Sport Summit for Trainers and Coaches have given me a big inspiration which is remarkably valuable. Apart from having a higher level of knowledge, these geniuses have the talent to make the presentations and trainings very interesting and fun. I recommend these seminars and courses for everyone and will, without a doubt, participate in the next one."

Logi Geirsson, National Handball Player, OS Silver Medallist from Beijing 2008 and IAK Personal Trainer

"These kind of courses are something nobody, working in the health and fitness sector today, should miss out on. The presentations are amazing and it is priceless to be able to participate in the courses here in Iceland with these guys which have so much experience and knowledge."

Anna Pala Magnusdottir, Physiotherapist B.Sc.

"Total success – Informative courses and loads of fun."
