The powers that be at IDEA have finally released the speaker list and schedule for Blogfest and the IDEA World Fitness Convention, which is July 16-19, 2015 at the Los Angeles Convention Center! Pay attention because you will want to be there after you read this.
You may have heard that Gabrielle Reece will be the keynote speaker for Blogfest 2015, but did you know that she will also be leading a workout? That’s right, Gabby will be teaching the fitness workout she created – HighX!
In addition to High-X, there are several other options for getting your sweat on at Blogfest. Dancer Ian Waite will be teaching his class Dance Yourself Fit. On Friday you can wake up to Kaia Fit with creator Nikki Warren. And while it’s not a workout, you will get a chance to get Up Close and Personal with Zumba creator Beto Perez.
And if that’s not enough fitness for you, on Saturday and Sunday you will have exclusive access to all of the IDEA World Fitness Convention sessions, including the workouts, which include the Hollywood Trainer Ultimate Mash-up with celebrity trainer Jeanette Jenkins, Bodyshred with Jillian Michaels, Zumba, taught by it’s creator Beto Perez, plus many workshops that will include lectures and workouts. And that’s just Saturday!
Of course you come to blogging and fitness conventions for more than just workouts. You won’t be disappointed. Blogfest sessions include topics such as: How to Increase Readership and Market Your Message to the Masses; Mindblowing Blog Tips; Busting the Top 5 Nutrition Myths; Build a Following on Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter (three separate sessions); Make a Career Out of Blogging; The Future of Blogging; and SEO Tips and Tricks. Speakers include Katy Widrick, Melissa Burton, RD, Kasey Arena, Amanda Vogel, and many more. Check here for the complete schedule.
Along with your access to all of the sessions, workouts, and speakers at IDEA World on Saturday and Sunday, all Blogfest attendees also are invited to the opening ceremonies on July 16, which include keynote speaker New York Times best selling author Brendon Burchard, 2015 IDEA Jack LaLanne award recipient Jenna Wolfe, and 2015 IDEA Fitness Inspiration Award winner Anthony Robles. And you won’t want to miss the IDEA World party!
And don’t forget that the IDEA World Fitness and Nutrition Expo runs July 16-18, 11:30 to 6:30. It is one of the largest fitness expos in the world, so come prepared to network, chat, shop, and eat your way through the LA Convention Center expo hall.
Perhaps the best part of Blogfest, and one of the main reasons I will be back, is the opportunity to meet so many of the people whose blogs you have been reading for years. To finally put a voice and a face (beyond a photograph) to these women and men is priceless, and it really is what makes Blogfest such an important event to add to your schedule.

I’ll be there! Will you? What blogger would you especially like to meet?
Melanie @ Nutritious Eats
Oh man, that sounds so fun. I haven’t figured out what conferences I can attend this year. I will need to think about this one. It might not work out with our plans this summer though. 🙁
Debbie Woodruff
It’s kind of hard when it falls in the middle of vacation plans. Hope you can make it!
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table
Maybe I’ll have to look at Idea since I’ll be west coast this year!!! It looks like so much fun!
Debbie Woodruff
Yes! You’ll be so close you’ll have to come! Having the fitness convention is a huge bonus for Blogfest. So much fitness!

I hope so. We need more time 🙂
Tara @ A Dauly Dose Of Fit
I WILL BE THERE!!! Yay! Send me a packing list…what will I need?! Haha!
Debbie Woodruff
Hurray! You will need lots of workout clothes! That’s almost all because that’s really all anybody wears all day.

I love Gabby R. (not to mention Laird, you lucky gal!). It does sound wonderful…wishing it wasn’t mid-summer b/c that’s a tough time for me to get away.
Debbie Woodruff
Gosh, I hope you can somehow make it. My husband used to surf with Laird’s father back in the day (a story I’ve heard a few times (and now Laird has heard once 🙂 )).
Laura @FitMamaLove
I had so much fun last year and would love to attend this year, but I’m just not sure I can make it work. It’s so close to a week-long vacation we’ll be taking and my in laws will already be watching the kids for a whole week, so I won’t be able to ask for their help the days of the conference. I haven’t given up, though–I’d really like to go again!
Debbie Woodruff
That’s too bad, but I’ll keep my fingers crossed if there is still a chance!
Smitha @ RunningwithSDMom
My birthday does fall on that weekend…HMMM…
Jesica @rUnladylike
This looks so amazing! You have me dying to go now!!! I was lucky to meet Katy and Melissa at Fitbloggin last year. I’d love to come! xo
