Many well-paying professional jobs are now available, both domestically & internationally! We are getting back to our travels and many Americans are motivated to travel all across the USA & worldwide.  Before COVID, foreign tourists were finding America to be a great value and this is returning quickly. Many people will not travel unless they book a tour, take a cruise, or travel with a friend who knows the destination. Travel & tourism is the world’s fastest-growing industry and relatively recession-proof. If you love to travel, earn income as a tour director. Learn about tour director salaries and work part or full-time leading tours for major companies. Travel free on a tour by becoming an “affiliate” or “tour coordinator,” putting together a group of friends to go on a trip and you go free (& possibly earn extra income). Learn how to put together your own tours and market them to friends, family, or the public, starting your own tour business. Learn the qualifications needed to be a tour guide, the “Five Easy Ways To Get A Job In the Tour Industry,” how to design excellent tours & negotiate group discounts, and “101 Ways To Promote Your Tour & Make It A Success” in this online class.  Instructor, Gina Henry, founder of Go Global, Inc., leads tours worldwide, working with major tour companies as well as operating her own tour business for 30 years.

Have you ever found that in the a.m. your waistband fits fine but by mid-afternoon, it’s squeezing you like a tourniquet? Or, no matter how many crunches you do, your stomach still hangs out? Getting rid of a potbelly is much more than just doing abdominal exercises. In this workshop, you will learn the main causes and 6 strategies for getting rid of belly bloat. We will do a few exercises designed to strengthen the deepest layer of abdominal muscle – the layer responsible for flattening your stomach, shaping your waistline, and supporting your lower back. And we will do this without getting on the floor.

Class link and handout will be sent prior to the class date.
