Operation M.U.S.I.C.
Currently there is a huge threat to the
existance of group exercise in Australia
as PPCA makes a move to increase music
tariffs (the royalty fee that is paid
for the privilege of using music in
group fitness classes). Therefore
Operation M.U.S.I.C. has been an
initiative created by Fitness Australia
to fight this proposed increase, but is
relying on funding and donations for the
cause.
The PPCA have recently won a case
against the nightclub industry and are
now currently trying to propose extreme
increases in the amount paid in
copyright fees for group fitness
classes. For more information check out
operationmusic.org.
The worrying thing about all this is
that the result in Australia could set a
precedence worldwide. If they win this
case in Australia which has a relatively
small jurisdiction, this could be a
precursor to a huge threat to group
fitness worldwide.
For this reason at groupfitness.org I am
now trying to increase awareness by
auctioning 3 Les Mills clothing items,
signed by Dan & Rach (BODYCOMBAT
choreographers) with proceeds being
donated directly to Operation M.U.S.I.C.
To check out the clothing go to
groupfitness.org and the items will be
auctioned via ebay with the auction
commencing May 1st 2008.
I would love everybody's help in
promoting this cause, so if you have
websites or blogs please feel free to
link to Operation M.U.S.I.C. and the
auction at groupfitness.org.
