👋👋 Hi!!! We'll be presenting Friday, March 20 from 11:10 - 11:30 a.m. "Discover PE's Future with IHT's Spirit Heart Rate Monitor!" Location: Demo Playground Definitely attend our demo or feel free to swing by our booth # 907 anytime! Our heart rate monitors are loved by Adapted PE teachers because our monitors give their students confidence to work out while providing APE teachers with peace of mind knowing they're able to keep their students safe by monitoring their heart rates. Here's a recent blog post about APE use: ihtusa.com/iht-blog/adapt… We hope to see you at the demo and our booth! Hope you have fun at the conference!
