Hello all,

My name is Vijay. I am a personal trainer from Calgary Alberta Canada.
My wife and I are going to make the big move to Panama this summer and start a new life. I am hoping to open up a personal trainer and bootcamp studio and basically do for work there, what I do here but in a paradise . Any suggestions welcome. Thank you for letting us join the expat community

Panamanians seem very fitness conscious. I live in David and know of three gyms, and I see people out walking, jogging, biking, etc. The expats up in Boquete have yoga, hiking, Zumba, and who knows what all else. I don't know anything about your business but it seems like a viable idea to me.
I don't know anything about what legal red tape you need to go through, but I know a good lawyer who can probably help. Www.kraemerlaw.com
Good luck!
