Mike Alpert: How to Make Health Clubs Impactful, Profitable and Sustainable. Bridging the Gap Between Healthcare and Fitness.
Mike Alpert was the President/CEO of The Claremont Club from 1997 – 2020. Located
in Claremont, California, The Claremont Club is a full-service athletic, aquatic, tennis,
wellness and social facility encompassing 19 acres. During his time at the Club he
created a dedicated team with a sense of ownership and accountability; developed a
club culture of a passionate and value-based entity and created a focus on making a
difference in people’s lives.
Mike has served on the Northwest Athletic Club Association Board of Directors and is a
past President of the California Clubs of Distinction. He is also an Advisory Board
Member of the Medical Wellness Association. Mike is a recipient of the Richard S.
Kirkendall Award: one of only two non-educators to receive this award from the
Claremont Unified School District; The REX Roundtable Ben Franklin Award; The
Ontario/Montclair School District Stone Cutter Award and The Medical Wellness
Association Distinguished Community Service Award.
Because his passion is for the chronically injured and the chronically ill, Mike has been
presenting “Exercise is Medicine” to universities and organizations internationally
including Israel, Italy, Madrid and Ireland. He believes that now, more than ever, the
health care industry and the fitness industry must join efforts in treating and preventing the progression of disease and the effects of injury.
