EPEC is an award winning standards-based physical education curriculum for grades K-12 which is built around the NASPE (National Association for Sport and Physical Education) learning standards.

Bonnie's Fitware Inc. was founded by Dr. Bonnie Mohnsen, and is a leader in providing the physical education profession with state of the art technological instructional solutions and standards based physical education curriculum.

"The decision to assume distribution of the Bonnie's Fitware products was based on our fundamental commitment to ensure quality standards-based physical education for the nation's youth. We believe that the best way to address the child obesity problem is to physically educate our youth, which will lead to ahealthier nation," said Dr. Glenna DeJong, EPEC's vice president of educational programs.  "Bonnie's products compliment and reinforce our EPEC products and will serve to assist us in meeting the needs of the physical education community."

EPEC will integrate the Bonnie's Fitware products into its marketing and sales efforts and be prepared to fulfill orders for the 2009-2010 school year.  Bonnie's Fitware Inc. will continue to offer selected resource products, on-line instructional learning and conduct professional workshops.  The organizations have also agreed to co-promote both the EPEC and Bonnie's Fitware product offerings.

Dr. Mohnsen is a nationally acclaimed author in the areas of physical education and technology, and has conducted hundreds of workshops on the use of technology in effective physical education instruction.

"EPEC has become the leader in the physical education community in providing standards-based physical education.  Their marketing and sales efforts have proven both effective and impressive, " Dr. Mohnsen said.  "This alliance will allow me to concentrate my efforts on the development of new products in the area of technology and on-line instructional resources, while being assured that our current products will be effectively offered to the physical education community."

In 2002, EPEC received the award for Excellence in Prevention Research and Research Translation in Chronic Disease from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).  Research done in 2005 by the CDC reported that students who were taught with EPEC increased their skills in the measured motor skills over students taught using other curricula.  In addition, students taught with EPEC showed more knowledge of physical activity and greater motor-skill self-efficacy.
