9. What are riinu coaches and how do I become one?

Becoming a riinu coach is very simple. If you have a lot of experience in any area of health or fitness and would be willing to share your knowledge you can select yourself as a coach for that topic when selecting your interests. When you become a coach, you will be notified via your dashboard that some one has a question regarding the subject you are a coach. You can opt-in to the discussions on a per question basis. Questions are not directed specifically to you from the person asking so there is no obligation to partake in any individual discussion.

10. How are winners of the riinu prizes chosen at the end of each month?

Each month we will set a point limit wich must be met to qualify. We choose this point limit based on participation from previous months. If you reach the required amount of points to be eligible, your name will be entered into a drawing for that month’s prizes. Winners are chosen at random.
