Whether you work with your clients one-on one or in a group setting, this course is going to change the way you think about program design. This new set of workshops will revolutionize your training program.
Our fast-paced, high-energy program consists of four two-hour courses and is structured to prepare you to design and implement your own age-appropriate senior fitness programs. You'll learn how to design individualized training programs for both individuals and groups and you'll learn the newest trends, the most imaginative modifications and the most highly functional strength and conditioning activities -- all suitable for your older clients.

Unfortunately, no. "Certification" is a legal term and "certifications" requires a proctored, objective examination to earn the credential and continuing education to maintain the credential. Our live programs do not require an examination so no "certification" is rewarded. But many of our participants have found that our Specialty Certificates are very valuable marketing tools which document that you have specialized training in a concentrated area of fitness.
At the end of the day, after you have completed all 4 of our live classes, you will receive access to a special page on our website.

Then, simply print out your personalized "Biomechanics & Performance Specialist" certificate. That's it!
