Functional Aging for Seniors

An age-positive approach to senior fitness!

The “Functional Aging for Seniors” Program
What exactly is “Functional Aging”?

Totally reimagined for 2023, this 1-day program uses an evidence-based approach to artfully combine the latest research with the most current trends in senior fitness. Today’s seniors have the expectation of remaining vibrant, functional and active well into old age, and this series of workshops is designed to keep clients age 65 and older fit, active, functional and independent.

What You’ll Learn

All seniors share the same fitness goal: They want to maintain their independence for as long as they possibly can, and this includes maintaining their home and taking care of their own needs. Our “Functional Aging” program focuses on the specific “Activities of Daily Living” that your client needs to allow them to age-in-place. In addition, you’ll learn innovative core training and balance drills that will allow your clients to not just maintain function, but to socialize, travel and enjoy recreational activities.

You’ll learn sustainable, age-appropriate exercise techniques that can be done anywhere: A gym or fitness center, a converted garage or basement or a community center. Learn how to focus on enjoying the “process” as well as showing “progress” for an exercise program that will keep your seniors coming back! Our new set of workshops will revolutionize your training program!

The Modules

This 8-hour workshop consists of four brand-new, 2-hour modules, all offering brand new CE awards!

Here are the four new classes we're offering:
1) Function Rebuilt: Instructing Pulls, Rows & Curls
2) Function Recovered: Teaching Rotations & Deadlifts
3) Function Reclaimed: Training Squats & Lunges
4) Function Restored: Coaching Pushes, Presses & Dips

The Learning Environment

Classroom training has never been so immersive! Using our signature combination of instructor demonstrations and participant interaction, every exercise is enhanced by crisp, clear videos. Better yet, each video has a specific QR code so you can review, save or share each video long after class is over.

Get the Recognition You Deserve!

You’ve worked hard to advance your career so why not let that hard work can pay off? Take all 4 of our "Functional Aging for Seniors" workshops and you can document your learning with a Special Certificate showing that you have had concentrated training in "Older Adult Fitness". This special recognition certificate will be provided free of charge if you take all 4 of our "Functional Aging for Seniors" live classes.

Is this a "certification" ?

Unfortunately, no. "Certification" is a legal term and a "certification" 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.

How it works

After you have completed all 4 of our live classes you will receive access to a special page on our website. All you need to do is click on that link, enter your email address and then fill out a short attendance form. Then, your special certificate will be emailed to you instantly. That’s it!
