You’ve worked hard to advance your career so why not let that hard work can pay off? Take one of our "bundled" webinar packages and you can document your learning with a Special Certificate showing that you have had concentrated training in a specific, concentrated aspect of fitness! This special recognition certificate will be provided free of charge for each of our webinar bundles.
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 offer a formal, structured 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.

Strength and flexibility are two sides of the same coin, and your client whose goal is to increase their strength is doing themselves a major disservice if they ignore their flexibility training.
