Deliver Safe, Effective, and Engaging Seated Workouts That Clients Love

Course Overview

Introducing our NEW Chair-Based Exercise Instructor Course — designed to transform the way you support and train clients with seated, low-impact exercise.

The UK's ageing population presents both challenges and opportunities for fitness professionals. It's reported, over 11 million people (18.6% of the population) are aged 65 and over, and by 2030, this number is projected to rise to nearly 13 million (22%).

It's likely that some of your current clients are part of this group, and future clients will increasingly be older adults. As the UK's demographic ages, clients seek an alternative and inclusive method of staying healthy into older age.

The demand for inclusive, accessible fitness programs is on the rise. This Chair-Based Exercise Course goes beyond conventional training, empowering you to lead engaging and effective chair-based exercise sessions.

Whether you're a newly qualified or seasoned fitness professional, recognizing the chair as a valuable piece of exercise equipment is essential. As the UK's demographic evolves, clients increasingly seek adaptations and regressions through chair-based exercises.

Elevate your expertise with this course and become a comfident and knowledgable chair-based exercise instrucor.

This course is delivered 100% online and upon successful completion, you’ll receive two certificates, certifying you as a specialist and further boosting your expertise and career opportunities.

Below is a full outline of your journey through the Chair-Based Exercise Course
