Course Overview
Welcome to the Level 1 Towel Instructor Course. In this one-day CPD course, you will discover how a simple towel can be transformed into a versatile piece of equipment.
Ever wondered about the significance of learning to utilize a towel?
Most clients bring a towel with them to a session, little do they know they are bringing the most versatile piece of kit. Uncover throughout the day how a humble towel can substitute every single piece of gym equipment, offering adaptability from a pulley machine to a barbell or dumbbell.
Towel training offers a comfortable grip, far more accommodating than the cumbersome and awkward handling of traditional free weights. Unlike standard dumbbells or weight stacks displaying specific kilograms, towels don't carry numbers. This allows each set to be tailored for overload, without clients comparing themselves to others or wrestling with self-doubt.
Towels are adaptable for clients of all fitness levels, making them a cost-effective, lightweight, and portable addition to your toolkit. Learn 30+ towel exercises with variations, blending strength and cardiovascular training for both individual and group-based sessions.
Boost your instructing confidence and seamlessly integrate towel training into your existing methods for enhanced client results.
A key part of the course is being able to mix with other like-minded fitness professionals for a full day. Leave this one-day course buzzing with ideas and enthusiasm to integrate into your current FITPRO practice.
Upon completion, you will be armed with a new tool that is functional, dynamic and fun, adding variety to all client sessions.

1 Day Face-To-Face
You'll join us for 1 day in our Milton Keynes Academy. You'll have 4 practical workshops where you'll go between the classroom and the gym.
There's very little sitting around with 90% of the day being practical based.
The practial workshops are not a test of your own fitness or what you can do.
Rather it's a time to practice coaching and learn how to be an outstanding towel instructor.
Below is an overview of what to expect:
Workshop 1: This workshop introduces the nuances of utilising a towel as the main piece of exercise equipment. You'll learn the various approaches to setting up towel exercises and how to control intensity. We'll start the practical with learning:
Back and horizontal pulling exercises
Chest and horizontal pushing exercises
Coaching & Instructing practice
Cardiovascular & Game play exercises
Workshop 2: This workshop will focus on your skillset as an instructor, including tone of voice, teaching position, coaching cues and observations. These skills are refined whilst learning and practicing these exercises:
Shoulder and vertical pressing exercises
Arm isolation exercises
Cardiovascular & Game play exercises
Workshop 3: After lunch we'll start with "how to plan a 121 and group based session". We'll explore key session variables to ensure all your future planing isn't time consuming or overwhelming. We'll finish Workshop 3 exploring the:
Squat variations
Lunge variations
Lower body isolation exercises
Coaching small groups 2-6 clients
Coaching larger groups 6+ clients
Workshop 4: Here we'll deep dive into a short business section on how you might offer towel training to clients, what a Towel package/class might look like and how you'd price and implement it. We'll conclude the final session with:
Core stability exercises
Core strength exercises
Stretching & Flexibility exercises
Each workshop is formatively assessed... meaning you are assessed throughout the day as you coach 121 and in small groups. This is a 1-day CPD course, we do not want you stressing about a final practical assesment. We find this ongoing assessment of "Show, Practice, Assess" means you learn far more and leave the day confident and remembering everything.
We've qualified over 500 Towel instructors since 2019. We look forward to you being the next one.
Why Can't I Do This Online?
You can... just not with Parallel Coaching. This might sound tongue in cheek!
We advocate the value of face-to-face learning. Being in a classroom with tutors and peers provides a unique, safe environment to build confidence in technique and instructing skills.
Despite travel expenses and time commitments, our learners from across the UK and Europe find it worth the investment.
