Older Adult Fitness Specialty Module

Live on Zoom:

April 28th to May 12th on Monday and Wednesday evenings 5:30 to 8:30pm PST

The Older Adult Fitness Module is an in-depth and informative course designed to prepare the fitness leader who has already taken a specialty module (Group Fitness, Weight Training, Aqua Fitness, Yoga, Pilates, etc.) to instruct seniors through a safe and effective fitness program. As we age, we go through many changes, both physiological and psychological. You will learn how aging affects the heart, lungs, muscles and other soft tissue and how this affects a person’s flexibility, strength and metabolism. Help the seniors you train to get the best from your training sessions!

What is included in this course?

This course is done over 5 evenings online on Zoom and will be followed with a final assignment to get your certificate.

A digital manual will be included in the course. If you'd like a hardcopy manual, please email to arrange payment and shipping.
