Benefit from the group fitness boom with the IST-Studieninstitut's B licenses
Group fitness is all the rage: in the forecast by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) for the 2017 fitness year Group fitness is the rising star and back in the top ten for the first time in over ten years. In order to meet the growing demands and requirements of clients as a trainer, the IST Study Institute is now offering two different B licenses in the group fitness sector - to prepare you optimally for your training work.
In order to respond even better to the individual wishes of trainers, the IST-Studieninstitut has now split the B-license Group Fitness, which has been successfully offered on the market for years, into two parts. In the two licenses "Group Fitness Aerobics & Step" and "Group Fitness Toning & Functional Training", participants learn the most important content from anatomy, physiology, training science and the basics of group fitness training - followed by specialization.
Aerobics & Step
Aerobics and step classes have long been part of the offerings of broad-based fitness clubs, associations and vacation clubs. However, customers not only expect fun and a great group experience - the training should also be of high quality and health-oriented. Graduates of this basic training course can plan and teach aerobics and step classes. They teach techniques, steps, postures and choreographies. They also learn in-depth verbal and tactile correction aids and motivation techniques.
Toning & Functional Training
Group fitness programs such as body toning classes, fat burners, circuit interval and functional training are becoming increasingly popular. Graduates of this B license can offer a wide range of group training sessions and courses to strengthening the muscles and for intensive fat burning. They learn various training methods, including using small equipment and other aids, and can offer varied and motivating courses.
Recognized in the industry
The IST-Studieninstitut cooperates with over 1,000 studios. Both licenses are easily recognized as qualifications and are permanently valid. Holders do not have to undertake expensive refresher courses. E-learning, video demonstrations, 3D pdfs, animations and an app for exam preparation enable modern and convenient learning that is flexible in terms of time and location.
