I’m super excited that I picked up a couple of classes with my local university’s employee wellness program. This episode I talk about what those programs typically look like and how you can search out and provide fitness classes to any organization that has employee wellness programs. Check out https://www.uwo.ca/hr/safety/well_being/wellness/living_well to see an example of this type of program.

Another mind-body option for group fitness instructors. I really love this format. If you are interested in learning more about it check out www.Zumba.com/en-US/circl-mobility.

I have been a TRX fan for at least 20+ years. So when I was going through my yoga training journey in 2023 one of the obvious formats I had to look into was TRX yoga. I took the training and have my tier 1 certification now. I would highly recommend it to any group fitness instructor, looking to increase their offerings.

Instructors: if you have had experience teaching, pre-choreographed programs, and formats for companies, like Les Mills and MOSSA, you are going to love Power Music’s Group Rx programs. They come included with a subscription, which includes Fitness 32 count produced music for your other fitness classes that you teach. And even for a little bit more you can get royalty free music to use for online classes that you post. I have been using them for over 20 years and I recommend them 100%. They are the number one source of workout music and you can find them at www.powermusic.com. My top picks: RIP a barbell resistance class, and TRANSFORM yoga and sports movement class.

I currently teach MOSSA programs and from a participants point of view, I wanted to review their on-demand program. At $9.99 a month it’s pretty fantastic. If you are looking for really well produced programs and workouts to do at home, these ones will not disappoint. Check them out at www.mossaondemand.net.

A quick rundown from an instructor perspective as to whether or not taking group fitness classes or teaching them at a college or university recreation facility is an option for you. I’m of course going to only speak from my personal and professional experience in the University that I teach at so definitely look into your local one and do some research.

Let’s say this is part one of a series where I discuss different places that you can (a) as an instructor teach at and (b) as a participant find group fitness classes. Inspired by the recent closure of the gym that I was teaching at, this episode talks about my return to the YMCA after 10 years and why I recommend it to instructors and participants alike.

As part of the L.E.A.D. program through The Women in Fitness Association (WIFA), the Enneagram or Personality Test is just the first step in creating your "WHY". The assessment was so spot on, and exactly what I needed to kickstart my journey to self discovery. The results didn't just point out my personality type, it gave extensive details about each character trait and how I can use them to better my understanding of who I truly am. Listen as my L.E.A.D. partner and frequent guest, Coach Megan and I go over our results! If you are interested in taking the test, go to https://www.enneagraminstitute.com.
