Your New Career as a Children's Fitness Instructor Starts Here

Whether your goal is to work with children exclusively or this demographic will be only a portion of your clientele, this Children’s Fitness Instructor Course can provide the skill sets needed to enter this specialization. It also adds to your credibility as a trainer, telling your young clients and their parents or guardians that you have the education needed to work with children and youth.

You can use this course to design exercise plans for individual clients or to create programs that meet the exercise needs of youth groups. This opens the door to training kids involved in certain sports, those interested in specific physical activities, or simply to promote exercise at a young age, thereby helping kids establish positive health habits that can reduce their risk of obesity later in life.

By working with children, personal trainers are able to teach this demographic the importance of fitness and how to incorporate physical activity into their everyday lives. This provides these clients lifelong benefits, thanks in large part to the time that you invested in their health and wellness during their younger years.
