Learn how to be a confident and compassionate movement trainer
We will give you all the skills & confidence you need to build your own in-person community.
Our course is right for you if you:
Want to move more, to check in with your body and learn new skills, or;
Want to learn new skills so that you can teach others.
Four days of in-person teaching, an online community & 100s of coaching videos.
A mix of teaching methods, from classroom instruction, to peer coaching to role-playing real-life scenarios to group games.
Small groups - so we have time and space to go over topics in real detail.
No prerequisites - our small groups are very mixed in age and background - some take part just to learn more and others take the Certification. This leads to some incredible conversations!
"Most personal training courses are too technical to be useful. Most movement courses show you cool movements.
Neither give you the skills to become an excellent coach.”
Here’s how we do it…

Learning how to think critically about movement selection.
Session planning for different populations.
