After passing your exam, we will take you through some practical training to help you feel confident before leading your first class or client. Once your training is complete, you'll see your name on our group fitness schedule and can start changing lives! 

 

Ready to get started? Sign up for FREE to receive our group fitness instructor study materials or personal trainer study materials, study the topics at your own pace, and then take our in-house exam. 

 

While our exam allows for self-paced study and the course can be completed remotely, we require that you are prepared to take the test in person before August 24th or when you first arrive back at school for the Fall semester. You will receive an email in the next 1-2 business days after signing up with your materials and next steps.
