FitSteps Chair Instructor Training

Get qualified to teach this amazing program – NO monthly licence fee – simply the course cost.

This course is for instructors who are already qualified in FitSteps or FitSteps FAB.

What is FitSteps CHAIR?

FitSteps CHAIR is aimed at providing instructors with the learning and skills to increase their reach and provide FitSteps to those who specifically require seated based exercise. This course takes into account the specific needs of varied demographics including inactive, sedentary, disabled, obese, rehabilitation, recovery, older and frailer older adults in a variety of environments.

FitSteps CHAIR has been created to allow even more people access to FitSteps; and to show that chair based exercise does not need to be slow or boring. You will learn how to take a wider variety of participants on a FitSteps journey of our favourite dances from cha cha cha to American Smooth

This training will show how dances can be safely adapted to increase your customer reach and open the door to new opportunities, whilst showing there is no reason why sessions are as fun, motivating and uplifting as a regular FitSteps class.
