In a recent fitness industry survey, over 40% of respondents indicate they enjoy group exercise programming. Group fitness instructors have the skill and ability to lead large groups during an exercise class while personal trainers specialize in delivering one-on-one services. These two highly different types of professionals share a common theme of helping others through exercise, but achieve it through vastly different means. Personal trainers who learn how to teach group fitness have the best of both worlds – they are able to help people exercise while using a platform to demonstrate their skills to a number of prospective clients. In this recorded webinar, originally hosted by ACE’s Pete McCall on October 5, 2010, learn how to expand your skill set and fitness toolbox as a personal trainer using specific strategies for teaching groups. Enjoy the benefits of an ACE instructor in the comfort of your own home through this convenient online webinar.
