International Women’s Month: Celebrating Women in Fitness
|
March marks International Women’s Month – a time to celebrate the incredible women in our lives and around the world who display incredible strength in all aspects of life.
When it comes to the fitness industry, it wouldn’t be where it is today without the hard work of many women along the way. We are constantly inspired by the way women in the industry break down barriers and inspire others.
There are countless women who we look up to in fitness – from professional athletes who are winning medals to female fitness professionals who are helping improve the lives of others to everyday women who embrace movement for their own health.
The power of movement at every life stage
We’re all for empowering women to stay active and healthy all throughout their life, and we love helping women achieve their passion to work in the fitness industry, whether it’s as a PT, yoga instructor, Pilates instructor, ETM instructor, sports massage therapist, or any other area of fitness. And we also believe all fitness instructors, both men and women, should have the expertise to offer specialised services to their female clients.
To help women stay active through every major life stage, we have developed a couple of qualifications to offer specialised services to perinatal women and women who are transitioning through menopause.
Perinatal
Get qualified to work alongside women who are pregnant or who have recently had a baby. You’ll learn how to deliver safe and effective exercise routines that are tailored to perinatal women. The skills you learn can be applied to one-to-one sessions or in group exercise classes.
Menopause
Empower women to stay active, healthy, and confident while they are transitioning through menopause. The course addresses an important societal need – 70% of people going through menopause in the UK want to be more active but just need a bit of guidance on how they can do that. You’ll learn about the various ways menopause impacts the body and be able to create specialised exercise programmes to help women gain confidence and achieve their fitness goals while improve their menopausal symptoms. This is a brand-new course that will be launching soon… keep an eye on our website!
If you would like to learn more about either of these courses, we’d love to chat! Click here to schedule in a call with one of our Course Advisors.
Happy International Women’s Month!
