What’s Your GFI What’s Your GFI

I’m super excited that I picked up a couple of classes with my local university’s employee wellness program. This episode I talk about what those programs typically look like and how you can search out and provide fitness classes to any organization that has employee wellness programs. Check out https://www.uwo.ca/hr/safety/well_being/wellness/living_well to see an example of this type of program.

Another mind-body option for group fitness instructors. I really love this format. If you are interested in learning more about it check out www.Zumba.com/en-US/circl-mobility.

I have been a TRX fan for at least 20+ years. So when I was going through my yoga training journey in 2023 one of the obvious formats I had to look into was TRX yoga. I took the training and have my tier 1 certification now. I would highly recommend it to any group fitness instructor, looking to increase their offerings.

Instructors: if you have had experience teaching, pre-choreographed programs, and formats for companies, like Les Mills and MOSSA, you are going to love Power Music’s Group Rx programs. They come included with a subscription, which includes Fitness 32 count produced music for your other fitness classes that you teach. And even for a little bit more you can get royalty free music to use for online classes that you post. I have been using them for over 20 years and I recommend them 100%. They are the number one source of workout music and you can find them at www.powermusic.com. My top picks: RIP a barbell resistance class, and TRANSFORM yoga and sports movement class.

I currently teach MOSSA programs and from a participants point of view, I wanted to review their on-demand program. At $9.99 a month it’s pretty fantastic. If you are looking for really well produced programs and workouts to do at home, these ones will not disappoint. Check them out at www.mossaondemand.net.

A quick rundown from an instructor perspective as to whether or not taking group fitness classes or teaching them at a college or university recreation facility is an option for you. I’m of course going to only speak from my personal and professional experience in the University that I teach at so definitely look into your local one and do some research.
