Become a LES MILLS SPIN INSTRUCTOR. ONLINE TRAINING COURSE.
Dates: February 20 & 21, 2021
Times: 9am – 5pm CST both days
Want to join in on our mission to create a fitter planet? Awesome – we’d love to have you on the team! Whether you’ve been teaching for years or are starting fresh, we’ll give you the tools you need to be successful.
We want to be upfront and avoid surprises down the line. So, before we dive into detail, here’s the bottom line on what’s required to become certified and stay certified with us:
Your Trainer on this course will be Jennifer Lucas.
PLEASE NOTE: Stationary bicycles are required for the entirety of the training weekend as well as pre- and post-training filming.
For your final assessment video (due 60 days post-training), you will need to use the proper equipment and follow the usual Assessment guidelines (see Assessment Video section below). Your trainer will also discuss Assessment more in depth with you during training.
ATTENDANCE:
– You must attend 100% of your Initial Training Module – no exceptions
PHYSICAL FITNESS:
– Your training will be physically and mentally challenging! The training contains both practical and theoretical components and is designed for participants who are experienced in fitness classes, in good mental health and physically fit.
– If you are unsure about the level of your fitness for whatever reason, including injury, sickness or pregnancy, you should consult your medical adviser before registering for the training and should not participate if your health or ability to exercise is at risk. If reasonably requested by us, you agree to provide us with clearance from a licensed medical professional. If you are not able to provide such clearance – or if it otherwise reasonably appears to us at any time that your health might be at risk – we reserve the right to ask you to leave training (and your assessment video will not be accepted). If this happens, there will be no refund for the price paid for the training. However, at our discretion, we may transfer your training to another date or program.

You need to bring: * LES MILLS Release kit (on your electronic device) * A pen and paper for taking notes * iPod or a device to listen to your assigned tracks * We also recommend bringing a laptop or tablet so that you can review your allocated tracks as homework after the first day * Fluid and snacks to sustain you throughout the day, and changes of clothes (you are going to sweat. A lot.) |
