Real stories from BODYPUMP instructors

Dan Maroun (our Trainer) was delightful and inspirational. I think there was one element that was missing during the training for me, which is that we didn't spend any time during it introducing ourselves to each other or talking about why we all were there. I think it was a missed opportunity for building connection. I would have loved to learn more about the folks that were in the room with me, what their stories were that led them to the certification path, and what their future aspirations were post-training.

I had lots of fun and learned so much in the technique training which I was unaware of. I am glad I had the chance to invest in something I enjoy and also support a platform that encourages others to be their best.

Jen is a fantastic trainer. She truly lives and believes in the LesMills organization. Please know that she is a gem. She is so fun and funny. She’s knowledgeable and yet realistic. Her energy is contagious and I was so lucky to have had the opportunity to train under her! I’m hoping to work with her again in the future!

Hope is a really good instructor. She is encouraging and engaging and REAL. I have taken Body Pump for many years and she corrected my technique on squats and chest press. Both those exercises are so much more effective now! I feel she wants us to succeed.

I had such a great experience in body pump thanks to my amazing instructor! She was incredibly informative, always making sure I understood proper form and technique. What's stood out the most was how she used to relatable stories to explain movements or the white behind something it really just helped everything click.You can tell she's genuinely passionate about Les Mills Workouts, And that energy was contagious! Her enthusiasm actually inspired me took into trying other classes too. Paula, was very fun, motivating and knowledgeable coach!

FAQ's

Je vroeg het.
We hebben geantwoord.

Nee, je hoeft geen kans te hebben om les te geven. Door samen te werken met een plaatselijke club kan het echter gemakkelijker worden om uw onderwijsvaardigheden te oefenen voordat u gaat certificeren. Les Mills Connect maakt het gemakkelijk om lesmogelijkheden te vinden in sportscholen en fitnessclubs bij jou in de buurt.

Instructors Initial Training

Je kunt vind informatie over trainingen bij jou in de buurt.

De initiële training kan tot twee dagen duren, online worden gevolgd vanuit het comfort van uw huis, of u kunt persoonlijk trainen op locaties in het hele land. Evenementen vinden het hele jaar door plaats, dus je hebt genoeg keuze wanneer je aanwezig wilt zijn.

Instructors Initial Training

Wat je trainingsstijl ook is, je kunt leiding geven en inspireren. Je kunt trainingen geven zoals BODYPUMP™ of BODYCOMBAT™, HIIT-trainingen coachen, LES MILLS PILATES™ of LES MILLS YOGA™ geven, of fietslessen en danstrainingen leiden. Bekijk het volledige LES MILLS Programmacollectie.

Instructors Initial Training

Je moet voldoen aan het vereiste fitnessniveau voor je programma.


De intensiteit van elk LES MILLS-programma is anders, dus we raden je aan om veel live lessen te volgen en vertrouwd te raken met de training voordat je je aan de initiële instructeurstraining begint.

Instructors Initial Training

  • Je instructeurshandboek
  • Een smartphone of apparaat om toegang te krijgen tot je trainingsmateriaal en je toegewezen tracks te bekijken
  • Koptelefoons
  • Pen en papier voor het maken van aantekeningen
  • Een verandering van kleding — je zult zweten!
  • Voedsel en water
  • Alleen online: je hebt een stabiele internetverbinding, toegang tot een computer of mobiel apparaat (met microfoon) en camera nodig voor de duur van de training

Instructors Initial Training

Het is tijd om je vaardigheden te oefenen! We raden aan zoveel mogelijk tijd door te brengen met het geven van schaduwles met andere instructeurs. Dit zal je helpen bij het filmen van je beoordelingsvideo voor de eindcertificering.

Tijdens je training krijg je meer informatie over hoe je een succesvolle beoordelingsvideo kunt presenteren.
