HOW DO I BECOME A MOBILITY COACH

To become a mobility coach, you will need to have a strong understanding of human movement and be able to communicate effectively with your clients. Aside from that, you’ll need to obtain a mobility coach certification, which our online courses can assist you with. Once you have these things, you can start your own business or join an existing fitness facility that offers mobility coaching services..

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MOBILITY COACH AND A MOBILITY INSTRUCTOR?

The two terms are often used interchangeably, however a Mobility “Instructor” is usually referring to a Fitness Professional who takes “classes” and a Mobility “Coach” is usually referring to a Fitness Professional who takes personal training clients.

WHY SHOULD A FITNESS PROFESSIONAL COMPLETE A MOBILITY CERTIFICATION COURSE?

A Fitness Professional should complete a Mobility Certification Course if they plan to do the following

Use Mobility in their own training
Use Mobility in their Group Fitness classes
Use Mobility with their Personal Training clients

Mobility Training isn’t covered in depth during your initial Personal Training Certification and therefore chances are you haven’t been trained in how to use Mobility. This can result in the exercises not being performed properly which leads to less benefit and an increased chance of injury.

Completing a Certification ensures that you can both perform the exercises correctly yourself AND coach your clients on how to perform the exercises correctly.

WHY SHOULD A FITNESS PROFESSIONAL COMPLETE A MOBILITY CERTIFICATION NASM RECOGNIZES?

NASM is considered to be a global leader in certifying fitness professionals and has been around for over 30 years. If a course is recognized by NASM – it has gone through a strict accreditation process.

WHY SHOULD A FITNESS PROFESSIONAL COMPLETE AN ONLINE MOBILITY CERTIFICATION COURSE?

There are numerous advantages to completing an online Mobility certification

You can take as long as you like to complete the course

Even after completing the course you log back in and review the course material
