What is elevatED?

An elevatED teacher training is an in-person, 3-day, 20-hour course comprised of lecture, techniques, and mock instruction. The program is designed to build your leadership skills, confidence, movement repertoire, and knowledge. This will allow you to deliver not just great classes, but memorable experiences your students will crave!

elevatED approaches its content from an intellectual standpoint, grounded in up-to-date exercise science. Each training includes: theory about how to be a smart, safe, and effective instructor; practical applications of the theories presented throughout the training; and time to practice and instruct our innovative teaching techniques. These combined elements make elevatED one-of-a-kind.

All trainings include breakdowns of how to present a warm-up, design a class, teach skills, and cultivate the highest level of strength, flexibility, and performance, as well as how to inspire creativity and individuality among students.

After passing a practical and written exam, participants receive a certification of completion.
