Group Exercise Leader (GEL)
Learn to teach choreography-based aerobics & strength training (portable equipment) in large class formats.
This program focuses on the components of your fitness class, use of music, cueing, teaching methods, choreography and leadership skills. In addition to basic floor aerobics, students will also receive specialization training in the use of portable equipment for group exercise classes. A GEL can teach both choreographed ( cardio-based ) and non-choreographed classes such as HIIT and circuit classes.
