GET REAL, GET SAFE,   GETSMART

What is it?

• GetSmart Fitness is a series of license free fully accredited programs for inhouse training of Group Exercise, PT and Gym Staff.
• Developed by The Music and Motion Studio, this training will cover a major gap in the market where currently it is up to staff individually to ensure their own training.
• Instructors are not adequately assessed in most instances, therefore possibly returning to the centre with their own interpretation of what has been taught.

Our goal and vision ….

• Is to have every trainer knowledgeable and competent in designing correct and specific exercises
• Is for the gym management to be secure in the knowledge that all staff will be trained to the same exceptional level
• Is for the gym management to feel comfortable that their members are getting the best attention possible
• Is to create team unity in centres among trainers and management.

The exciting news for Gym owners is GetSmart Fitness programs are license free!

• Our sole aim is to ensure all fitness personnel have a complete understanding of these programs and how they can turn the knowledge gained into safe sessions in your centre.
• Gym owners will then be able to get on with the business of running the centre without needing to be concerned about whether instructors are performing well – they will be confident that they are!

What does it include?

1. Each program is a 6 – 8 hour training package hosted at your fitness centre or our training studio.  This includes a practical session and a comprehensive manual.
2. Among the areas to be covered extensively will be technique, safety, class planning and program prescriptions.   Staff will be assessed during this time in order to determine if they can be accredited.
3. Competent instructors after assessment will receive Certificate of Competency in that particular program, which will be valid for 12 months.
4. Individual assessments, allowing correction and coaching to ensure high quality training.  Assessments not completed on the day can be sent to us via DVD later.

Updates are offered which will include additional areas of interest within that program.  For example if it’s a SmartFitball program, the first quarterly update could be SmartFitball and Pregnancy.

This unique program offers opportunity for all staff within the centre to personalise the training to suit their specific requirements based on the extensive information learned on the day.

INVESTMENT PACKAGE STARTS AT $999
This package includes:

• training by professional trainers
• Inhouse assessment
• Comprehensive and user friendly program manual
• CEC certificate for all attendees
• Certificate of participation qualifying each staff member as a GetSmart Fitness program instructor (once successful completion of the assessment)
• Accrediting your Centre as a GSF trained centre upon successful assessment
• Ongoing assistance when required

 

Covering the cost

• This can be covered by the centre to reward your staff for their efforts and loyalty
• The centre can subsidise the course and therefore the staff pay a minimal fee.  Costs can be as little as $50 per person based on 20 staff at the minimum cost

It is compulsory for all staff to attend for the Fitness Centre to be accredited as a GSF Accredited Centre.

 

How does this benefit the instructor / trainer?

• Currently fitness personnel have to organise their own updates by attending workshops, subscribing to magazines or going to conventions.  This is a huge cost and time commitment.
• A valuable and inexpensive way to earn CEC’s
• Having the benefit of training in their own centre and also receive their accreditation points is a huge bonus minimising cost and commitment plus working as a team
• At the same time they are learning to be the BEST they can be and really be in a position to help the members become their best with correct knowledge and skills provided.
• This will educate fitness personnel to know how and why they do what they do – not just what they do!
