Moving your Fitness Career Beyond Instructing

If you’ve caught one of my former blogs or Facebook Live videos regarding becoming a fitness professional, you may have heard me mention that group fitness instruction is a “passion” position and most people who instruct classes do so because they love it, and NOT for the money, since you essentially make very little income teaching classes (avg. $25 per class x 10 classes a week).

So, how does one make up make up the difference in income if you are looking to make a full-time career in fitness?

You offer more services to your clients! For me, I offer Group Fitness, Personal Training and Virtual Training and coaching, consisting of a many styles of coaching, including Behavioral Change, Nutrition, Life and Business coaching and mentorship.
