INTERMEDIATE 2 DAY WORKSHOP £300
ADVANCED 2 DAY WORKSHOP £300


Vertical Dance is very proud to present the ‘Level 2 Certificate in Instructing The Vertical Dance Workout’, written by industry expert Vertical Dance.
 

 

The course is designed for those with existing fitness qualifications at level 2, such as Exercise to Music qualifications externally accredited by CYQ, OCR or AIQ.

Combined OCR in Exercise to Music and Vertical Dance Workout.
This course is designed to fast-track those students who do not hold an exercise to music qualification but wish to teach Vertical Dance group exercise sessions. You will gain the skills and knowledge to safely and effectively teach both traditional exercise to music and vertical dance exercise sessions.


Course Format

After booking your course you will be sent your learning materials comprising 1 manual, a workbook, and an instructional DVD.
 

You will be required to complete the work book, study the DVD and practice your Vertical Dance moves before you come on the course.
 

Once you have completed your home study, and are fully prepared for your assessment, you will attend workshops. These fun and challenging days will allow you to practice your teaching skills using the latest moves and choreography, whilst receiving support and guidance from KT Coates.  


Who should go on the course?

Those wishing to teach vertical dance sessions, or those already teaching them and require a formal qualification.

What is an Exercise To Music Qualification?
For those that do not hold a certification in ETM, I will give you a brief description of the course. To teach any studio based class involving music you require this qualification. It includes work on the bodies anatomy, customer care, planning and teaching an ETM class, safe and effective warm up and cool down, choreography and music structure, the components of physical fitness and much more. It will give you a great foundation to teaching a Pole Dance class.
 


How is the Vertical Dance Course structured?

The course consists of 2 days structured training and 1 day of practical exam assessment. This is delivered over two weekends, one month apart. There is an element of written and practical assessment, with work books and manuals. You will be taught the skills required to deliver a  safe and effective exercise Class based around a pole at basic level.


Are there other courses out there?

Yes there are other courses on the market that provide teacher training but these courses are unrecognised, this is the only Pole Dance cour
se in the world to be accredited by an awarding body.
The role of an awarding body is to scrutinise the delivery and assessment to ensure it meets sufficient quality standards. You can therefore guarantee that this course will offer you the content and quality that you would expect from any mainstream qualification.


How do I book?
