Prerequisites:
REPs members need to be qualified to level 2 prior to taking this course.
For others, whilst it is recommended a prior exercise qualification to level 2 or above is held, all those who successfully complete this training can gain insurance to teach indoor cycling, so essentially you just need the desire to become an indoor cycling instructor!
Please note - Our group indoor cycling instructor certifications DO NOT expire!
Because the principles and techniques we teach are sound and thorough, they will continue to be relevant and valid over time, so we do not insist that you redo training or take additional training with us to remain qualified, as some providers do!
We do offer opportunities for instructors to refresh and advance their skills when they choose to and many come back to do more with us becuase they valued the training, not because they had to to remain qualified!
We believe good indoor cycling instructors will continue to learn of their own volition and we support this.
