Pre / Post Natal Training

A day "off" work to go and gain an extra qualification and continue my education in the fabulous field that is the fitness industry.  And what better way to spend a Friday?

I've spent the last month or so working through study books, online quizzes and virtual lectures, and Friday saw the culmination of this with the full day workshop in Cambridge.  I'm doing this qualification (exercise prescription for pregnancy and post-natal clients) with Premier Training International - the same company with which I gained my PT qualification.  It will add nicely to my exesting pre/post-natal qualification from Burrell Education.

The day involved the 8 of us recapping and consolidating all the info from the home-study course during the morning and then a rather more hands on afternoon of practical work.  And there was even an opportunity for a workout over lunch, as the course was held at Greens Gym.  Marvellous stuff!

Our trainer was brilliant, and very knowledgeable and I came away feeling enthused and confident that I'll have plenty of new tricks up my sleeve for my pregnant ladies.  Not to mention my Buggy Bootcamp Classes in Cambridge (every Tues & Thurs @ 10.30am at Vinery Road park).

So all that remains is for me to complete my coursework (a case study) and then I'll be the proud owner of a shiny new certificate and 20 more REPS CPD points.  Hurrah!
