Do You Qualify for a
Teaching Vacation?
Group Fitness qualifications:
Group fitness instructors must carry a current group fitness certification and be able to teach multiple class formats. One format specialties, i.e. aqua only or circuit only, do not qualify. The only exception is spinning. We have several resorts specifically interested in spin instructors.
Personal Trainer qualifications:
Personal trainers must have a current PT certification. PTs must be able to work one on one with clients or in a group setting. For Group Training without a full group fitness certification try a bootcamp course to increase outside the gym training comfort. This will not qualify you as a group fitness instructor, but is necessary for the personal trainer as Fit Bodies contracted resorts request trainers to provide at least some group styled programming outside the gym.
Tennis qualifications:
We prefer current USPTA or PTR professionals. If not USPTA or PTR certified, you must have a minimum of 5 years experience teaching adults of all levels and must have references from the head pro of a tennis facility.
Yoga/Pilates qualifications:
These two formats are listed together in our system. Yoga/Pilates pros much either carry a current certification or have at least 50 documented hours of training. All Yoga/Pilates resorts accept Yoga pros. Not all resorts accept Pilates and some resorts require both formats. Please be sure to read the long description to ensure you qualify for the resort you are about to book.
Other Specialties:
While not currently requested on a week to week basis, we do have requests from time to time to fulfill various resort training needs, wellness week themes, or specific traveling group requests. We invite you to join this fitness industry professional network with the understanding that travel program opportunities may be limited for specialties not listed above.
Other Opportunities:
Retreats - We (Fit Bodies & FIT Launch) can assist in the creation of a creative and stream lined retreat program. Our contracts with excellent resorts all over the Caribbean and the offering of turn-key programming options to assist and add to your own creative offerings make it easy.
Retreats can be offered by Fitness, Sport, or Allied Health professionals of any specialty. <more>
Specialty Group Request Fit Pro - Fit Bodies contracted resorts also will request Fitness, Sport, or other Allied Health professionals to work specifically with some of their "VIP" visiting groups. These opportunities can be very exceptional and place you as the Specialty Fit Pro for a celebrity group.
Specific requests are made for particular specialty of fitness & health. With that request Fit Bodies will search Fitness Pro Travel members, starting with the Premium Members, to find the ideal matching candidate and send a request for the specific date/location needs.
