Are you passionate about dance and fitness? Becoming a certified dance fitness instructor can be a transformative step in your career. LaBlast® Fitness offers a unique certification program that blends the artistry of ballroom dance with comprehensive fitness training. Here are five compelling reasons to choose LaBlast® for your dance fitness instructor certification:

1. Comprehensive One-Day Certification

LaBlast®’s certification is a one-day, nine-hour course that immerses you in various dance styles, including Disco, Jive, Lindy Hop, Quickstep, Paso Doble, Foxtrot, Salsa, Merengue, Rumba, and Viennese Waltz. You’ll learn the unique LaBlast® movement philosophy and gain the tools needed to lead your own classes confidently. This intensive training equips you with the versatility to lead dynamic classes that cater to a wide range of participants. Whether you’re a seasoned dancer or new to the world of dance fitness, LaBlast®’s comprehensive approach ensures you’re well-prepared to inspire and motivate your students.

2. Ongoing Support Through LIF Subscription

After certification, instructors gain access to the LaBlast® Instructor Foundation (LIF) monthly subscription. This provides continuous education with new dance patterns, expert teaching tips, and over 100 instructional videos, ensuring your classes remain fresh and engaging. The LIF subscription also includes two full-length class playlists each month, complete with song selections and dance pairings, saving you time on class preparation. Additionally, LIF offers marketing materials like flyers and business card templates to help promote your classes effectively. With a consistent monthly fee, regardless of the number of LaBlast® formats you’re certified in, LIF provides exceptional value for ongoing professional development.

3. Inclusive and Accessible Program

LaBlast® is designed for all fitness levels and ages. Its partner-free approach and adaptable intensity make it accessible to everyone, from beginners to seasoned dancers. This inclusivity allows you to reach a broader audience and create a welcoming environment for all participants. LaBlast® offers various formats, including LaBlast® Fitness, Splash (aquatic), Line Dance, and Chair Fitness, catering to diverse needs and preferences. By offering modifications for different fitness levels and fostering cultural sensitivity, LaBlast® empowers instructors to create inclusive spaces that encourage everyone to engage in dance fitness.

4. Accredited and Recognized Certification

LaBlast®’s certification is accredited by AFAA, NASM, and SCW, providing you with eight hours of Continuing Education Credits (CECs). This recognition enhances your credibility and can open doors to various fitness and wellness opportunities. The accreditation signifies that LaBlast® meets industry standards for quality and effectiveness, giving you confidence in the training you receive. Whether you’re looking to teach in gyms, community centers, or private studios, LaBlast®’s recognized certification can help you stand out in the competitive fitness landscape.

5. Flexibility with On-Demand Certification

Understanding the demands of busy schedules, LaBlast® offers an On-Demand Instructor Certification. This allows you to complete the training at your own pace, providing flexibility without compromising the quality of education. The on-demand option includes the same comprehensive content as the in-person training, ensuring you receive a thorough education in LaBlast®’s methodology. Additionally, the on-demand format grants you access to the LIF subscription, keeping you connected to the LaBlast® community and resources. This flexibility makes it easier for aspiring instructors to pursue certification, regardless of their location or schedule constraints.
