AQUA Instructor

The Aqua Instructor certification is all about exercise in water. Presented by Elsa Storm (PAASA)
Exercising in water is a safe, effective and a challenging way of training. Special populations are not the only persons we exercise in water. Firstly it is safe where injuries have occurred for all types of people. Secondly it is effective as water based resistance provides an adequate exercise environment. And lastly, aqua is challenging but it also prevents overtraining.
Exercising all age-groups is possible by being an Aqua Instructor. By using music, basic aquatic equipment and exercise choreography you are able to provide a great exercise session.
The course is presented LIVE. Online theory and practical assessments are included.
The ability to be confident in water for yourself and in the required assistance of someone else is an important pre-requisite of this course.
