How to become a Personal Trainer with a successful career.

But with such a wide and versatile Professional Training proposal, where do you start?

Based on our experience with thousands of Trainers trained since 2009, we suggest these different options:

1) Do you already have general experience in Functional Training and want to specialise in the use of a specific tool or Training System?

>Start with the course that matches your specific technical interest between Kettlebell Training, Suspension Training, Flowbag & Sandbag Training, Clubs Training, Calisthenics Training, Body Building Functional Training and other specific Functional Training Programs.

2) Are you taking your first steps into the world of Functional Training and do not know where it is best to start?

>If you have good Joint Mobility (of the hips and shoulder girdle) and you already have available or plan to purchase the Functional Training tools, you can begin with the WTA Functional Training® Instructor Course.

>If, on the other hand, you recognise that you don’t have good Joint Mobility (of the hips and shoulder girdle), or you don’t have the Functional Training tools available, your best option is to start with the Primitive Functional Movement® Instructor Course (that is developed entirely free body, and teaches you how to improve Joint Mobility and how to best manage the use of the primary “tool” available in training, your own body).
