You will need to have completed the Spin City Beginners Aerial Hoop Course or an equivalent endorsed certification. We also recommend a minimum of 2 years' aerial hoop experience. 

The course price includes access to our online platform for 1 year, lifetime access to our course video library, a digital course manual, access to a pre and post course mentor by email/phone and a full weekend's tuition with one of our qualified tutor assessors.

Upon successful completion of the course, you will receive a certificate.

In the event of a reassessment there is no charge. 

Once enrolled on the course you will be provided with a link where you can purchase a professionally printed manual. 

There is some pre-course reading which is done on our online platform, you’ll also need to watch the course videos and complete the online theory assessment.

If you can’t complete the online theory before the weekend you can still attend however, you won’t be able to claim your certificate until the theory has been completed. 

This course will develop on from the basic skills taught at the beginners’ level while adding on the next block of moves in the Spin City syllabus. At this point in your instructor training, we start increasing your knowledge of core concepts such as training lifting, execution and clean movement. We will then expand your instructional toolbox, giving you a range of teaching methods that work effectively when students are at height and inverted under the top bar. We will discuss class planning in the context of progress chains and how you can use combinations and sequences to both challenge your students, avoid them hitting move plateaus, and ensure safe progression.

All our courses come with a Spin City Certificate and are endorsed by:

ACTIVE IQ

AFAA – Aerobics and Fitness Association of America

NASM – National Academy of Sports Medicine

PDC – Pole Dance Community (Pole Fitness and Anatomy & Physiology Courses only).

Our courses are recognised by insurers worldwide and your certificate will assist you to obtain public liability and professional indemnity insurance that will cover you for teaching. 

The Spin City courses have been written for adults who are apparently healthy in the general population. With your certificate you can expect your insurers to cover you to teach adults over the age of 18.

Insurance companies will require you to hold an additional certification to teach any group that is termed as a 'special population', which includes children and young people (under the age of 18), older adults (over the age of 55), pre- and post-natal women and those with disabilities.  

Theory: the theory test can be retaken online as many times as you like until you pass.

Practical:  in the event of a ‘referral’ in any of the practical units, you will receive detailed feedback and an action plan that will give clear instructions of what we will need to see for you to achieve a full pass. You may be able to retake the unit over the weekend. If not you will be handed over to our online assessor and mentor who will provide you with support over email/phone and who will guide you through the reassessment process. 

You will have up to 6 months to complete your practical re-assessment by video submission.
