In the 8-hour, AquaStretch™ for Fitness & Wellness Course, you will feel the power and simplicity of the AquaStretch™ four-step process: Play – Freeze – Pressure – Move. • Learn the many benefits of AquaStretch™. Many say it helps them feel loose and mobile prior to or after workouts and competitions. It may even motivate beginning clients to continue their exercise program because they have much less muscle soreness following workouts. • Feel the immediate freedom of movement. AquaStretch™ has shown to immediately restore flexibility lost from a: sedentary lifestyle, previous injury or surgery, repetitive strain or on-going overuse, or improper healing. • Experience the ‘feel good’ potential of AquaStretch™. This technique has been reported to improve sleep, significantly reduce chronic pains and improve quality of life. Be the first to learn this revolutionary technique! Course is limited to 12 participants per instructor in order to allow guided practice and skill development. Upon completion, participants will receive a certificate acknowledging the completion of 8-hours of training in performance of the AquaStretch™ Fitness & Wellness Procedure.

New students, aspiring to be first-time instructors, are also welcome to begin their teaching journey with the Zumba program. Anyone interested in becoming a Zumba instructor must attend a Zumba Instructor Training Workshop, and then must keep their instructor status current through the variety of courses offered by the Zumba Academy. The first step in becoming a Zumba Instructor is to attend Zumba Basic Steps Level 1. This course teaches you the foundation and formula to teach a Zumba class. You will learn the steps to four basic rhythms (meringue, salsa, cumbia, reggaeton). You’ll learn how to put these steps together into a song, and how to create your first Zumba class. We’ll provide you with all the tools and resources you will need to teach a Zumba class.
