THE HANDS-ON TRAINING. LIVE OR ONLINE

As a personal trainer you don’t work behind bulletproof glass, instead very close to the client. In order to teach exercises correctly, physical contact is necessary. Every personal trainer knows that clumsy touching can lead to misunderstandings. Professional “hands-on” is a core competence of successful personal trainers and physiotherapists. However, there is not a well-founded training option on the market yet.

In this online seminar, Tim provides you with his effective and easy-to-implement knowledge. This creates security and competence, which are important when work, Hands-on with clients. Your existing knowledge will be deepened and individually enriched

The exercises can be understood as training elements that provide you with efficient “hands-on” techniques. Nevertheless, the hands-on techniques and variations do not replace your training concept. However, they will help you to take care of your client’s situational and with clarity during exercise and to touch them correctly. This will certainly prevent misunderstandings.
