                                                                We educate the best trainers in the fitness branch. From start to finish of the education - and beyond!- we support and guide our students.
Functional anatomy is a foundation necessary for all trainers in exercise, fitness and sports. This subject provides a comprehensive introduction to the anatomy of the human body and a wellspring of important knowledge.
The course is constructed to present the information in an interesting and comprehensible manner and features different learning approaches appropriate for Fitness and Personal Trainers.
 
The goal is, to understand the relationship between movement patterns, the human body and relevant anatomical terminology.
 
                                                                Our participants are introduced to the basics of sports nutrition.
As a foundation the composition of general nutrition including macro and micro nutrients, as well as the water balance, are discussed. In order to understand various correlations, the energy metabolism are explained in detail.
In addition, the effects of individual food components in the human body, as well as their importance in sports are covered.
 
                                                                 
                                                                More and more companies are integrating Corporate Wellness and similar health initiatives into their employee benefits packages. By doing so they promote the health and well-being of their employees, reducing the incidence of sick-leave and building healthier, stronger team dynamics. 
Exactly why such initiatives are important is discussed in this introduction to the concept, as well as challenges that such initiatives face including organisational dysfunction.
Participants also learn about the advantages of corporate wellness and some trusted approaches and tools for finding and working with a company. 
We offer suggestions on how to approach companies about Corporate Wellness, how to develop a corporate wellness concept and important organisational points to consider. 
Participants will be exposed to some practical examples and will have the possiblity to perform group work on the topic.
 
                                                                The unit on Marketing and Customer Interaction gives participants some insight into identifying, working with and marketing to their ideal customer. This is one of the most useful units for the aspiring trainer, as it helps them identify their place in the market, which makes for a more successful career start.
We begin by taking a look at Marketing itself to understand exactly what it is and of what relevance it has for personal trainers.
Important basic concepts such as USP, positioning, target market, etc. are introduced and different models from marketing such as the SMART Formula, marketing mix (7Ps) and more are explained.
The communication between trainer and client is also addressed in this unit. Various aspects of communication theory and some guidelines for successful communication are covered. 
Upon completion of this subject, participants are able to develop marketing strategies for their product and/or services, ready to position themselves in a market rich in variety and full of possibility!
 
                                                                A working understanding of human physiology and therefore the relationships between the various functions of the human body is crucial for anyone working in the exercise and fitness field. It is a requisite knowledge for the sufficient practice of their profession.
This course makes the relationships within the human organism graspable for everyone. Take a deep-dive into the human body and learn the functions of our organism for your new profession in fitness.
In this subject you will get a close look at energy metabolism needed for muscle activation, the circulatory system and the pulmonary system.
Any high quality education in fitness and exercise begins with the foundations of anatomy and physiology.
 
                                                                In this unit participants are prepared for successful communication with their clients on every level. In addition, we take a look at how the trainer or coach can go about dealing with their own goals and motives, which will in turn help them better understand their clients.
The right goal-setting and the proper approach to feedback are an important parts of this unit.
The way we manage stress as trainers and with our clients and a variety of learning strategies are explored so these skills can be integrated into your professional approach.
 
                                                                The first part of training theory teaches the basics of training, such as training principles, principles of training design, training methods and the factors of athletic performance. 
As performance, performance diagnostics, training and competition are closely interrelated, they are also taught accordingly in the course.
In the second part of training theory, training is defined and evaluated as a complex action process and in connection with planning, execution and evaluation.
An important part of training theory is still the design of training plans, which is taught in practice with examples of the possibilities of designing a training plan.
In order to delve even deeper into training science, we have worked with top international speakers such as Prof. em. Dr. phil. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. Jürgen Weineck, we have also developed a video workshop on the subject of altitude training.

                                                                Building on the basic exercises, participants in this subject learn advanced exercises such as "Open Leg Rocker" or "Scissors". These require a minimum level of core strength and control.
Moreover, the difficulty level of various exercises can be increased using additional equipment such as Pilates rings and foam rollers. Participants learn how to use these devices with various exercises.
 
                                                                In the Pilates Basic Exercises course, participants learn the precise execution of fundamental Pilates exercises. Exercises such as"the Hundred," "Leg Stretch," or "Side Leg Raises" have found their place in many home workouts, but incorrect execution can render the exercises ineffective or lead to injuries.
Step by step, participants are guided through the exercises - which muscle groups are activated, how breathing is adjusted to the exercise, and what visualizations can facilitate the exercise. There are also examples of modifications and progressions of the exercise in case exercises cannot be performed due to discomfort or movement restrictions.
 
                                                                Participants learn the terminology commonly used in Pilates for exercises. For example, they delve into the complex interplay of muscles that make up the "Powerhouse," how chest breathing works, or body positions such as Pilates Box and Pilates V.
The principles of Pilates such as precision, control, and fluid movements are ingrained in the participants.
 
                                                                 
                                                                When conveying the correct and differentiated execution of exercises, the following principles should always take precedence: breathing, concentration, control, centering, precision, and flow of movement.
Participants learn to execute and instruct Pilates exercises correctly based on these principles.
 
                                                                Mobilizing, stretching, preparing, aligning - all these are components of warm-up in Pilates training. Participants learn not only to prepare their bodies but also to prepare their minds for the workout.
The choice and sequence of Pilates exercises for a session are of paramount importance and are therefore an essential part of this subject.
Finally, participants also learn exercises for the cool down, including stretching, breathing, and relaxation exercises.

A Pilates trainer is a qualified professional who plays an important role in promoting physical health and fitness. The tasks of a Pilates trainer are diverse and aim to help people achieve their physical goals while improving their posture, flexibility, and strength. Here are some of the most important aspects of what a Pilates trainer does:
The remuneration of Pilates trainers per working hour can vary considerably and depends on various factors. A key factor is the location and region in which the Pilates trainer is active. In cities or areas with a higher cost of living, the fees for Pilates trainers are generally higher than in rural or more affordable areas.
The type of Pilates courses also affects income opportunities. Private individual lessons or specialized courses such as Pilates for pregnant women or therapeutic Pilates can generally enable higher fees per hour than standard Pilates courses in fitness studios or group courses.
On our platform Sportkarriere we regularly list job advertisements from fitness studios. There you can apply directly for jobs as a fitness trainer, branch manager, instructor, or studio employee.

The tasks of a Pilates trainer are diverse and aim to help people achieve their physical goals while improving their posture, flexibility, and strength. Here are some of the most important aspects of what a Pilates trainer does:
The remuneration of Pilates trainers per working hour can vary considerably and depends on various factors. A key factor is the location and region in which the Pilates trainer is active. In cities or areas with a higher cost of living, the fees for Pilates trainers are generally higher than in rural or more affordable areas.
The type of Pilates courses also affects income opportunities. Private individual lessons or specialized courses such as Pilates for pregnant women or therapeutic Pilates can generally enable higher fees per hour than standard Pilates courses in fitness studios or group courses.
On our platform Sportkarriere we regularly list job advertisements from fitness studios. There you can apply directly for jobs as a fitness trainer, branch manager, instructor, or studio employee.

Great training and super nice people. You can tell how much emphasis is placed on conveying the necessary knowledge to the course participants in an understandable way. I was even kindly allowed to take a course completely free of charge after there were somewhat problematic and disruptive participants in my group. I will 100% take more courses with you in the future because learning is extremely fun, especially thanks to the friendly staff!

The best thing that could have happened to me is this academy. Access to participants is excellent. All employees are very competent, very professional and very friendly. A person can learn so much that it is indescribably good. I would recommend it to everyone. When I arrived in Austria I was looking for something like this and luckily I found this academy and signed up for the course without hesitation. Everything we get in return is worth 100 times more than what we pay. Indescribable experience, indescribable people, once again and 1000 times I say: Thank you for everything, thank you for this indescribable experience. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

I was able to learn a lot of new things as part of my training at the Flexyfit Academy and was able to take on a new, demanding challenge with my chosen course. The structure of the training courses is very understandable and clear, so that you can master the distance learning course on your own without any problems. If there were any questions, ambiguities or isolated problems, the Academy team was always quick to help and we could always find a common solution. Here and there I would have liked a little more practical relevance. Nevertheless, I always felt very comfortable, had great speakers and with my degree as a qualified medical sports coach, many new doors are now open to me :)
