Training theory

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.

The practical sessions are intended to implement, practice, and reinforce the learned theory into practice. Using a guideline, 30 units of relaxation training will be documented.

The goal of the practical sessions is to practice and deepen what has been learned. Participants can record both their own training and guided training sessions with friends and family.

During a session, participants can engage in activities such as progressive muscle relaxation, mental or autogenic training, or breathing exercises. These units can be conducted either individually or with acquaintances/family members. The aim is to develop a sense for relaxation methods so that they can later be competently guided as trainers.

Mental & autogenic training

The significance and benefits of mental training have gained ground in various fields over the past decades, whether in sports, professional life, or personal life.

Mental training offers different techniques to optimize the concentration and performance of individuals. Through techniques such as autogenic training, visualization, goal-setting training, etc., undiscovered potentials could be recognized and utilized.

In the realm of relaxation, mental training helps to slow down the relentless thought process, better understand it, and thus make relaxation possible. The course is divided into theoretical and practical parts, with ample space for self-exploration.

Progressive muscle relaxation

Die progressive Muskelrelaxation (PMR), nach Edmund Jacobson, wird bereits seit 1929 gelehrt. Diese Entspannungstechnik ist wissenschaftlich bestens untersucht.

Viele Institutionen, Therapeuten und Trainer nutzen und empfehlen PMR, um Menschen relativ schnell in einem angenehmen Entspannungszustand zu führen.

Diese Methode hat sich seit Ihrer Entstehung stark weiterentwickelt und ist mittlerweile auch in nur wenigen Stunden erlernbar. Im Fach "Progressive Muskelrelaxation" werden zunächst die theoretischen Hintergründe präsentiert, danach wird diese Technik selbst erlebt und selbständig praktiziert.

Stress theory

In todays modern world, stress is something everyone has encountered. Stress is even described by the World Health Organization as the health hazard of the century.

Thats why its important for trainers to address it, and even more important for relaxation trainers to be well-versed in it.

The beginning of this unit consists of background information on stress theory and definitions of stress. The biology of the stress mechanism is discussed, and physiological aspects are linked to stress.

Throughout this training, participants engage with various approaches such as the reaction-oriented approach or the transactional approach. Various models and schemas are presented that have proven effective.

Following a practical input where participants work independently, the SORK schema is examined in depth, discussing personal stressors, organism-specific factors, personal reaction patterns, and consequences.

The effects of stress and techniques for stress management are explained to participants and illustrated through graphics. Relaxation techniques are introduced, and the concept of relaxation is discussed and linked to related terms.

Career afterwards - how to continue after training

What are the responsibilities of a relaxation trainer?

The responsibilities of a relaxation trainer can be varied and often depend on their work environment, skills and specialisations. Here are some of the most common tasks and responsibilities of a relaxation trainer:

  • Teach relaxation techniques
  • Some relaxation coaches offer individual counselling and support for people who have specific stress or relaxation problems.
  • Relaxation trainers can offer courses and workshops in various environments, such as fitness centres, companies, schools or health facilities.
  • Relaxation trainers help to promote general wellbeing by helping people to reduce stress, solve sleep problems and develop healthier lifestyle habits.
  • A relaxation trainer can monitor the progress of their clients and participants and adjust the relaxation programmes as necessary to achieve the best results.

What do relaxation trainers earn?

The income of a relaxation trainer can vary greatly and depends on various factors, including location, experience, specialisation, number of clients and working environment. In general, relaxation trainers can earn income in different ways:

Fee per session or course: A relaxation trainer can charge clients per session or course. The fee varies depending on the location, market conditions and specialisation of the trainer

Group courses: Relaxation trainers who offer group courses can generate income from course fees. The prices for such courses can vary depending on the target group and location.

Private lessons: Some clients may prefer private lessons or individual counselling. In such cases, relaxation trainers may charge higher fees for personalised attention.

Relaxation trainers have the option of becoming self-employed and passing on relaxation techniques to individuals in their own practice, as well as working in groups. For example, you can give courses or teach in institutions. Nowadays, schools and kindergartens also often have a need for autogenic training.

Some companies also employ an in-house relaxation trainer for their employees to help with work-related stress, so the options are varied and can be flexibly combined.

Training theory

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.

The practical sessions are intended to implement, practice, and reinforce the learned theory into practice. Using a guideline, 30 units of relaxation training will be documented.

The goal of the practical sessions is to practice and deepen what has been learned. Participants can record both their own training and guided training sessions with friends and family.

During a session, participants can engage in activities such as progressive muscle relaxation, mental or autogenic training, or breathing exercises. These units can be conducted either individually or with acquaintances/family members. The aim is to develop a sense for relaxation methods so that they can later be competently guided as trainers.

Mental & autogenic training

The significance and benefits of mental training have gained ground in various fields over the past decades, whether in sports, professional life, or personal life.

Mental training offers different techniques to optimize the concentration and performance of individuals. Through techniques such as autogenic training, visualization, goal-setting training, etc., undiscovered potentials could be recognized and utilized.

In the realm of relaxation, mental training helps to slow down the relentless thought process, better understand it, and thus make relaxation possible. The course is divided into theoretical and practical parts, with ample space for self-exploration.

Progressive muscle relaxation

Die progressive Muskelrelaxation (PMR), nach Edmund Jacobson, wird bereits seit 1929 gelehrt. Diese Entspannungstechnik ist wissenschaftlich bestens untersucht.

Viele Institutionen, Therapeuten und Trainer nutzen und empfehlen PMR, um Menschen relativ schnell in einem angenehmen Entspannungszustand zu führen.

Diese Methode hat sich seit Ihrer Entstehung stark weiterentwickelt und ist mittlerweile auch in nur wenigen Stunden erlernbar. Im Fach "Progressive Muskelrelaxation" werden zunächst die theoretischen Hintergründe präsentiert, danach wird diese Technik selbst erlebt und selbständig praktiziert.

Stress theory

In todays modern world, stress is something everyone has encountered. Stress is even described by the World Health Organization as the health hazard of the century.

Thats why its important for trainers to address it, and even more important for relaxation trainers to be well-versed in it.

The beginning of this unit consists of background information on stress theory and definitions of stress. The biology of the stress mechanism is discussed, and physiological aspects are linked to stress.

Throughout this training, participants engage with various approaches such as the reaction-oriented approach or the transactional approach. Various models and schemas are presented that have proven effective.

Following a practical input where participants work independently, the SORK schema is examined in depth, discussing personal stressors, organism-specific factors, personal reaction patterns, and consequences.

The effects of stress and techniques for stress management are explained to participants and illustrated through graphics. Relaxation techniques are introduced, and the concept of relaxation is discussed and linked to related terms.

Scholarship & Educational Leave

Can I get financial aid for my education?

At Flexyfit Sports Academy you have various opportunities to support your education. There are different scholarship programs at the state and EU levels, as well as tax incentives that serve as a basis.
Please note, however, that the decision on the assignment and extent of the scholarship is the absolute responsibility of the respective funding agency.
We are happy to help you finding a suitable finacial support and provide you with all the course information you need for a scholarship application. You must submit the application itself to the relevant funding agencies.

How does the scholarship work?

Depending on the finacial support program your training will be financed either by direct cost coverage after confirmation of the scholarship application (e.g. AMS) or by full or partial compensation after successful completion of the training (e.g. Waff). We recommend contacting the relevant funding institutions in person to find out about individual scholarship options.

Can I take educational leave for my course?

Yes, the majority of our courses are suitable for educational leave
If you wish to study without quitting your job, you can arrange an educational leave with your employer. In this case you will be released from work for the duration of the course.

Plan your educational leave with us now! We are happy to help you determine your individual training needs in a personal, non-binding consultation .

How does education leave work?

You can take your educational leave for a maximum of 1 year within 4 years. There are 3 ways you can structure it:
  • Educational leave over a period of 12 months at a time
  • Educational leave split, with each part lasting at least 2 months. The parts must be consumed within 4 years.
  • Educational leave with partial time off for studies extending over a period of 2 years

Please note that this is a general summary and it is advised that further details and conditions be obtained from the appropriate agencies or authorities.
For an educational leave, the approval of your employer is required. You must submit the educational plans issued by us, which include a volume of 20 hours per week for a full-time educational leave or at least 10 hours per week for a part-time educational leave.
In addition, it is necessary to provide regular evidence of the progress of your training, for example through examinations or attendance certificates issued by us.

Career afterwards - how to continue after training

What are the responsibilities of a relaxation trainer?

The responsibilities of a relaxation trainer can be varied and often depend on their work environment, skills and specialisations. Here are some of the most common tasks and responsibilities of a relaxation trainer:

  • Teach relaxation techniques
  • Some relaxation coaches offer individual counselling and support for people who have specific stress or relaxation problems.
  • Relaxation trainers can offer courses and workshops in various environments, such as fitness centres, companies, schools or health facilities.
  • Relaxation trainers help to promote general wellbeing by helping people to reduce stress, solve sleep problems and develop healthier lifestyle habits.
  • A relaxation trainer can monitor the progress of their clients and participants and adjust the relaxation programmes as necessary to achieve the best results.

What do relaxation trainers earn?

The income of a relaxation trainer can vary greatly and depends on various factors, including location, experience, specialisation, number of clients and working environment. In general, relaxation trainers can earn income in different ways:

Fee per session or course: A relaxation trainer can charge clients per session or course. The fee varies depending on the location, market conditions and specialisation of the trainer

Group courses: Relaxation trainers who offer group courses can generate income from course fees. The prices for such courses can vary depending on the target group and location.

Private lessons: Some clients may prefer private lessons or individual counselling. In such cases, relaxation trainers may charge higher fees for personalised attention.

Relaxation trainers have the option of becoming self-employed and passing on relaxation techniques to individuals in their own practice, as well as working in groups. For example, you can give courses or teach in institutions. Nowadays, schools and kindergartens also often have a need for autogenic training.

Some companies also employ an in-house relaxation trainer for their employees to help with work-related stress, so the options are varied and can be flexibly combined.

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 :)
