One benefit of online learning is that you can complete the course in your own time. This course is perfectly designed to suit busy students with full time work or family commitments as you will have completely flexible study hours. There is no need to forgo your regular work while you study with us, and you don’t need to spend on travel or hotels either. You will be able to repeat and review any material as much as you feel you need to. Depending on how much time you dedicate to the material and your own practice, you can complete the course in around fifty hours. If you already have a lot of aerial experience, or if you are already a movement teacher, you might do it in a little less. If you haven’t had experience, you will want more practice time in the hammock, and allow more time for the sequences to marinate, then you can allow a little more time. When you purchase an AFI course you receive lifetime access to it. (Not that we expect you will take that long! It’s just nice to know you can review and refresh from time to time)

It is not necessary to be at a particular level in your own fitness or practice. You’ll find that over the training period your personal skills will develop magnificently as you work through the course and practice the modules.

Our course is comprehensive and it is a stand-alone instructor training course. In other words, you don’t need to already be teaching some sort of physical class and you will be able to become a successful aerial teacher on completion.

This course will give you:

• A clear understanding of how to best structure your classes. You will have the step by step instructions such as where your students need to be to begin, perform, and complete each move.
• Precise knowledge of exactly what you need to help your students. For example, how each handgrip needs to be, how high up, how many gathers to take, and you will know all the key cueing points.
• You will be able to give clear instructions to keep everyone in the room safe. You will be able to offer both hands-on and hands-off assistance as required.
• You will learn how and when you need to move around the room and exactly where to best position yourself in each part of the class.
• You will discover the best ways to transition from one more to the next so your classes will flow beautifully.
• And much much more. (see course contents for exactly what’s included in each course)

With all this knowledge you will be able to instruct with confidence and flair, even if you are brand new to teaching.

Yes, you will need to read the manual, watch the training videos, and practice alongside the experience videos. It is important to digest all the components of the course to understand how it fits together. However, if you are a movement teacher or already hold some type of fitness instructing qualification, you will flow through the modules a little faster. Prior knowledge will certainly help fast track you through the course and integrate the components more speedily.
