Intro
The latest figures show that life expectancy continues to rise and could in fact reach the late 80s by 2030. People are not just living longer, but they are also staying active and looking after themselves. Because of this, the demand for exercise professionals able to work with the older adults special population continues to increase.
Our Level 3 Yoga for Older Adults has been specially designed to enable yoga teachers to safely plan and deliver classes that cater to the specific needs of older adults. It provides a fantastic CPD opportunity for those currently teaching, or any new professionals wishing to widen their skill portfolio.

I passed – Let’s party ;-)
2014-01-29From the start I have had support from the team, nothing was too much trouble, I did try to take part in the training in so rather than a weekly call I was then given a call every few days - it really made a difference!

Level 3 PT
2015-01-14I've just completed my level 3 personal training qualification through HFE, I have to say the standard of reading material and online learning material was easy to understand and thorough. The online advice and support available allowed me to ask questions and get responses quickly which also helped a great deal.

Brilliant Organisation
2014-05-30I've just completed my last weekend level 3 mat Pilates after doing level 2 gym instruction last year. I have shared my experiences with fellow instructors and by far HFE seem to be one of the best fitness education resources out there.
