Course Overview for the EMS License Trainer

We offer both Level 1 and Level 2 courses. Level 1 is a pre-requisite to level 2.
EMS is a training technique that applies electric impulses to muscles, making them contract in much the same way they do during exercise (but is gentler on the joints). This versatile qualification done in cooperation with Miha Bodytec and GluckerKolleg is the perfect match for personal trainers and can be a welcome addition to the skill sets of physiotherapists, sport conditioning coaches, aestheticians, and the broader fitness industry. It also unlocks opportunities to work in an EMS studio, or start your own EMS business.
Add Fitness Instructor if you’re looking for a fast-track into a career in fitness, or a bridging qualification into more advanced personal training certifications. This course will equip you with all the skills necessary to meet the duties of a fitness instructor, including assisting clients with proper technique and use of gym equipment and advising on generic exercise programmes.
