Explore how this two-day training transforms your approach to teaching & sets you up for long-term success
This course is designed around you: your goals, your teaching style, your next step. There’s no right or wrong here - just powerful self-reflection, real-time feedback, and hands-on learning to help you elevate every class you teach.
How it works
Before your training begins, you’ll be allocated a track to focus on. This becomes your foundation for the course. Throughout the two days, you’ll present, reflect, develop, and leave with a personalised Advanced Training Development Plan tailored to your growth. After the workshop, you can submit a Grade Review Assessment, where your track is reviewed against the five key Les Mills coaching elements - complete with detailed feedback and your advanced level.
Day 1
We begin by exploring your “why” - what drives you to teach, and how your values shape the way you lead a class. You’ll dig into what helps you thrive and what might be holding you back. From there, we move into how to embody your programme’s essence, show enjoyment, and stay true to yourself in every moment. You’ll also present your allocated track - either live or via video - and receive guidance to support your development going into Day 2.
Day 2
On Day 2, we explore how to build genuine connection in your classes, how to motivate and educate, and how to elevate the full experience for your participants. You’ll learn how to teach with presence, blend the core coaching dimensions, and use your natural strengths to make a lasting impact. The day wraps up with a final track presentation and clear next steps to continue your progression.
