Balance Specialist Training Course

Are you a fitness professional? Do you work with adults over 65? Are you hungry for science-backed insights and training resources to help you grow your business?

Often when speaking to people about balance, they want to narrow it down to just one element - “inner ear problems” and “core strength” are two terms we hear a lot. Balance is more complex than that, though both of those elements are important parts of it.

So how to harness people’s curiosity and help them understand how the elements of balance uniquely combine for them and design a program to help them improve?

One thing has been demonstrated in numerous studies - improved balance and coordination are realistic goals, even when people start out very frail (either through injury or decline). And their risk of falling can also be meaningfully reduced when the program is appropriate and personalized.

We’ve poured our insights gained from studying both astronauts and older adults over 15 years into a new Balance Specialist training course that you can complete online wherever you are. The course takes just 3 hours and is assessed by end of topic quizzes. Pass each module before progressing to the next one.

You’ll learn why balance declines, understand the fall risk equation, and get ideas for appropriate exercises to help your clients keep progressing as their balance improves.

This course has already been approved for CEUs by the Functional Aging Institute, ACE, NASM and AFAA. Trainers who successfully complete the course may opt to be included in the Zibrio Balance Specialist database, now live on the Zibrio website.

Being able to measure your clients’ balance can take your training to the next level. In just 60 seconds you can get a baseline for where your client is. Then check them weekly or monthly to show them the results of your program and help keep them motivated. Our Zibrio Pro scale comes in sleek black, plugs into the wall, and auto starts. It discreetly displays the score between 1-10 at the end of the test.
