I took the National Posture Institute Certified Posture Specialist program. First of all, I really like the flexibility of the online course structure. I could get access to the course site at any time and work at my own pace online. It worked perfectly for me as a person who has to work during the day. I went to the course site and studied between breaks and after work.
Secondly, the content of the course is very organized, professional, and practical. It taught me how to perform posture analysis on my clients, corrective exercises and related subjects from different aspects. The video slides gave me great visual and auditory aids to the contents which made learning easier. I applied what I have learned towards my personal training sessions with my clients. They were new to the concepts which made them very excited and engaged. Thank you NPI for expanding my knowledge and business opportunities. I would recommend the classes to my friends who are working in the field or interested in health and fitness.
