Your Questions, Answered
What are the prerequisites for becoming a Kangatraining instructor?
To become a Kangatraining instructor, you should have a passion for joyful and healthy movement and a desire to support mums and their babies in their postnatal fitness journey. While a background in fitness or a related field is beneficial, it is not mandatory. However, you must be committed to completing the Kangatraining instructor certification course, acquiring a basic knowledge of safe and high quality postnatal health and fitness knowledge, and continuing your professional development in these areas. Additionally, obtaining a first aid certification is needed to commence classes. Being enthusiastic, approachable, and supportive are key traits for a successful Kangatraining instructor.
What does the Kangatraining instructor certification course involve?
After fine tuning your territory with our Country Leader, you then complete 6 hours of self paced learning. You will watch training sessions on anatomy with our physiotherapist, a midwife focusing on the impact of pregnancy and labour, and a marketing session on how to have the best start to your business. From there, you will attend either in person or live via Zoom a 3 day training focusing on babywearing and all the Kangatraining theory and practical learning so you can start your classes with ease.
Following this, you will complete an open book theory exam, a recorded babywearing exam and Kangatraining class.
Are there any ongoing requirements to maintain my certification?
Yes, you will need to keep your First Aid Certification up to date as well as complete the requirements for our Continuing Professional Development program to ensure best practices, develop skills and new opportunities as well as boost your confidence and feel supported within your business. We make this fun and easy to achieve!
