teaching virtually

Group Fitness Instructors all around the world have been put in a difficult position in 2020, we’ve all been either forced to shut up shop indefinitely, or move to teaching virtually - a situation that was uncomfortable and way out of most Instructors comfort zones. 

Today I’m interviewing two Instructors and friends Jen and AJ who both jumped into teaching virtually after COVID hit. They each have very different teaching backgrounds and strategies for virtual - but both are absolutely killing it! This episode is jam packed full of inspiration, and guidance to help you succeed in the virtual Group Fitness world. 

We’ve also created a great downloadable guide for this episode which gives you the top tips that Jen and AJ share in the episode and well as further details on their virtual set up and equipment recommendations. Check out the below for your copy.

Donald's goal is to be the most welcoming school in America. If kids know they are wanted and welcome, they will be socially and mentally better and happier.

Teachers, by nature, are planners, but with the times right now, the country is early in the virus and late to be planning the fall schedule of virtual and in-person classes.

How do we allow visitors to our school, keep kids protected and safe, and still be welcoming?

Donald walks through the "how" we do things may change, but the "why" we do them is what matters.

The amount of use of screen time by students could have some long term effects of having it readily available without a purpose of using it. How often are we intentional with our time when we are using screens?
