Newest Accreditation Follows Similar Move by ACE Honoring Continuing Education for the Acclaimed Balance Board!
LOS ANGELES (March 16, 2016) – The StrongBoard Balance® education Course is now accredited for continuing education units for fitness professionals by the National Academy of Sports Medicine, or NASM, and Aerobics and Fitness Association of America, or AFAA. The action follows a similar move by American Council on Exercise (ACE), which accredited the eduation course in January.
The accreditations give personal trainers and instructors the necessary eight continuing education units from NASM and AFAA, which helps keep their education in good standing, while offering access to training techniques and vital information for one of the newest fitness tools available.
The course, now available in Los Angeles, will educate fitness professionals to train and instruct using the critically acclaimed balance board. Moreover, it will give participants the opportunity to add StrongBoard Balance training to their resume in order to teach individuals and groups how to benefit from the balance board, which was named a top training tool by ACE and the Best Buy Stability Product for 2016 by FitProf.net.
In an effort to keep the course personal and intimate, there are only 20 spaces available in each class. Anyone may participate in the course, but to receive continuing education credits, participants must already hold a fitness license from an accredited organization.

The StrongBoard Balancee Education Course includes a Training Course Manual and eight hours of comprehensive instruction on key elements of balance training. Attendees will learn to develop a curriculum to execute exercises, assessing clients to create a suitable training program, identifying and describing positions on the balance board, and more.
