The first Pole Fitness Alliance (also known as PoleMoves) certification course was created in 2008. The original creator of the trainings, Rebekah Hennes has also been certified as a personal trainer, group trainer and nutritionist for decades which gave her tremendous insight into creating a comprehensive pole instructor certification course. The PFA trainings were the first pole certification course approved by the American Council on Exercise. The PFA was also the first to represent pole fitness at the American Council on Exercise Summit (in 2012) and was instrumental in getting pole dancing added to the list of acceptable continuing education courses by the American Council on Exercise. Not only are we approved by ACE, we are also approved by NASM, AFAA, SINEFYD, CEDPRO and Entrenador Pro.
Our trainings have been refined and tweaked for over a fifteen years to create what we believe is the most comprehensive pole certification course available anywhere. We understand that everyone is unique which is why we offer a variety of formats for our training courses. In addition to offering live group certification courses, we began offering online and virtual certification years before COVID-19 made it a necessity. We have had the time to ensure that there were no sacrifices made with our online trainings. And, in fact, our students really enjoy taking their time with the course without losing the guidance of their Master Trainers who are with them one on one, every step of the way throughout the course.
Whether you wish to train with us live, online or a mixture of both, we provide you with comprehensive courses that provide you with all the knowledge you need to teach amazing classes! And once you pass your certification, we give you a collectible PFA member card and other swag to show the world your accomplishments and give you access to the PFA library of instructor tools - bonus moves, class plans, choreography and more!
At the PFA, our goal is your success!
