Teen Fit Certification

$40 One-Time Fee

Age Requirements:

The certification is for 13–15-year-olds

(12-year-olds who will turn 13 within 2 weeks of doing the certification may also participate)

What does this certification entail?

This certification will educate and prepare teens on the proper usage of the Kroc Center fitness equipment. The course will cover basic safety, fitness etiquette, resistance training, cardiovascular training, and program design. Upon completion, teens will be given a special permit card to allow them to use both cardio and weight equipment. An adult/guardian must be present in the building with the teen, but does not need to be with the teen while they use the fitness equipment.

The class will be led by one of our Kroc Center Personal Trainers and takes approximately one hour to complete. To sign up, fill out the Program Enrollment form and pay at the Kroc Welcome/Control Desk. A Personal Trainer will contact you to set up your session.
