Welcome to the learning management system for the Mindbody Wellness course that leads to the 66-hour BWYQ Level 3 Technical Specialist in Adapting and Developing Mindbody Exercises for Older Adults qualification.
This course is divided into two units:
- the theory or knowledge unit (Unit 1) and
- the practical unit (Unit 2) when the learners will be working face-to-face with the tutor either in-person or on Zoom.
For those of you who are keen to proceed as soon as possible (and seriously you could get Unit 1 done in the 4 -6 weeks prior to the 7th February start date for the practical sessions, if you want to wait until after Christmas!), we now have some Unit 1 assignments live on the learning management system. This starts with information you will need about older adults, what happens to their bodies as they age and how exercise and physical activity can be beneficial (1.1) It then moves on to defining and identifying the scope of Mindbody Exercises for Older Adults and how the exercises can be adapted and developed (1.2) and then goes on to how to be professional as a specialist teacher for older adults as liaise with other professionals and create a marketing plan for your eventual classes. The Knowledge Unit concludes with how to act professionally as a specialist teacher and how you will market your classes.
Then we start the practical Unit 2 on 7 February!
