TACFIT Level 1 Field Instructor Certification

Open to new instructor candidates, those who need to recertify, or anyone who simply wants to deepen their knowledge of the TACFIT system.

Becoming a Field Instructor means not only becoming certified in TACFIT, but joining a global team of people who have the same passion, values ​​and training protocols as you. Through this certification, we want our students to prepare themselves with a deep understanding of our systems to better pass the same on to their athletes and clients.

The Level 1 certification is open to everyone and everyone is welcome to take part. The seminars regularly have participants from all over the world, from all walks of life, careers and backgrounds and with different levels of competence. EVERYONE has a challenge that they overcome. There is not a person alive who does not face a challenge. In Level 1 you will learn the tools to face and overcome these challenges and, if you are on the professional path, how to help others do the same. Whether you intend to teach or not, if you are ready to learn about the core movements and tools, this certification is for you.

Whether you are one of our trainers in corporate health clubs, corrective exercise clinics or cross-training boxing, or a federally assigned trainer for a military unit, federal agency, fire department, or just a capable and willing civilian, this is the ideal way to get started at TACFIT to take part. Learn to use the tools, create alternatives, adapt the mechanics to changing needs, and adapt the programming to optimize your resources and results. No other certification has invested so much front-end intelligence into the design of its content, presentation and results. We provide the best trainers, which is why many government agencies recruit them from our ranks. Even if you are already a good trainer, we can help you become an even better one.
