In minnesota can a person give out nutrition/fitness advice as a type of consultant if he/she does not posess a certification in Nutrition or personal trainer. I’m contemplating become a diet/exercise consultant and I’m taking some courses, but these will not get me certified. I’m just wondering legally if this can be done without the certifications. I know in most states you don’t need the certifications.

I’m getting certified in March per my trainers suggestion. I really want to do group fitness and have for a long time but I didn’t study a health related field in school. I’m worried that I won’t be hired anywhere because of my lack of experience.

I am a certified personal trainer in the Baltimore area and I’m looking for more marketing ideas to draw in customers. Currently, I have a fitness newsletter, a website in developmental stages, and a rewards program for clients who offer me referrals. What are some other ideas that would catch your eye to work with me?
I do in home and online training

Most people that go to the gym know that most gym have group fitness classes like pilates, cardio kickboxing, step aerobics, yoga, etc. In order to teach these group fitness classes does one have to pass some sort of exam or certification? And are you certified to teach all the classes or just one type like step aerobics?

I want to join LA fitness here in miami. I went on the website and they do not list any prices. I like to work out at home, but I think I would enjoy a wider range of physical activity. Does anyone know how much I should expect to pay when I sign up, and possibly how much it will be monthly?
