WELCOME TO AAAI/ISMA YOUR PREMIER FITNESS CERTIFICATION & EDUCATION FAMILY

The American Aerobic Association International and International Sports Medicine Association or AAAI/ISMA Fitness is the premier international fitness instructor certification program. Whether you’re new to the fitness industry or looking to advance your career, we have the right training and certification programs to take you to the next level.We understand fitness professionals and the demand for personalized training required by fitness facilities to ensure proper education in sports related exercise, nutrition, and medicine. Our world-class team of professional educators have decades of experience in all fields of fitness related activities.

AAAI/ISMA’s goal is to help fitness instructors teach safe and effective classes or training sessions.

AAAI/ISMA is currently one of the largest and most recognized fitness certification associations in the world, with over 180,000 members worldwide. However, size is not as important as the quality and high standards with which we hold our company and staff. We are very proud that all of our faculty trainers must have a Master’s Degree, Ph. D. or M. D. in order to teach our certification programs. Our certification system is modeled after a University educational system in which the students purchase study materials and then attend an inter-active educational workshop. There is a theoretical and practical component of each certification.

AAAI/ISMA workshops run for one day for eight hours except Yoga which is two days. The program consists of a mix of workout and lecture and will have a written and practical exam at the end of the session. The cost of the certification is $99 for all workshops with the exception of Yoga and Mind/Body which are 2 day workshops and are $150.

Certification Renewal Procedures:

Your initial certification is good for a two-year period. After the initial two years, you must renew your certification every year. The purpose of certification renewal is to encourage our members to continue to stay educated in the newest research and techniques in the field, and to re-affirm the fitness safety principles that they learned in their initial certification.
