What do you post on social media? How do you think it portrays you as a fitness professional, wellness coach, health coach, or yoga instructor? Bringing your thought process around to “what is important to me” on social media can help you not only figure out what type of content to develop but also help you build your audience. These days, consumers want to know more about their instructors and what they value. If you think about it, social media can act as those small superficial interactions you have at the gym with potential clients, and that sometimes lead to bigger investments in your services. Using your social media as this medium can help expand your audience to a global scale and help you focus your attention on the type of content.

In this episode of the Balance Instructor Podcast, host Tyler Valencia, PhD(c) goes over how he’s been viewing social media and some strategies he’s been using to grow his audience. One of the most useful tools on Instagram right now is Reels. On the platform, you can find free templates that you can integrate your content with or find audio files that you can save later. Creating Reels has become easier than ever and this allows you to develop more engaging content.

EP 23 - Showing What’s Important On Social Media

You just got certified within the health & fitness industry as a personal trainer or group exercise instructor, but what do you do now? How do you get hired? Where should you start? These are all questions that entry-level professionals have because this is not addressed in certification education. In this episode of the KIPS Podcast, host Tyler Valencia talks about three different areas for entry-level professionals: getting another certification, experience, and the power of online. These three areas can help your decision to enter this competitive industry.

The last topic in this podcast is the power of online training. Tyler shares why this area should not be discounted and why entry-level professionals can gain experience teaching online. Starting online can help you build a client list, nurture your communication skills, and help you turn your passion into a career. Performing online workouts comes without barriers such as proximity to your training location, pricing because you set your own prices, and, most importantly, helping you get started without the overly competitive nature of working in a facility.

If you’re a seasoned veteran within the industry, what tips can you share from your experiences so far?
