Pro Certification

Pietra Fitness Pro Certification was designed for instructors looking to expand their knowledge and skill set to an advanced level. Through various workshops, exercises, and activities, we will assist the instructor in breaking open the deeper meaning of the Pietra Fitness apostolate and help to focus the Pro Cert instructor on their mission within Pietra Fitness. We use goal setting techniques, as well as review health and wellness principles to assist in longevity as an instructor.

Pro Certification is a three-stage process:‍

1. Module work that you do at home. This includes time that you will buddy up with another participant.
2. The required virtual/in-person training.
3. Work done at home after the training.

We hold one pro certification per year as long as we have enough participants. We will announce the dates, and send out a registration form to gauge the interest.

Pre-requisite: Must be a certified Pietra Fitness Instructor for at least 1 year, and actively teaching classes and participating in the instructor community.

Pro Certification includes:

• All Course materials: manual, Searching for and Maintaining Peace by Fr. Jacques Philippe, and training videos,
• Review Worksheets
• A "buddy": someone also going through the training
• Final Exam and practical (85% is required to pass - a $75.00 retest fee will apply.)‍
• Upon passing, you will receive a certificate as well as 6.0 physical and 4.0 spiritual CECs
