WELCOME TO GROOVE FX

groove fx is a stylised low impact aerobic workout where you choose the focus – cardio or choreography – as you perform house, hip hop, Latin and disco inspired routines to the hottest soundtrack. It captures the essence of dance, combines it with fun and delivers real fitness results.

GROOVE FX PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

From v11.1 onwards, each stomp fx release features two versions of the same workout.

groove fx provides basic, low impact, aerobic choreography which allows you to switch off your head and turn up the workout. The multi-peak format features a series of low and high intensity tracks with a light dusting of easy-to-achieve dance styling.

groove fx + (groove fx plus) is the more advanced option for those who like their dance up-front and full-throttle. Featuring the same soundtrack, we've created alternative moves-based routines to those songs marked with an *. This format builds on and progresses the simpler choreography of groove fx, providing both a cardio and cerebral workout.

groove fx and groove fx +: that's two workouts for the price of one.

Just choose which version of the choreography you want to perform - groove fx for those who want to work out hard to simple choreography or groove fx + for those who want the challenge of a more choreographed moves class.

All fitness fx programmes incorporate a concept we created called pro-choreography. Short for “progressive choreography”, it allows you to adapt and modify the groove fx choreography if you want to and in doing so, you’re able to utilise the teaching skills learnt during your exercise to music qualification. This approach lies in stark contrast to traditional pre-choreography which insists you just follow the notes, video or “script”; the outcome of which is the slow but steady demise of your teaching skills.

The choice is yours; teach any groove fx or groove fx + routine move-for-move as it appears in the video or change it to suit your own personal style or level of your class. It’s up to you.

All releases after and including groove fx v10.2 feature a continuous mix workout - the music doesn't stop and neither do we. It's designed to keep the class fluid, the energy high and target the cardiovascular system, leading to maximum fitness gains and fat loss. By working hard in each track and reducing the rest period between them, the groove fx workout moves you into the higher realms of aerobic training.

COMPONENTS OF THE COURSE

Course Content

The certificate course consists of two parts – a theory component and guidance in the practical techniques of groove fx.

To start, you study the theory component of the groove fx programme online. The content is presented in easy to manage sections which you work through at your own pace.

There are two ways in which you can avail yourself of our expert guidance in groove fx techniques. You may participate in one of our free scheduled training and assessment days which offer groove fx masterclasses, practical drills related to the online theory content and the opportunity to talk personally with our qualified tutors. Or you can simply study the free groove fx release included in this course which consists of a groove fx CD, choreography notes and access to the accompanying free choreography video downloads.

Course Assessment

Assessment for the theory component is via a multiple-choice test worksheet at the end of each of the self-paced sections. Upon successful completion of the online theory content, you progress to the practical assessment - teaching a track from the groove fx programme (excluding the Warm Up or Active Recovery tracks), either in person or by a video submission.

The face-to-face practical assessment sessions are conducted on the scheduled training and assessment days mentioned earlier. For a video submission of your practical assessment, simply select a track from the groove fx choreography downloads (excluding the Warm Up or Active Recovery tracks), learn it and film yourself teaching it according to the guidelines provided in the Assessment Guidance module of your online course. Once filmed, send your assessment in to us, on DVD, to be assessed.

In both the face-to-face and video assessment scenarios, the assessor will be looking at the quality of your cueing, choreography progressions, motivation and ability to teach to the level of the group and/or individuals within the group.

NOTE:

  • If you wish to book a scheduled groove fx training and assessment day, you must do so when you enrol. You will receive a groove fx release on the training and assessment day.
  • If you prefer to submit a video assessment and not to book a groove fx training and assessment day, a groove fx release will be posted to you automatically.
  • The online theory component must be completed BEFORE attending the training and assessment day or submitting your video assessment.
  • We maintain a telephone tutoring service during our business hours to assist participants through the course.
  • Certificates will be issued after both components of the course have been completed successfully.

Earning a Certificate in Teaching groove fx is one of the most positive steps you can take to ensure your professional and personal success as an Exercise Professional.
