The “Must Know” Basics for Working with Seniors and Arthritis

This class will teach you what you need to know for the most rapidly growing segment of our population. A 3 hour lecture on the demographics, objectives, safety concerns and senior/arthritis specific moves is followed by a 1 hour demo in the pool emphaisizing Anchored Aquatix. Become prepared to effectively and safely handle these fun loving older adults.

How it Works

Register for the Distance Certification by completing registration, submitting a copy of current CPR, and submitting payment of $160 (shipping is not included if outside the continental US states).

You receive the manuals, study guide, 2 DVD’s of Senior Fitness/Aquatic Arthritis lecture, and DVD of aquatic class and Anchored Aquatic Dictionary, and a DVD of the Study guide review and another class.

You review the study materials and videos. The written test is mailed to the proctor you indicated on your registration form. You arrange with your proctor to take the written test. The proctor will be supplied with an envelope to return the test to A-PAI.

YOU MUST ARRANGE TO HAVE SOMEONE VIDEO TAPE YOUR PRACTICAL. A 20 minute routine showing a warm up, 2 pattern routine, arthritis exercises, and warm down.

You mail the video, a copy of your current CPR and a copy of a photo ID to A-PAI.

Your tests will be graded and the results sent back within 4 weeks. Retests of either the practical or written can be done for an additional fee.

Once you have registered and we have mailed the materials, there are no refunds unless there is a medical problem.
