Hello everybody,
I have been instructing hot yoga for a good amount of time now and I have recently been thinking about incorporating my knowledge of yoga with that of personal training. As I am going through the steps trying to figure out how to become a personal trainer I have a lot of questions in mind. Does anybody here work as a personal trainer as well as a yoga instructor? How do you like doing both? As I am looking at all of the available personal training certifications it is very overwhelming. Is there a certification that matches best with the knowledge you have as an instructor of yoga? I have been observing personal trainers at one of my local gyms and I’m trying to develop a unique sense of style due to my background in yoga. Any help would be great about how to go about becoming a personal trainer as well as the available certifications and any other tips you guys might have!

Okay, so for the last 24 hours or so I have been doing a lot of research on various personal training certifications to try to find one that would be right for me and my experience with yoga. It seems some have slight emphasis on corrective exercise, power training, regular strength training and flexibility. Obviously I think the ones that have an emphasis on flexibility would be more up my alley. Would you guys think? This article talks about the top 10 personal training certifications in the industry. Have you guys heard of any of these? do you recommend one over the other? Any help would be amazing! Thanks for reading
