"Thorough!"

Keola Christian Fitness
& Alternative to Yoga
Strong in body. Stronger in faith.
The currency of Heaven is people! The Keola® community is passionate about Jesus, people, the Kingdom of God, freedom, truth, and healing. We share powerful tools for mind and body but, more than anything, Keola® is about building trust in a God Who can be trusted. This online instructor training course will establish you in both and equip you to share them with others.
We want to invite all into the relationship God is offering freely through Jesus and encourage those already in it to truly understand their value to God and RUN after everything He is calling them to by His Spirit. That starts with you! There are two ways to train: individual self-paced or group training that moves through the content together. Currently both training options have access to Keola® creator, Alli Becker, to ask questions to directly as you go through the material.

"This course was extremely thorough and detailed. It provided more information and resources than I expected. I feel better prepared to properly lead my students through various styles of Keola because of the demonstrations and exercises we were given to teach, correct, and modify each Keola position. I feel very supported as an instructor by Alli and the other instructors as well! I highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in teaching Christian mindful movement and meditation" -Adrienne
This Course is a Master of Masterclasses
So much bigger than self care.
Whether you are currently teaching fitness or just a lover of Jesus who feels led, you qualify for sharing His Gospel through Keola®. This course has everything you need and then some. It is designed to make any seeming mountains you have in your mind about teaching surmountable, giving you all the tools you need to safely lead someone into each position physically and be able to share Jesus as you teach. God can do much with your little "Yes!". He is, after all, THE Master!

"The Keola Instructor Training Course is very well done... The video demonstrations for each position are thorough, and they're put together in a format that is very easy to follow. The Scriptural focus videos are really helpful and give you some insight as to how each position name was so prayerfully brought into existence. I think my favorite thing about this course is that you feel like you're right there in a live teacher training. The videos clearly show Alli's professional expertise mixed in with some light-hearted banter, which is a lot of fun to watch and makes it feel even more genuine. No matter where you are on your spiritual or fitness journey, you will definitely find this course to be helpful."

Can I Teach Keola® In My Fitness Business?
Yes! Upon completion of this course and annual registration, you are licensed to use the Keola® trademarks and intellectual property in your existing business or as a ministry. You are an independent instructor, meaning you are not an employee of Keola Fit, LLC. You are your own boss with the freedom to offer your own live Keola® classes as led by the Boss, Jesus. Our community is available to help, encourage, and support each other in this Holy Spirit-driven endeavor.
Please note: If you are a studio or gym owner, each instructor must enroll in the course, but there is a group annual registration option available. Please contact [email protected] for a multi-student course discount and group registration information to determine what is best for your business.
Is This the Only Requirement To Teach Keola®?
No, you must register annually as an independent Keola® instructor to continue to maintain the license to use the Keola® intellectual property and trademarks. This helps keep track of who is authorized to use the intellectual property and trademarks, as well as offers some accountability to you. The annual registration fee of $120 includes membership to the private instructor/trainee FB group, monthly virtual Q & A's with ongoing help and continuing education, invitations to instructor only retreats & specialty events, inclusion in prayer by our prayer team, as well as some special surprise perks to help you thrive!
You must also agree to the Terms of Use found on the website. These include basic agreement with the Word of God, belief in the death, resurrection, and lordship of Jesus Christ, the only way to God.
Is This a Fitness Certification and How Long Is the Training?
This course contains in depth physical training and was previously (when in-person training) an ACE approved continuing education course, but it is not a fitness certification. It is a unique exercise option to add into your course offerings. The training contains approximately 25 hours of teaching content. There are two calendars to help you progress: Four Week Fast Track or Eight Week Option.
Though there are no current US requirements for fitness professionals, it is strongly recommended that you get a group fitness or personal training certification from a nationally recognized organization. Possibilities are shared within the course and some trainees have linked up to do this together outside of this training group. For those of you outside of the US, please check with your country/region for local laws and options on this topic.

NOTE: I recommend ALL interested instructors sign up for the Instructor Interest resource to learn more about both training pathways, have a chance to ask questions within the resource and any upcoming live Q&A's, and prayerfully choose the best timing and fit for you.
"I... appreciate the open communication between other instructors and the encouragement and vulnerability you fostered as a group trainer." - Katie
For athletic training only benefits you for a short season, but righteousness brings lasting benefit in everything; for righteousness contains the promise of life, for time and eternity. Faithful is the Word, and everyone should accept him!
(1 Timothy 4:8-9 TPT)
Keola®, developed from 1 Timothy 4:8, beautifully marries physical and spiritual training by uniquely sharing the Gospel and Word through movement to build body, mind, identity in Christ, and faith. As believers, we are called both to "Go!" (share the powerful truth of Jesus) and "Encourage!" the people who are His in faith and alignment with God's heart daily. May God use this and you to do just that!
