Become a Steady and Strong Instructor
Do you have a passion to support older people in your community?
As a freelance Steady and Strong instructor, you will receive:
- A contribution towards your training qualification
- A financial contribution to setting up your classes
- Marketing and promotional support with free posters, flyers and social media advertising
- A community of practice with two annual professional development workshops
- Networking opportunities between NHS and community instructors.
The programme offers three routes to join our workforce of freelance Steady and Strong instructors across the county. The three options have been designed to reach older people in Hampshire and ensure they are supported by the right professional, in the right programme, at the right time for them.
My class members love the fact that they are learning evidence-based movements whilst dancing to their favourite music. They enjoy practising at home and telling me about their little weekly wins in strength and balance.
