STAGES CYCLING UNIVERSITY
Created by and for indoor cycling instructors, Stages Cycling University certifications and workshops cover a wide range of topics designed to help instructors level up their indoor cycling coaching skills.
“As a studio owner, I am PROUD to have my instructors take the certification, because I know Stages Cycling University will deliver a complete and accurate educational course that will empower my instructors to deliver high quality rides that will elevate the guest experience.”
INDIVIDUAL AND STUDIO CERTIFICATIONS
Stages Cycling University offers flexible solutions for both individual instructors wanting to get certified and for studio teams seeking education.
Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been coaching for decades, these interactive courses will challenge you and help you design extraordinary class experiences!
All SCU courses are accredited with ACE.
WHICH CERTIFICATION IS RIGHT FOR YOU OR YOUR STUDIO?
Choosing the right certification for yourself or your team will set your studio up for success.
We recommend beginners start with Stages ONE and then add either Stages BEATS or Stages POWER (or both) depending upon which types of classes will be taught. More advanced instructors may be able to jump directly to Stages BEATS or Stages POWER.
With our NEW online options, every instructor can quickly and easily get education in the specific areas they choose.
