For personal trainers and coaches
You can’t out-program a body that won’t move.
Soreness, pain and locked joints cap what any program can deliver. Your clients stall, and it reads as your programming.
Education that pays for itself
Most graduates charge $100 to $150
Sessions to cover tuition
20
Added per year
$34,560
At this pace your Early Bird tuition of $2300 + tax is back in about 4 weeks. Most graduates recover their investment within 3 to 6 months.
Already booked solid? Then the number that matters is not volume. It is what happens to retention when clients stop stalling.
Talk it through first
A short conversation about the clients you train now and where you want this to go. You leave the call knowing whether FST is the right move for you, and if it is not, we will say so.
Fascia Stretch Therapy™ Level 1 reaches the part of the problem training cannot. Traction and decompression at the joint capsule, not another set. Run it as its own appointment, or add it to the sessions you already coach.
Five days, taught in Canada, by the institute that created Fascia Stretch Therapy.
What FST adds
01
The mobility and pain piece that was capping every client who plateaued on you, no matter how the block was written.
02
Every trainer in the building sells the same hour. Almost none of them can do this one.
03
Range of motion changes inside one session. That is what brings people back and what they tell people about.
04
A tier of recovery work your gym almost certainly does not offer yet, at $100 to $150 a session.
05
Athletes, teams, tournaments. Recovery work opens doors that general training does not.
06
Most graduates earn the tuition back in three to six months, on the clients they already have.
Why fit pros specifically
You are competent, you are dedicated, and you plan good sessions. The thing stopping them is not in the programming.
They arrive sore from the last session, so they never train at the intensity the plan assumes
Restricted joints cap their range, so the movement never actually looks like the movement
You scale it back, or you push through it, and neither one addresses why
They stall, they lose faith in the process, and it reads as your programming
Traction and decompression at the joint capsule, working the fascia rather than pulling on a muscle.
Then the body unlocks. They hit a full squat, they reach overhead, and the programming starts working again.
“Fantastic value that can be implemented and applied right off the bat to anyone.”
Why nobody taught you this
Certification taught you programming, progression and load. It did not teach you fascia or joint capsules, because when most of these courses were written fascia was still treated as an envelope that muscles attach to.
Meanwhile your clients kept arriving sore and stiff, and you did what everyone does: a warm up, some mobility drills, a foam roller. The demand arrived without waiting for anyone to teach you the trained version of it.
It was never a gap in your ability. It was a gap in what there was to learn.
Up to 24 students, 4 instructors. They do not watch your hands, they feel them, sequence after sequence, and you feel theirs.
The question fit pros ask quietly
Whether you have to overhaul your practice to use it. Whether you wait a year to see anything. That is the part most people wonder about before they commit, and it is usually the reason they wait. Mike sprinkles it into his sessions after the workout. In his first week back he had five sessions in, the next eight weeks booked, and a demo at a tennis tournament.
It folds into what you already do, and it opens doors to rooms you were not in before.
The five days
This is not a weekend introduction to assisted stretching. Monday to Thursday runs 9am to 6pm, Friday 8am to 5pm. You are on the table about as often as you are standing beside it.
Pre-course video library. Our founders demonstrating on a skeleton and on real bodies. Finished at least one week out, so you walk in already familiar with the material.
Foundations, table mechanics, lower body sequences and the hip capsule.
Advanced lower body and core, and the fascial lines that connect them.
Upper body, shoulder capsule, neck and arms.
Full body integration, dynamic assessment and treatment.
You give and receive a full 60-minute session, filmed for your own marketing, then a business segment and graduation.
Ongoing support. Post-course video library, online community, webinars, and a check in from our team through the year.
What you leave with
The support does not end at graduation. Graduates keep reaching out years later, and we keep answering.
Course locations
We run Level 1 across the country, west to east. Pick your city and date at checkout.
Burlington is the Toronto area course, 45 minutes from downtown.
On timing
Level 1 runs a handful of times a year across the whole country. Once a city’s date passes, the next one there is usually months out. Therapists write to us asking when we will be back.
Another year of watching the same clients stall is not a neutral option. It is another year of them believing it is the program.
Practitioners from across Canada share how FST certification changed their practice.
