  • I completed a total of 50 hours of shadowing with Shadow.Me.
  • I received on-the-job training where I, the student, learnt from a more experienced professional trainer by closely observing them in action and how they interacted with their client's.
  • I shadowed senior staff members through their 45 minute to 1 hour sessions, sharing best practices for engaging, teaching, guiding and showing all different clients how to perform each and every exercise.
  • The benefits of shadowing will provide me with real-world experience in various fitness field's.
  • It's focus is on skill development and transfer; due to the length of my shadowing experience , I was able to pick up some of the essential skills required for the job.
