Wellness Coaching

[Brian A.]

I've recently been introduced to the field of Wellness Coaching. A couple of the trainers I work with, along with our general manager, just completed the Wellcoaches program (What Is Coaching) a couple of months ago and have begun to work on introducing it as a service at our gym. After listening to their explanation of the course and attending a lecture on wellness coaching by Mark Nutting, I have enrolled and am currently in the third week of the program. I find the coaching strategies that they present to be insightful and I'm looking forward to learning these techniques and incorporating them into my practice.

If anyone has gone through this type of coaching program, do have any experience or advice in regards to introducing this program into a facility? Also any advice on approaching current training clients that you feel would benefit from this program.
