coaching certification

The Raise the Bar Initiative Coaching Certification is a standard we created that allows us to expand the Barbell Club program in more schools.

We know we cannot do this alone! By taking this course a person deepens their own knowledge in strength training and has a better understanding of the organization's philosophy to be an extension and representative of Raise the Bar Initiative. 

The Certification Course is dedicated to developing coaches using the curriculum developed completely by Raise the Bar Initiative. Coaches are mentors and leaders inside and out of the weightroom, and are responsible for coaching to proper form/technique, engaging with athletes, and creating a safe space for young girls to share vulnerabilities.

Our next Coaching Certification session is scheduled for

MAY 30 - MAY 31, 2026

8:30a-1:00p each day
