What is Revelation Wellness Instructor Training?
our purpose
The purpose of Revelation Wellness Instructor Training is to raise up and send out disciples of Jesus Christ who desire to live healthy, whole, and integrated lives in mind, body, soul, and Spirit.
Revelation Wellness believes that every body holds a story (good or bad). A Revelation Wellness Instructor is passionate about helping people embrace their stories as they move towards physical and spiritual health, healing, and wholeness. Since how we use our bodies is an expression of what we believe in our hearts, what we do with our bodies can’t be ignored, nor can it be shamed.
All Revelation Wellness Instructors learn how to provide safe and inspiring places for people to love God, get healthy, be whole, and love others so they can become the people they were created to be – which is more than a number on a scale, an age on a birth certificate, or the size of their jeans.
All instructors learn how to teach a safe and effective Revelation Fitness or RevX class where physical movement becomes a get-to and not a have-to. They also become certified facilitators of The Wellness Revelation, an 8-week book/curriculum study designed to help people lose what weighs them down so they are free to love God, themselves, and others.
Whether leading people through The Wellness Revelation or moving them in a Revelation Fitness or RevX class, Revelation Wellness Instructors are missionaries of hope in what can be a dry and weary wellness and fitness world.
