Feeling like you need a change of pace and embark on a new journey? Maybe it is time for something new and different. Regardless of your reason, now is a perfect time for you to get studying!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BCRPA Certified Yoga Instructor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To become a certified instructor in BC, you will need to follow these simple steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Study and Prepare for Your Fitness Theory Exam<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you do anything, you should prepare and study for your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fhpedu.com\/Blog\/10-fitness-theory-exam-topicsweightings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"10 Fitness Theory Exam Topics &amp; Weightings\">BCRPA Fitness Theory exam<\/a>. Some people may opt to challenge the exam directly. However, it is ideal to understand what is on the Fitness Theory curriculum before taking the exam. Even if you understand anatomy and physiology, you may not be able to answer all of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fhpedu.com\/Blog\/bcrpa-fitness-theory-questions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"BCRPA Fitness Theory Questions You Will See\">questions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where we come in! We understand that it can be challenging to get started in a new field. Therefore, we created the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhpedu.com\/courses\/bc-fitness-theory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.fhpedu.com\/courses\/bc-fitness-theory\">BC Fitness Theory course<\/a>&nbsp;just for you. It is a comprehensive, straightforward course with hundreds of questions designed to help you understand the important concepts and terminology. We have a free-trial component as well \u2013 why not give it a shot before you enroll?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Create an Account with BCRPA<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before registering to take your exam, make sure you create an account on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20210212195520\/https:\/\/www.thefitnessregistry.com\/login\/user-account\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Registry<\/a>. This is where you will manage your fitness leader account. If you need help, read the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefitnessregistry.com\/media\/22275\/theregistry-usermanual-07-19.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.thefitnessregistry.com\/media\/22275\/theregistry-usermanual-07-19.pdf\">user manual<\/a>&nbsp;for more info.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Take the Exam!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have completed our course and feel comfortable taking the exam, you will need to purchase the exam. The total cost is $110 (inclusive of the $80 exam fee + $30 ProctorU fee). Go to \u201cExam History,\u201d then \u201cPurchase Exam.\u201d Payments can be made via credit card. Soon you will receive an email about how to book your exam session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just find a quiet space, at home or anywhere without anyone around! One thing to note \u2013 you can only take the exam on your desktop or laptop; other devices are not supported. You will need to make sure that your camera, microphone, and speakers are functional. Do not forget to check your internet connection too! In case you do not know, the exam will be online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Obtain CPR and Standard First Aid Certification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the very minimum, you will need CPR level A and either Standard First Aid certification or Emergency First Aid certification. You could do this before or after you pass your Fitness Theory exam. Once you pass, record this into your Registry account. You will need it during your specialty module.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Buy Your First Year Registration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Congrats! You are one step closer to become a Yoga Instructor! You will need to purchase your first-year registration for $109. From the day you pass your Fitness Theory exam, you will have 1 full year to register. Afterwards, you will need to pick a specialty module to complete (i.e. Yoga Fitness). If you do not register within that time period, you will need to redo your exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yoga Fitness Instructor Specialty Module<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, you will need to complete your specialty module. You will need to enroll in a course and complete an instructor competency exam (ICE) and a practicum.
