Our team has worked for many of the biggest names in Group Fitness in the past and our whole motivation for creating SH1FT Fitness was to develop an Instructor solution that was super high quality but at the fraction of the cost of competitor offerings. We have managed to achieve this in three ways;
Our whole business is delivered digitally. This means we can scale quickly and reach Instructors all over the world without expensive overheads.
Because SH1FT is run by Instructors, we have carefully prioritised how we spend our money based on what is most important to you. For example, our monthly workout releases aren’t huge, glitzy productions - in fact, they are very modest and our cast is made up of friends, family and SH1FT Instructors - not fitness models.
We prioritise our most loyal Instructors by giving away incredible value for our ‘all in’ options. You’re putting your trust in us - and that deserves some recognition!
You’ll find that everything we do is raw and real but our workouts are up there as the best in the industry…and that’s what allows us to keep our prices competitive and more money in your pocket.

From the date you sign up to the SH1FT training course in any format, you have 30 days to run through the training and try our workouts. Within the first 30 days, if for any reason you decide it’s not right for you, please email info@sh1ftfitness.com and we will give you a full no questions asked refund. This includes refunding your training fee AND any subscription fees you have already paid.
-
No. It’s one of the reasons clubs love us! All SH1FT Fitness formats are 100% licence free for clubs. If you want to learn more about bringing SH1FT to your club, please check out our fitness facilities page.
-
The SH1FT App has been created with all the features you need to deliver a class with ease. Check out the ‘Meet the SH1FT App’ section earlier on this page for a video which walks you through exactly how it works.
-
Our training course is self-paced which means you can complete it at a time, place and speed that suits you. You can start the course whenever you like and on average the course will take you 3 -6 hours to complete depending on how quickly you work through the material.
-
No - your trainee status remains active forever so you can take as long as you need.
Most Instructors sign up to the SH1FT BUNDLE training offer (all formats) to take advantage of the large discount, but then they will complete each format in their own time. This could be in a week, a month or even across years. -
This will vary from person to person but we estimate you will spend up to 90% less time preparing for a class. How? Our App structures the classes for you and eliminates the need for memorisation plus we provide short overview videos to act as a ‘cheat-sheet’ guide. When we release our new workouts, many of our Instructors are already teaching them to their classes that very same day, having just run through the workout once.
-
Complete freedom!! We give you the foundation to create your own unique group fitness experience, without restrictions. You’ll get access to our full back catalogue of workouts from day one and we allow you to customise workouts. So you have the ability to choose what workouts you think your class will love that day - maybe a CARDIO HIIT style workout, a L1FT upper body weights session or perhaps a hybrid of the two. You know your class best, and you are empowered to make that choice.
-
If you are a SQUAD member in two or more SH1FT Fitness formats, you have the ability to merge together different formats to create a completely unique class. This is all done via the App - you download the workout combinations you want and sort them together in a playlist. For example, if you have a 60 minute class slot to fill you could do 10 mins of M1ND Mobility followed by a 30 minute BL1TZ HIIT session and finish with 20 mins of L1FT Upper Body Strength - the opportunities are endless! And don’t worry if this sounds complicated - we promise it’s simple and we provide very thorough guidance on how to do this.
-
Not at all! You definitely don’t need to be a tech expert to use the SH1FT App - it is incredibly easy to use and we provide detailed walk-throughs of the App to get you started. We regularly receive feedback from Instructors on how easy the App is to use. But if you are concerned at all, you can utilise the money back guarantee and try SH1FT for 30 days - this will be more than enough time to ensure you are comfortable with using the App.

No. We recommend complying with any industry standards in your location and having the relevant insurance. However, it is not a requirement to have any pre-requisites to sign up to SH1FT.

Yes. SH1FT Virtual Coach Training is available worldwide and we have Instructors in 41 countries and counting! Training is only currently available in English, so we recommend having a proficient level of English to take part in the Course. But once you are qualified, you can teach SH1FT Fitness formats in any language you like, in any country of your choosing!

At SH1FT Fitness, we have always allowed our Instructors to choose their own playlists to pair with our workouts - music that suits yours and your class members' style. Having the freedom to choose is something that is time and again voted in the top three reasons why Instructors love teaching our formats and we always want you to be in control of this.
But, we also know that many Instructors would love support to find awesome, royalty free music solutions. So we create optional licence free playlists for every new SH1FT Fitness release via our music partner, Pure Energy Go.
Pure Energy Go are a leading voice in the fitness music scene and what attracted us to partner with them is their focus on sourcing only the highest quality DJs, and their fresh, motivating mixes that fit the SH1FT Fitness ethos well.
Every album we release is available to anyone with a Pure Energy Go membership. Albums are made up of original tracks created by top DJ's which are all completely licence free so you can use them to teach on or offline.
Please note the only exception to this is our cycle format R1DE, where all music is included as part of your subscription and all tracks are completely rights included - so you can teach R1DE on or offline, without worry.
