Stroller fitness classes are a fun way for parents to workout with their baby. It is an opportunity to get to know other moms and dads and get in shape. Starting a stroller fitness class is a good way to make money, get exercise and help other parents get in shape. To get started making money with stroller fitness classes follow the steps below.

Instructions

Difficulty: Challenging

1. Contact your local city hall to ask about the type of business license you may need. The type of license you will need will vary depending on your city, if you are running the business out of your home and if you have any employees.
2. Decide on a name for your classes. Come up with something with stroller in the title, so moms and dads will know immediately what type of fitness class it is.
3. Pick a location to hold classes. Beaches, parks and walking trails are good choices. Check with your local city hall to find out about any limitations or regulations when holding a class in a public location.
4. Get a fitness certification. The American Council on Exercise is one of many fitness organizations which offer an exam to earn a fitness instructor certification. There are some organizations, such as Stollercize, which offer workshops to learn to teach stroller fitness classes.
5. Set up a price list. Have prices for individual classes. Also have a package deal which when purchased is a better value. This will provide an incentive for participants to sign up for several classes.
6. Market your stroller fitness class. Advertise in free parent publications. Their rates tend to be cheaper than a newspaper. Develop a website and offer coupons for a free trial class that can be printed at home. Attend health fairs to spread the word about classes.
7. Partner with a local fitness center. Call the manager and explain your stroller fitness class. Ask if you can print flyers to have at the gym.
