It is good advice to try to get certified by an employer. My cousin got hired by a pilates studio who paid lots of money for her to get Stott certified (including airfare to the training etc.) back when pilates teachers were still uncommon. In her case, the studio was just opening, and they hired her because she naturally had the body they wanted people to think you get from pilates, so they paid to train her and let people come to their own conclusions why she looked the way she does. I think this is more common than most people would realize.

I have been a trainer for many years. Worked in a gym as a trainer, trained personal trainers. I also got certified to teach spinning and yoga but realized I'm more of a "one on one" person than a teach a class person. Since having kids I had my own training business, very part time as I suck at marketing. I got certified as a health coach a few years ago and have done that on my own since then, again very part time due to my marketing issues. Now that my kids are a bit older I'm looking to get a health coach position with an insurance company. I have a degree in psychology and exercise science as well as being NASM certified, so I think I'm a good catch. Just need to find the right position for me (hours etc.).
