Calling Military Spouses!

Hey to all you military spouses out there, want to become a personal trainer? I just learned that through the new Military Spouse Career Advancement Account program - MyCAA- you can receive up to $6000 of financial assistance to help pay for fitness certification through the American Council on Exercise (acefitness.org).

For more info, including eligibility, you can visit the Department of Defense's MyCAA Web page on the Military OneSource Web site at https://aiportal.acc.af.mil/mycaa/default.aspx.

I can tell you, it certainly doesn't cost $6000 to get certified, so you could pursue quite a bit of continuing education or a few other certifications too, or attend a conference! Good luck and have fun!

I will always emphasize balance, balance, balance - and I don't mean on a stability ball, although that's important - I mean life balance. Fitness is important-in it's proper place. So please, check out the links and photos and I'll be posting some fun info shortly!
