NLP Performance Specialist Intern Testimonials


Aaron Runner, PSU, Intern Summer 2009

Goalie, PSU Hockey
I have recommended NLP to anyone looking for an internship. It was hands down the best experience that I could have gotten. It directly applies to my life goals and anyone looking to become a fitness instructor or strength & conditioning coach will discover the same.

The environment was professional in every sense of the word but it was also laid back enough to feel comfortable in my development as an intern and a professional.  I've applied everything that I have learned. I am ahead of everyone in my classes because of the things I have learned.

I was able to get real coaching experience in a very short amount of time.  I learned how to efficiently manage my time and my resources in order to give the athletes and clients a better experience.I loved being able to take the lead role in coaching. I was a little nervous at first but it was very rewarding to be able to develop coaching and efficient client management skills. I also enjoyed learning the administrative side of the business. 
 
General Internship Description:

Participants will be working with athletes and everyday populations in a controlled group environment in a 10,000sf performance training center.  Our facility is not a commercial gym.

Internships may be tailored to specific program requirements. Interns must consistently contribute a minimum of 10-15 hours/week. Hours may be set up according to program requirements. Generally, interns are required to work between 120-180 total hours to be accepted into the NLP internship program.


Each intern receives:
  • Comprehensive training on coaching techniques, program administration, and program design. 
  • 160-page coaching manual
  • Instructional staff training videos on how to perform every aspect of the EADP 
Interns leave knowing much, much more than those who have not been part of NLP. Interns are responsible for weekly assignments and progressive learning.
