Congratulations on completing your WATERinMOTION® Certification Training!
To maintain the high standards expected of our WATERinMOTION® instructors, the next step is to submit your assessment video.

• You have 30 days from the date of completing your training to film yourself teaching track 1, track 2, and track 3 of the WATERinMOTION® choreography.
• If 30 days is not enough, there is a $75 fee for any assessment extension.
• To request an extension, please go to www.waterinmotion.com/extension.

Preparing for your video assessment:

• To help you memorize the WATERinMOTION® choreography, it is best to begin teaching WATERinMOTION® immediately.  This will prepare you for your filming.
• To prepare for your filming, please refer to these worksheets: DOWNLOAD RIPPLE REFERENCE SHEET HERE | DOWNLOAD CUEING WORKSHEET HERE
• If you work at a currently licensed WATERinMOTION® facility, team-teaching is recommended since this will be a good way to ease into the process.  If you do not teach at a licensed WATERinMOTION® facility, you can still begin instructing the program.
• Only instructors teaching at a licensed WATERinMOTION® facility are allowed to continue to receive the quarterly WATERinMOTION® music, choreography and education kits through Wautoship.  Wautoship is our automated online digital system for video and choreography distribution. For more information, go to www.waterinmotion.com/wautoship.
• All instructors certified through WATERinMOTION® (regardless if they are affiliated with a licensed facility) are permitted to teach the program release (video and choreography) that they trained on.
• Should an instructor assist us with licensing their facility, they are eligible to receive Wautoship FREE for one (1) year. Visit www.waterinmotion.com/referral.html

 

Filming your video assessment:

• When you are teaching, looking at your notes and/or anything that can be considered a visual aid, or at another person is strictly prohibited. If you use any form of notes on deck you will receive a NO for REMEMBER on your assessment. You should have your choreography memorized to the best of your ability.
• It is preferred that you film in a live pool setting in front of real students. However, you may film by yourself (without students) on land, in your home or garage or in a club or facility. You must simulate a real teaching environment.
• In a pool setting, place the camera so that it is facing you as directly as possible.  If you are at a side-angle, please make sure that your movements are seen clearly. Avoid flags and people that may get in the way of you and the camera.
• If you are filming in your facility/club or at your home, simulate a real teaching situation pretending that you have students in a pool in front of you. Talk to your students, look at them and pretend they are there.
• Your video must run from the beginning to the end of the class without stopping.
• Before you begin filming the final video, test that your sound system and microphone are in working order so that we see you and can hear both you and the music clearly.

Simulating a live class setting:

• You must teach the choreography exactly as it appears in the video and choreography notes – in the correct format and on the beat.
• You must use the release on which you were initially trained.
• You must be the only instructor teaching the class – no team teaching or shadowing by any other instructor. No placing of help in the back or front of the class to assist you. You must be the only one at the front of the class.
• Make sure to save a copy of your video file until you have received your assessment results.
