    Check out Spinning.com to see of spinning certifications, Protempo.ie will have Reebok cycle one, Profi fit has a spin one, NTC also has a spin

    Bodypump - you would need to be working under a Les Mills lisenced facility and they would have to give you an affiliation letter before you can do bodypump but profi fit run a similar class course called pump and tone and Pump FX have something similar too

    Many places might like it if you have a pilates certification and aqua too - all depends on whether you plan on going freelance or doing shift work. If its experience holding you back maybe rent somewhere and market your own type of class like in a local sports hall or something. That way you will learn what works and what doesnt and how to mesh with people when teaching and it will give you experience too - maybe something like a circuits class etc

    Here's the details of upcoming courses with the official Spinning certification:
    Spinning Instructor Certification - Ireland

    I've taken qualifications and workshops with different training providers and the official Spinning Certification stands out way above the others for presenter experience, depth of information covered, practical knowledge you gain, wide array of continuing education options and several annual events where you can attend workshops and rides with the Master Instructors...
