When it comes to teaching fitness online, some people have absolutely figured it out. I have a friend who is a Zumba presenter and she has built a real business around virtual classes. Because of who she is and the following she has developed, people show up for her consistently. She still teaches in person on top of it, and by all accounts she is doing well for herself. Good for her.
Others have gone even further and turned online fitness into serious, profit generating operations. The space can be genuinely lucrative for the right person with the right approach and the right audience.
It is just not for me. I have thought about it and I know it works. But teaching fitness online is not something I enjoy, and for me that matters. If the enjoyment is not there, the product suffers and the people you are supposed to be serving feel it. I would rather keep doing what I love the way I love doing it than chase a revenue stream that does not fit who I am as an instructor.
