The NordicBarre Method
Teacher's License Agreement

Pertains only to those participating in the The NordicBarre Method live or online level 1 teacher training and/or Masterclasses in NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre. 

This agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between The NordicBarre Method, whose address is Sandslättsvägen 17, 311 42 Falkenberg, Sweden and the Trainee who is registering for training with The NordicBarre Method (the “Trainee”). This Agreement is made as of the date that Trainee registers for training through The NordicBarre Method’s website.

​

  1. The Trainee shall receive training from The NordicBarre Method in its proprietary NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre exercise technique at the cost set by The NordicBarre Method. Payment and execution of this Agreement are required at the time of registration.

  2. The NordicBarre Method will provide a full refund if there is a cancellation on our part.

  3. If the Trainee chooses to cancel their purchase of an online Masterclass or Teacher Training, no refund will be issued, as the material is provided through recorded video content and can be completed as a self-study. If the Trainee wishes to cancel an in-person training, this must be done no later than 2 weeks before the event date. In such cases, an 80% refund will be issued, or the Trainee may attend another event of equal or lesser value within the next 12 months, subject to availability.

  4. The NordicBarre Method will train Trainee in NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre as follows:
    (a) The NordicBarre Method will conduct class or online instruction for up to a total of 12 hours, Whereas 3 of these hours are self-practice with homework.
    (b) The Trainee must complete 10 hours of practice on their own using friends or clients as participants in their classes. Taking classes of other certified instructors from The NordicBarre Method can also be part of the training, though a minimum of 5 hours should be taught by the trainee her/himself.

  5. A final practical and written test is required to be certified in The NordicBarre Method.
    a) The practical test consists of Trainee video recording themselves teaching a full NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre class to at least three students. Trainee is responsible for uploading the video to The NordicBarre Method shared on google drive or sent via wetransfer.com or uploaded on as a private youtube video. It is important that the video clearly shows the Trainee as well as the students taking the class and that it is possible to hear the voice of the trainee on the video. A fee of 50€ has already been paid through the inscription to the formation. The Trainee has two attempts to pass the exam. From the first video submitted he/she will receive feedback (if needed) and will then be able to submit another video within a month from the feedback was received. If the Trainee does not pass the exam, a new video may be required at an additional cost. Trainee will have 6 months from training completions to receive their certification. If certification is not received within 6 months, Trainee may be required to attend an additional training weekend at the Trainee’s own expense.
    b) The written test will be shared with the Trainee after terminating the formation days. The written exam is mainly to make sure that the Trainee is understanding the branding of The NordicBarre Method and is not part of the final exam. Though it is mandatory to complete the test before receiving the certification. 

  6. When Trainee completes the training, The NordicBarre Method grants Trainee a non-exclusive, non-transferable license (the “License”) to use the The NordicBarre Method technique for barre classes at any gym/studio with adequate equipment. Employment is at the discretion of the studio/gym owner or hiring manager. If teaching The NordicBarre Method format, Trainee is required, to name their class “NordicBarre” or “Nordic Vertical Barre” and use the provided class description in the instructor manual and include The NordicBarre Method’s official logo in all promotional materials (not including posts and storie on social media)

  7. The Trainee is not allowed to create his/hers own playlists or choreographies while teaching under the name of “The NordicBarre Method”, “NordicBarre” or “Nordic Vertical Barre”, as well as all material taken from the platform is copyrighted and the Trainee is not allowed to share the videos or documents or to teach the material under a different name or without a valid certificate from The NordicBarre Method. 

  8. Trainee will need access to the teachers platform at www.thenordicbarremethod.com for a cost of €20/month to be able to stay updated with new video material and class documents. This access is required to be kept for a minimum of one year after receiving the certificate. Once the year has passed the Trainee decides if he/she desires to keep the subscription. It is possible to pay the full subscription for a year all at once and get a discount of 10%. 

  9. Trainee agrees that The NordicBarre Method technique is unique to The NordicBarre Method and results from an investment of a substantial amount of money and effort in the technique’s creation and development.

  10. The NordicBarre Method shall give the Trainee one copy (physical or PDF) of the confidential, proprietaryThe NordicBarre Method manual . The NordicBarre Method shall retain all intellectual property rights in the Manual. Trainee shall not make any copies of the manual, or any part of the Manual, or its revisions. If Trainee makes a copy of the Manual or any part of it, or a revision, or discloses the contents to any person or entity not authorized by The NordicBarre Method, Trainee is deemed to have created an additional license for a fee of €450 for each copy of the Manual or a substantial part, as well as €450 for each person to whom the contents are disclosed. This “additional license” provision is not intended or deemed to be exclusive, but is cumulative of any other rights or remedy permitted by law.

  11. Except to those persons who have a valid, current certification from The NordicBarre Method in NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre, and except for normal disclosure in class instruction, Trainee shall not disclose The NordicBarre Method technique or the contents of the Manual to any person or entity.

  12. This Agreement does not affect or limit Trainee’s rights to teach fitness classes other than the The NordicBarre Method.

  13. NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre certifications must take place through The NordicBarre Method unless approved by The NordicBarre Method to take place elsewhere. Certified NordicBarre and/or Nordic Vertical Barre teachers or those going through training are not authorized to train others on the The NordicBarre Method classes, unless The NordicBarre Method provides prior approval in writing. If a Trainee provides unauthorized training to any other person, The NordicBarre Method reserves the right to revoke the Trainees License and Certification and/or impose an additional fee.

  14. Each provision of this Agreement is severable. If any provision of this Agreement for any reason is unenforceable, the provision shall be deemed modified to the maximum extent that is enforceable, and all other provisions shall remain valid and enforceable.

  15. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement with respect to its subject matter and may be amended only in a writing signed by both The NordicBarre Method and the Trainee.

  16. This Agreement will be deemed signed by both parties once Trainee completes and submits registration with full payment and checks all appropriate boxes to acknowledge registration and payment.
