Exercise (ACE), Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA), and American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM).  This document is a great resource if you are struggling to determine where to go to get certified to teach group fitness.  It is just a reference, and does not include every certifying body available.   But it is a great way to see you major choices in an easy to read format.  Bonus if you live in the Boston area — it includes reference to when these companies are offering workshops in your area!
