FAQs

"Is TFC Pro Membership right for me? or should I join Explorer instead?"

Explorer Membership is best for individuals wanting to improve their own foot and movement health with guided training and community support.
TFC Pro Membershipis best for health or movement professionals who want to:
- Apply TFC's approach in their work with others
- Be listed in the TFC Pro Directory

"Can I run official TFC events as a TFC Pro?"

Becoming a TFC Pro does not qualify you to run official TFC‑branded events.
Running TFC‑branded events and classes sits under the separate TFC Guide Certification, which is a 2‑day event focused on event and class delivery.

“Do I need to be certified to be listed on the directory”

Yes - moving forward, professionals will need to:

Join the TFC Pro Membership
Complete the required onboarding steps
Complete the online TFC Pro Certification Assessment (option to attend the in-person Pro Certification event for accelerated learning or complete online)
Then be listed in the TFC Pro Directory.

This ensures all practitioners in the directory have completed the full certification process and meet TFC's clinical standards.

“Who is TFC Pro Membership designed for?”

TFC Pro is designed for health and movement professionals who help others improve foot and lower‑limb function.

Yes, students in relevant fields (for example physiotherapy, podiatry, exercise science, sports medicine, or similar) are welcome to join but are unable to become certified until they have a qualification. We don’t currently offer discounts for students due to the wholesale aspect associated with this membership.
