This study aimed to investigate the effect of Individual and dyad training on aerobic skill learning in elderly. The study of the semi empirical type with pre - test and posttest design is with two experimental groups that have been done in the field. The statistical population of the research is the elderly of the city of Tabriz, which among them were selected 24 people with accessible sampling.

The results of repeated variance showed that the effect of the measurement stages on learning is meaningful (P=0.001) and the rate of learning varies in different stages; Also, Group's impact on learning is meaningful (P=0.002) and the rate of learning in dyad group is more than individual group. Based on the results dyad training method with care to more learning in elderly women is one of the most effective and effective methods along with other methods in order to learn motor skills. Because active participation of elderly as a reality full of experience improves in sport community.
