STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
sTEPHEN
“This is a big change in direction for me and I definitely made the right choice studying with FEA for my Level 2 Certificate in Gym Instructing. The learning materials were first rate and very user friendly. Andrew our tutor was excellent at building confidence in all areas of gym instructing in readiness for the practical assessments. Such a positive experience that I’m sticking with FEA to achieve my Level 3 Personal Trainer qualification, so I can help others enjoy the benefits of exercising and achieving their fitness goals.”
DELPHI
“I have just completed my personal training Diploma with The Fitness Education Academy and can’t recommend the standards of teaching enough! The FEA lecturers are full of knowledge and wisdom about the fitness industry and go above and beyond to help prepare you for the real world. I have learnt so much from my time on the Level 2 gym instructor and level 3 PT courses and can’t wait to start my new business venture in the new year."
ABBIE
“I’ve always loved fitness and it’s always been a part of my life anywhere I could fit it in. Doing the gym instructor course allowed me to go on to the personal trainer course and gain me that qualification. I want to use the knowledge I’ve learned to help others feel confident with fitness and hopefully at some point in the future maybe even have my own gym.”
Your passion for fitness can be the foundation of someone else’s transformation.
