If you enrol over the phone, we’ll set everything up for you there and then and guide you to your first step.

If you enrol online from this page, we’ll contact you straight away to arrange a friendly orientation call so you’re fully supported and know exactly where to start.

Most learners begin with gentle home study to get familiar with the basics, which is especially reassuring if you haven’t studied for years.

You’ll have access to:

✔️ Level 2 Anatomy & Physiology Bootcamp: Clear, simplified teaching of the science (no jargon overload)
✔️ Level 2 Muscle Memory Sprint: Learn muscles quickly using proven memory techniques
✔️ Level 2 Muscle Memory Flashcards: Perfect for short bursts of study
✔️ FITPRO Start-Up Kit: Ready-to-use documents for when you begin training clients.

Typical study time: just 2–4 hours per week

There are no strict deadlines.

You can move faster or slower depending on your schedule, work, and family commitments.

Many learners tell us this stage removes their nerves completely before attending the practical weekend.

Depending on how close to the attendance weekend you enrol, you can complete your home study either before or after the course.

This is where everything comes together and where most learners realise they’re far more capable than they thought.

You’ll practise coaching, learn how to use equipment safely, and work alongside others who feel just like you.

No one is put on the spot.

No one is expected to be perfect.

Our in-person weekend is:

✔️ Friendly, supportive, and welcoming
✔️ Hands-on and practical
✔️ Not classroom-heavy
✔️ Taught in plain English, not academic jargon
✔️ Focused on real gym instructor skills
✔️ To build knowledge and confidence.

Learners describe this weekend as:

“Fun”
“Confidence-boosting”
“Much easier than expected”
“Like being part of a team”

During the course, you’ll complete a small number of practical assessments but they’re designed to feel natural, not intimidating.

This isn’t like a driving test or an exam situation. In fact, most learners don’t even realise they’re being assessed, as it simply happens while you’re practising the skills you’ve just learned.

After your practical weekend, you’ll complete any remaining coursework with our guidance.

You’re never left to figure things out alone.

✔️ Ongoing tutor support
✔️ Clear guidance on assignments
✔️ Resources you can revisit anytime
✔️ Lifetime access to your learning materials
✔️ Learning that fits Around Real Life

We know many of our learners are balancing work, family, and busy schedules and may not have studied for years.

That’s why our approach is:

✔️ Flexible
✔️ Supportive
✔️ Step-by-step
✔️ Designed for adult learners
✔️ Focused on building confidence first

This isn’t about “going back to school.”

It’s about gaining a new skill in a welcoming, professional environment.

You might think becoming a gym instructor is for the youngsters.

However, the average age of our learners is 42- 48.

On every course, they'll be a mix of ages.

They'll be a couple of younger ones in their late 20s and early 30s. Plus a few in their 50s and 60s.

Health and fitness is inclusive. Now more than ever we see people of all ages want to kick-start in fitness.

Perhaps you've had your own fitness journey?

Or you're wanting to start afresh having taken time out to start a family.
