We love seeing what our learners go on to do 👏

A huge well done to Matthew Smillie, who recently completed his Sports Massage Therapist qualification with the FEA and is now offering treatments alongside his personal training and coaching.

It’s never just a class.

You might be their hour to switch off, reset, move their body, see familiar faces or do something that’s entirely for them.

A little reminder for every instructor: what you do matters more than you probably realise.

Not flexible enough. Too old. Next year. Don’t know enough about anatomy.

Every single instructor we’ve ever qualified said at least one of these before they started.

And then they started anyway.

Confidence isn’t what gets you started. It’s what you get from starting.
