PERSONAL TRAINING BUSINESS START UPS

In this Hybrid (virtual and online) course you will learn how to build a personal training practice and run an efficient and successful fitness business which can be adopted for both the online and in-person environments. 

The goal of this course is to empower personal trainers and fitness professionals to startup or pivot successfully.

The online component consists of videos and the book, Online Personal Training that are provided for self-study. The virtual component consists of three, 1-hour sessions via Zoom to support your learning. Virtual dates are listed on the course registration form.

If you want to be a personal trainer or desire to grow your business, I highly recommend this book. It is concise, contains step by step implementations and my personal favourite, asks you to answer some self-reflection questions that will help you build your ideal company.
