Sebastian Moise

Level 3 Sport Fitness and Personal Training

"I always get great support from my tutors, If I don't understand something, or I'm not sure how to do something, there's always someone I can turn to for support. My teachers and coaches are great; there's always someone that can help me."

Lily Dowling

Level 3 Sports Fitness and Personal Training

"I ended up deciding to study the Sports Fitness and Personal Training course because the skills and knowledge I'll learn will open a lot of doors for me in the fitness sector. I'm more interested in the theory behind sports fitness than full-time practical work, so the greater emphasis this course places on theory compared to some others nearby intrigued me. Now, I get to learn how to do client screenings, biomechanics and other elements that I wouldn't have learnt about anywhere else!"

Charlotte Grant

BSc (Hons) Applied Physical Education and Sports Coaching (Top-Up)

"You dive deeper into subjects you wouldn't associate with teaching and coaching. Like a lot of psychological stuff and well as physical. It’s a nice variety, but also all the opportunities we are given."

Gary Hall

Lecturer - Sport and Exercise

"I still work in the industry; it is important to me and my students that I am always up to date with current ways of working. I work together with my industry contacts and students to organise additional training, which complements their studies."
