General Personal Training specific questions
We work with a number of schools, the choice of school should depend on your previous knowledge, as each training programme has a different focus.
It’s best to contact an independent insurance advisor in your area. You should certainly have a liability insurance and a daily allowance insurance would also be worth considering.
