Testimonials from Edinburgh GRADUATES

Ramnik Sembi
Founder of Ramnik Personal Training
“I absolutely made the right decision to choose OriGym! I’m very grateful for their continued support and their amazing tutors. OriGym’s approach to flexibility encouraged me to study in my own time – perfect for a busy parent juggling responsibilities. My career since has gone from strength to strength. I set up my own brand in a home-based studio where I train my clients. I also work as a Group Fitness Instructor, have set up my own HIIT fitness event and work with local academies encouraging children to enjoy exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle.”
Elani Ventor
OriGym Personal Training Graduate
“I have extensive experience with online studies (through various institutions), and can honestly attest that OriGym has been my best experience yet. I’ve received speedy and very helpful assistance every time that I needed help with my assessments or study-work, and absolutely LOVE the curriculum. I’d recommend anyone interested in health and fitness to enrol, it’s been a blast for me so far”
Anne Hansford
OriGym Fitness Instructing Graduate
“Can’t overstate how valuable the workshop with Olivia was in helping prepare me for the practical assessment. She was fantastic — so knowledgeable, a great teacher, but really friendly and fun to be around too. Chloe oversaw my assessment and she was also fantastic. Incredibly professional, and really encouraging. I was amazed at the detailed feedback she provided at the end of the session. Every person I have spoken to has been great — professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and patient.”
