Success Stories

Alex Goulding
PT & Mental Health Coach
“OriGym is a fantastically organised and engaging course. The staff are very knowledgeable and offer great in person and online options. I completed my Level 2 & Level 3 Personal Training Qualifications with OriGym and recently undertook my Level 3 GP Referral Course assessment. I am currently studying my Level 4 obesity and diabetes course. Since graduating, I have collaborated with a number of gyms and brought my services and expertise to these spaces. It is wonderful being a part of a person’s fitness journey and watching them grow with my guidance.”
Angel Howarth
Personal Trainer & Online Coach
“Since qualifying as a personal trainer, I have helped hundreds of women to build confidence in lifting weights in the gym and to transform their bodies. Through both 1-1 PT and online coaching, I have built an incredible community of women who support and motivate each other. It is such a rewarding feeling to help women become better, stronger, fitter and more confident.”
