Personal Trainer Courses in Edinburgh Testimonials

  • Sue Evans

    Sue Evans

    Qualified PT

    “I researched many fitness courses but kept coming back to OriGym. The course itself was AMAZING! The staff and teachers were fantastic, I really felt that they cared about me and my progress, going above and beyond what I had ever expected from them. I’m now a confident Personal Trainer working for an international gym chain. The future looks so bright for me; I’m even enquiring about doing a season on a Cruise ship as part of the Royal Caribbean fitness team! OriGym has helped to make my dreams come true.”

  • Heather Hacking

    Heather Hacking

    Founder of Heather Hacking PT

    “Studying part-time with OriGym to fit around family and work, I achieved my Level 2 and Level 3 PT qualifications. I found the courses to be fantastically structured and well organised, and my tutor Andy was brilliant – he taught me so much! After graduating I started my business with the sole purpose of empowering women physically and mentally. My business has now been shortlisted as a finalist in the ‘Breakthrough Personal Trainer’ category at Northern Ireland’s Health & Fitness Awards! I am very grateful to OriGym for giving me a great foundation to launch my business from.”

  • Jessica Lee

    Olympic Track Cyclist

    “Although this is starting something new, it’s also building on something that I already have.I reached out to friends who have done similar courses and OriGym was mentioned as the course to go to. After I enquired, Michelle called the next day and was really organic and genuine in our conversations, whereas other providers sent a generic email where I still had to do more research myself. As an olympian a mission is to always pass on experience and knowledge. I’d look to eventually have my own company to really pass on my passion and maybe even help create a new olympian in the future!”
