A DIFFERENT WAY TO QUALIFY

YOU CAN'T LEARN TO COACH PEOPLE PROPERLY FROM A SCREEN.

There are plenty of ways to get a personal training certificate. TSPT Academy is built for people who want to feel capable of actually doing the job when they finish.

You’ll practise coaching, communication, exercise delivery and movement skills in person, with direct feedback each week from an experienced tutor working in the industry.

LEARN FROM SOMEONE WHO DOES THIS EVERY DAY.

Tom, owner of TSPT Academy and Transform York, leads the course using over a decade of fitness-industry experience and the lessons learned from building and managing a successful private coaching facility.
