I couldn't recommend them more!
Excellent customer service; from Sarah, to Jaimee, to Kristine, the team members have been supportive, friendly, consistent and professional in every step of my journey with Fitness Institute.
Consider that I had a terrible urgency in getting my GEL qualification, and I admit - I bothered them MANY times.
Did they react nervously or lose their patience? No!
They've been amazing all the time, super-patient, super-helpful.
I have experience in teaching customer service, and let me tell you: EXCELLENT JOB!
(this was the first time I heard about them, it's not a fake review! 😉 )

Frequently Asked Questions

can i run freestyle classes?

No, the GEL skillset will only qualify you for pre-choreographed group fitness classes.

If you want to run freestyle classes, you will need to complete at minimum the Certificate III in Fitness.

If you do want to design your own fitness classes and obtain a greater knowledge of anatomy, physiology, group instruction and exercise prescription in the near future, you should consider the Certificate III & IV in Fitness which is a pathway to becoming a qualified Gym Supervisor and Personal Trainer.

Read more about the differences between Group Exercise Leader and Group Exercise Instructor Qualification HERE.

hOW QUICKLY CAN I COMPLETE THIS COURSE?

This will vary for each student depending on:

Completion of the external certification (some require more work than others).
Completion of all learning and coursework.
Completion of all work placement (11 hours)

A good guide would be to allow at least 3 weeks to complete all work.

All students will have 5 months to complete this course.

If the course is not completed withing 5 months, students can purchase an extension for one program stage.

CAN I COMPLETE A CERTIFICATE III IN FITNESS LATER?

Yes you can, and these units can be counted as credit towards a Certificate III in Fitness.

I already have a Certificate III in Fitness, Do I require a GEL Certification?

As registration, insurance and employment requirements differ between organisations, we recommend contacting professional registration organisations, employers and/or insurers directly for their specific requirements.
