Become A Highly Paid & In Demand Personal Trainer in Under 12 Months
Get the exact step-by-step blueprint to becoming a qualified PT, landing your first 5 paying clients, and building a career you love
You love training.
You've probably thought about coaching others.
Maybe you've already helped a few mates get in better shape.
But there's a gap between "I'm good at this" and "I can make a great living and launch a career doing this”.
Most PT courses won't bridge that gap for you.
They'll teach you anatomy and movements.
They'll certify you to work legally.
But they won't teach you how to coach someone who's never stepped foot in a gym.
Or how to get your first paying client.
Or what to do when someone's not seeing results.
That's the difference between getting qualified and launching a successful coaching business from day one.
The MTN Coaches Academy doesn't just certify you.
It prepares you to succeed from the moment you start coaching.
Introducing: The MTN Coaches Academy
The Most Practical, No-Fluff Personal Training Certification & Business Launch System
MTN Coaches Academy is not just another qualification. It’s a full roadmap to:
Get certified
As a Level 2 Fitness Instructor and Level 3 Personal Trainer with the right qualifications so you can coach legally
Master real coaching skills
From someone who is actually still running one of the UK's most successful coaching businesses.
Learn how to get great clients
From mentors who have worked with over 2,500 clients and sold over £3 million in fitness services
Learn how to earn real money
To work towards building your dream life for you, your family and your future!
We don’t just teach theory
We give you the exact blueprint, strategies, and support to actually build a successful fitness business from Day 1.
The Problem With Most PT Courses
Here's what happens to most people who want to become personal trainers:
They pick the cheapest course online.
Spend weeks memorising muscle names and energy systems.
Pass their exam.
Get their certificate.
Then reality hits...
They need to get clients, speak to people on the gym floor, put together packages for sessions, post content, organise their calendar…
Most courses don’t prepare you for the reality of being a coach.
And they certainly don’t give you the blueprint for launching a successful coaching business from day one. We built the MTN Coaches Academy to fix this.
Worried about wwitching careers?
You're probably in a job that pays the bills but doesn't light you up.
You know you'd love coaching people, helping them transform their lives through fitness.
But making the leap feels risky.
What if you can't find enough clients?
What if you struggle to make the same money you're earning now?
What if you qualify and then realise you're not cut out for this?
These aren't unreasonable fears.
They're smart questions.
And that's exactly why we don't believe in the "take a leap and figure it out as you go" approach.
The MTN Coaches Academy is designed to eliminate the guesswork.
You'll build your skills, confidence, and even start earning money as a coach before you need to make any big decisions about your current job.
By the time you're ready to go full-time, you'll already know this works.
You'll have clients, systems, and the confidence that comes from helping real people get real results.
This isn't about jumping and building wings on the way down. It's about building a foundation so solid that when you're ready to leap, you know exactly where you're landing.
TESTIMONIALS
What others are saying
"I Couldn't Be Happier with my experience."
I couldn’t be happier with my experience at the MTN Academy. Everything was so well organised, from the meet-ups to the course itself. The online platform was seamless, and if I ever had questions, David & Derek were incredibly responsive and supportive.
The community aspect was a game-changer—meeting like-minded people, supporting each other in group chats, and bonding before in-person meet-ups made the journey even more enjoyable.
Since qualifying, I took the leap from running my decorating business for 10 years to becoming a full-time coach, and within my first month, I had nearly 30 clients. I owe that success to the knowledge, techniques, and ongoing support from MTN Academy. If you’re considering getting qualified,
this is the course that can genuinely change your life.
- Alan Davidson
"Best Decision You'll Make."
I was stuck in a dead-end job when I saw the opportunity to become a personal trainer with MTN Academy. From the start, David and Derek were fantastic mentors, easing my worries and guiding me through every step.
The combination of online learning and in-person meet-ups made a huge difference—not only in my education but in building a community of like-minded people going through the same journey. The business modules from David were next-level, teaching me everything I needed about marketing, sales, and building a successful PT career.
Since qualifying, I’ve landed a job at PureGym Silverburn and now have 10 1-2-1 clients. Even after finishing the course, David continues to support me and my business whenever I need it
—his guidance has been invaluable. If you’re serious about making fitness your career, this is the best decision you’ll make.
- Craig Young
"It’s a life-changing experience with
unmatched support"
I was hesitant about doing this course while working 12+ hour days, but it turned out to be
the best decision of 2024! The online structure allowed me to go at my own pace, and the constant support from David & Derek made the process stress-free.
What sets MTN Academy apart is the
business training —David’s modules on marketing, social media, and finance were a complete blueprint for success, something you won’t get with any other PT course. On top of that, the community aspect was unreal. We all pushed each other forward, making it feel like a team effort rather than just another course.
If you’re even thinking about becoming a PT,get on board!
This isn’t just a qualification—it’s a life-changing experience with
unmatched support
from start to finish.
