Welcome to The Fitness Education Academy
The Fitness Education Academy is Scotland’s longest established fitness training provider, established in 2008 by Annalisa Buchanan and later joined by her daughter Georgia Torrance. They currently deliver fitness qualifications throughout Scotland and some areas in England with a team of approximately 18 tutors, assessors and instructors. We offer a wide range of fitness related training courses mainly in Edinburgh and the Lothians, Glasgow and the west, Kirkcaldy and other locations in Fife, Aberdeen and surrounding areas, Peterhead and surrounding areas. More recently we have set up our academy in Spain and currently teach our fitness instructor and personal training courses in Manilva, Spain.
As well as these locations we also offer bespoke courses for facilities looking to upskill their staff to meet current personal trainer and fitness instructor standards. Our extensive range of courses include gym instructor, group exercise and personal training qualifications. We also provide a wide range of CPD courses which are all endorsed by CIMSPA.
All of our fitness qualifications are endorsed by Active IQ or YMCA Awards as well as being registered with CIMSPA (Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity). Being established in 2008 we have many years experience, and enjoy working closely with a number of gyms and leisure centres throughout the UK. Due to our outstanding reputation, we can guarantee you an interview with some of these facilities when you qualify as a personal trainer with us. In 2022 we were the proud winners of Education Facility of the Year at the National Fitness Awards UK.
