How to become a personal trainer in Chatham
If you live in Chatham or anywhere in Kent, you can qualify as a personal trainer without travelling to a classroom every week. Our Level 2 & 3 Combined Diploma in Personal Training is taught through a fully video-based learning platform, so you study from home at your own pace.
You get a dedicated 1-to-1 mentor, weekly live support calls and monthly workshops. Theory exams are taken online, and you can film your practical assessment and upload it, so there's no need to travel for that either.
Most students qualify in 10–12 weeks studying around 3 hours a week. Once qualified, you can work in gyms across Chatham and Kent, or start your own personal training business.

Chatham is one of the Medway towns, best known for its Historic Dockyard, with a large population of families, commuters and students from the universities at Medway. A big, mixed population gives a personal trainer a wide range of people to work with, from first-time gym users to experienced lifters.
The gym scene runs from a big-box gym at Horsted Retail Park to a council leisure centre, a hotel gym, a university gym and several independent gyms in Chatham and Rochester. Price guides put personal training in Kent at roughly £40–£55 a session.
Rochester, Gillingham, Strood and Maidstone are all within easy reach, so you can build a client base across the Medway towns, or add online coaching alongside your sessions.
Examples of where a qualified PT could work in and around Chatham. Pro-Fitness Academy is not affiliated with these gyms.
