I did the face to face course for my certificate 3 & 4 in Fitness through NHFA and I can highly recommend this course. Being a practical learner it was so important to have the face to face interaction to push me through and keep me accountable.
Prior to the fitness industry, I worked in real estate for 9 years, although I enjoyed it, it was not something I could see myself doing for the rest of my life. Fitness is where my passion is and I decided to take the leap of faith and study my cert 3 & 4. Once qualified I started group classes as well as 1:1 PT, I dropped my realestate to part time and 3 months later I was able to resign and work as a full time PT. Fast forward another 3 months I opened my own gym and 12 months down the track I have 5 employees, running 28 classes per week and multiple PTs in between each class.
Just finished the full time course at Bundall and loved every minute of it! After studying Criminology at university, this was the start of a completely different path for me. From the start I was definitely nervous as I didn’t know what to expect, but the coaches, staff and other students made me feel so comfortable. Dave and the rest of the coaches all specialise in different areas of health and fitness, which made their classes enjoyable and filled with so much valuable information. Not only has the course provided me with the skills to transition straight into becoming a qualified personal trainer, but it’s also allowed me to learn new things that I can incorporate into my own training as a rugby player. Overall, I recommend this course to anyone who is thinking about starting their fitness journey. I’ve made some amazing friends along the way, and look forward to starting my career as a personal trainer.

NHFA has been more than I could have asked for. They provide a safe learning environment for all students to excel in. They have the top of the top teachers and such beautiful, kind-hearted admin ladies. They will make you feel special and like you’re #1. They helped me realise my talent and give me the tools to succeed!

Don’t look further than the National Health and Fitness Academy
Thank you very much to Dave Burgis and the National Health and Fitness Academy for the fantastic course and enabling me to gain my Personal Training Qualifications. I found you and your team to be extremely professional and a pleasure to deal with. NHFA are definitely the experts when it comes to creating awesome personal trainers both in Practical and the Business Application. Having performed at the top level for some time it was important for me to be educated and advised by the best in the business…
The best Personal Training course EVER!
It was an absolute honour doing my qualifications with NHFA. What an incredible course, so practical, amazing coaches, administrative queens & the best classmates I could have hoped for.
I would highly recommend anyone looking to complete their certs to do them with NHFA. I couldn’t imagine a better program.
Thank you!!
Erin completed her course at the end of June 2021 and started as a Personal Trainer at Goodlife Health Club Robina at the beginning of July 2021
For anyone that is really looking to dominate in the industry.
I have always recommended Dave and the NHFA because they go above and beyond to deliver the very best information, skills and tools to create the industry’s most outstanding Personal Trainers!
I started studying with NHFA not knowing exactly what I wanted to do, however from my very first class I knew I had made the right decision!
The coaches are so very knowledgeable and always there to help.
Throughout my course I met so many beautiful people….class was so fun
Each class was perfectly designed! Everything I have learnt is still stuck in my head and gave me everything I needed to take the big step of starting out as a PT. I’m now working at Goodlife Coomera and I’m extremely happy.
A big thank you to Mel also, she was always right there when we needed her and I received so much support from her ️
For anyone that’s wanting a life change and to become a personal trainer, I 100% recommend NHFA. You will get the highest quality of education, knowledge, and support from the whole team!
Don’t think twice, just do it
Ambra completed her qualifications in January 2021 and started as a Personal Trainer at Goodlife Health Club Coomera in March 2021
I am aware of how important it is to get the right coaching from the start.
Having started my own career as Personal Trainer I am aware of how important it is to get the right coaching from the start. I enjoy passing on my knowledge to the students and that is why I teach regularly at the academy. If you want to start a career in sports or within the fitness industry, I would advise you to call NHFA today. I hope to meet you there soon!
Studying my Cert III and IV through NHFA was an absolute joy. All coaches were very knowledgeable, supportive, and a ball of fun to learn from. NHFA not only provided me with the knowledge and hands on experience I need for me to be an exceptional PT, but has also given me so much support throughout the course and outside of the course, which has given me the opportunity to now be apart of the Goodlife Health Clubs Coomera team as a personal trainer there.
Big shout out to my classmates who I now can call my friends, thank you for making the experience a breeze and a whole lot of fun!
100% recommend studying through NHFA, you will obtain the best experience and knowledge through Dave and his team of coaches.
NHFA is awesome, Dave and all the teachers have been an amazing guide. The experience I had training with them has been vital for taking my next steps into the industry. I can say whole heartedly that I’d recommend them to anyone who is serious about changing career paths and heading into the fitness industry, you’ll have the best team of people backing you up. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to do the course with these guys.
Ashley completed her qualifications in May 2021 and started as a Personal trainer at Goodlife Health Club Nerang in May 2021
Being a professional cyclist for 15 years I have always had an interest in health and fitness. I am so pleased I chose NHFA to do my fitness qualifications as I am learning so much through the online platform. Because all the modules are video’s of Dave and the other coaches teaching an actual class it made it so easy for me to follow. He teaches in a way that makes difficult concepts easy to understand and because the theory is all online I can rewatch it if I don’t quite get it the first time. I’m enjoying connecting with the coaches and my classmates in our weekly Zoom class where our coach recaps the modules we’ve done the previous week and holds a Q&A session. I can’t wait until we can go back into the gyms and complete the practical side and put all we’ve learned in place.
A truly professionally run academy, from behind the scenes with Mel right through to the group of amazing coaches, NHFA clearly has the cream of the crop in their stable.
Aside from engaging and informative face-to-face lessons, the ability to self-learn on the portal is exceptional, enabling students to continue their learning outside the classroom.
The coaches are intrinsically knowledgeable & extremely generous both with their time and their IP, happy to assist in any way in order to create the best possible trainers for the industry.
If this is your passion & chosen path, then NHFA is not AN option it is your ONLY option, anything else would be second rate….
NHFA got me where I wanted to be
Thanks to Dave and the incredible team at NHFA I was able to go from a job I didn’t really enjoy doing to my dream career of being a Personal Trainer. The awesome coaches made it really easy to learn and I got so much from their experiences in the industry. The course prepared me exceptionally well for my new career and I can’t wait to help people get fitter and happier.
I wanted to be a Personal Trainer because I love working out and doing my own thing in the gym, and I wanted to make other people feel as amazing as I do when I reach goals or see a little bit of difference in my own body. I was working in hospitality as a barista and had had enough.
As soon as I met Dave from NHFA he made me feel so comfortable and really believed in me as I had a lot of self-doubt, NHFA was really professional and very affordable. I loved that the coaches told us real life events that happened in their lives, whether it be mistakes or wins that they had when they were going through their own fitness journey, I feel as if NHFA has the best of best coaches for each topic we were learning. I personally was so unsure if I would be any good at personal training, Dave and the other coaches really believed in me, now looking back it was the best decision I have ever made! Thank you NHFA
My experience studying with Dave and the NHFA team was wonderful. Dave has this ability to meet you where you are at and take you where you need to go and I am so grateful. The NHFA team are not only like a family, but Dave has chosen the best in the health, fitness & business industry to equip his PT student to great success.
What I love the most about the NHFA is the after service they provide their graduates by constantly reaching out with job opportunities from fitness clubs.
I am so excited to see what my future holds as a PT, so far it has been truly amazing. Thank you NHFA.
Clare has created a home studio/gym where she trains her clients at Swansea Heads near Newcastle. Clare’s son Sam is now doing his Certificate III & IV in Fitness with NHFA
Today is my last day with NHFA and Dave. The greatest feeling is knowing you have the ability to positively effect change within not only myself but the lives of others by doing something that I love and am very passionate about. What I have gained from Dave is truly priceless.
NHFA is a 5 star team!
Great trainers, great content and great facilities. Really good mix of classroom and practical learning. Nothing was ever too much trouble for the NHFA team, from the admin to all the trainers. Overall great experience.
Ben has a love of fitness and wanted to gain his qualification for his own personal interest. He is a keen athlete & runner and has completed the Kona Hawaii Ironman Championships in 2019!
After recently completing my Certificate III and IV in Fitness at National Health and Fitness Academy with Dave Burgis, I found the course extremely beneficial in not only the skill gained to partake in a career in the fitness industry but also the confidence gained to go about any day to day activities.
From start to the finish it was amazing, the way we were taught was, in my opinion, one of the best ways to learn. All of the coaches we had were informative and made the classes fun! I would recommend NHFA to anyone looking to get into the fitness industry!
Rohan attended NHFA’s full-time course and completed his qualification in May 2021. He has since started as a Personal trainer at Goodlife Health Club Robina
Great experience with NHFA! As a deaf person, I wasn’t sure how accessible the course was and while it wasn’t perfect, Dave, Melinda and the coaches did everything they could to ensure I could still access the classes and sessions and made me feel included. I loved the different coaches NHFA have as they brought their own wealth of knowledge to the classes and really engaged my interest. I really enjoyed the course content and the coaches and have made great friendships in the class. Would highly recommend NHFA if you are interested in pursuing personal training.
Bradley completed his qualifications in March 2021 and is currently running classes at Sign&Us, a Health hub/Gym for the Deaf & hard of hearing, and does one-on-one Personal Training at CrossFit Unrest.
Really smart and relatable coaches who have been in the fitness industry for a long time. Makes learning and coming to class each week exciting and enjoyable. They all offer different areas of expertise so you learn so much variety from them.
Would highly recommend!
Jeffery completed his qualification in March 2021 and is now a Personal Trainer at Fitness First Mermaid Waters.
