What Do Our Past Students Have to Say?
Having just completed my Certificate III in Fitness with Woman's Fitness Education, I can confidently say I am loving the journey so far. The flexibility of online learning and the convenience of Practical Intensive weekends have allowed me to fit my studies in between parenting and working.
Dani and Mish at WFE supportive, knowledgeable, and exude the best positive energy. They have created a wonderfully supportive network for women studying fitness education. I can't wait to get started on my Cert IV and complete the bonus CEC courses. My only regret is that I didn't start sooner!
If you've been putting off fitness studies because you think you can't get it done or don't have the time, my advice is to come to WFE and just make a start. I'm sure you'll love it as much as I do.
KATRINA
I recently completed my Cert III in Fitness and am in the process of finishing my Cert IV with Women's Fitness Education (WFE). My experience has been incredibly positive! The flexibility to study at my own pace has been amazing, and even though the course is online, I never feel alone.
The community that Dani and Mish have created is one of the most supportive and encouraging environments I've been a part of. They genuinely care about your success, and it shows in everything they do.
One of the biggest bonuses of studying with WFE is the additional courses available related to women's health, which is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to work in the fitness industry.
The facilitators and assessors are readily available, and any queries or assessment marking are dealt with promptly and professionally.
I highly recommend WFE to any women looking to study fitness. You're learning from the best in the business, and you won’t regret it!

I recently completed my Certificate III in Fitness with WFE, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The course was incredibly well structured and easy to navigate, making the entire learning journey smooth and stress-free.
The workload was very manageable, which made it easier to stay on track without feeling overwhelmed. I genuinely found the course fun and enjoyable, and it kept me motivated from start to finish.
The modules were laid out in a logical and easy to understand format, which really helped me grasp the key concepts and build my confidence.
For anyone looking to get into the fitness industry, I highly recommend studying with WFE. It’s a great place to start your journey and set a strong foundation for your future in fitness.
AMANDA
I just completed my Certificate III through Women’s Fitness Education, and honestly found it so easy, supportive and rewarding. I had access to complete the entire course at my own pace, and found the team at WFE very helpful and knowledgeable. I am a working Mum with a baby and a toddler and managed study around my family and other commitments due to the flexibility of the course. I’m already straight into my Cert IV!
BAILEY
I recently completed my Certificate 3 with Women’s Fitness Education and it was a great experience! The trainers were super friendly and their communication was extremely prompt and efficient. I liked how the classes were structured— with a mix of theory, case studies and practical components and there were plenty of resources that I could use and refer back to. I got a lot from the intensive practical weekend too- the group atmosphere was amazing; everyone cheered each other on, making it a fun environment to be in.
If you’re looking for a supportive and engaging fitness course, I would recommend checking this one out- especially if you have an interest in working with women.

LUCY
I have just completed my Cert 3 with WFE and am moving onto my Cert 4 happily! The course was so easy to understand and access at all times. Assessors where so helpful, including Mish and Dani who are always reaching out and assisting with additional webinars for further knowledge. I would recommend WFE for anyone wanting to focus on female fitness, busy mums, full time workers or anyone trying to get the most out of something in their spare time. Self paced and so easy to take your time or smash it out as you please! Can’t recommend them enough!
CLARA
I have just completed my Cert III with Women’s Fitness Education and it has been a fantastic experience - I am now doing my Cert IV with them!
While many places might offer this online qualification, Women's Fitness Education is different due to two key factors:
(1). They really build a community both online via the Facebook Group and in person via meet ups and practical intensives.
(2). The additional focus on women's fitness is fantastic. I have learnt so much from the monthly webinars and feel like I am building up an area of speciality that will set me apart.
I would recommend this course to all women but particularly to women who want to focus on training other women. You will learn loads and feel truly supported.
NICOLE
WFE has been a fantastic supportive group. I have just completed my cert 3 in Fitness with them and now moving onto my cert 4. The online system and education team they use is easy to navigate and provides fantastic support through each subject and module. My most favourite part of WFE so far is the monthly webinars they hold. Each month is a really unique and yet important topic that has been a source of great education and awareness for me. I appreciate that if I can't get on to it live I have the ability to watch the recording at any time. I highly recommend if you are looking to train women at all throughout your fitness professional career that you chose Women's Fitness Education.

JULIE
I completed cert 3 in Fitness with Women's Fitness Education. I wasn't sure whether I was making the right choice, but after talking to Dani from WFE, I decided to go ahead. The best decision I ever made! 100% flexible study option means I could juggle my study in between full time work and family life. I completed the course in 3 months and now continuing with Cert 4. I found the facilitators/educators very supportive and responsive to queries. 100% recommend it!
