Wellbeing Fitness Education Centre was founded by Ian Ryves with a single conviction: that the best way to train a personal trainer is in a real, working fitness facility, alongside coaches who deliver hundreds of sessions to real clients every single week.

Ten years on, we operate across Towcester and Brackley, employ 13 full-time personal trainers, and deliver over 800 client sessions every month. Every student who trains with us benefits from that environment — not a simulation of it. When you qualify here, you are genuinely ready to work.

Shannon Evans November 2026

I attended Andy’s Level 3 Sports Massage course and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I genuinely looked forward to getting up every Sunday to attend! Andy is an excellent teacher, incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. The course content and workbooks were also really well put together and provided a great foundation for learning. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to get into sports massage!

Gina Wall November 2026

I completed the level 3 sports massage course through Wellbeing Fitness, taught by Andy Cross. Highly recommend! Fantastic course and as a physio this has really enhanced my practice. Andy is a brilliant teacher and makes the course a mixture of really enjoyable whilst equipping you with excellent hands on techniques

Paul Willis November 2026

Excellent course with plenty of hands on practical work. The instructor (Andy) was excellent with a wealth of knowledge and experience to pass on. Would highly recommend and I’ll be back to take my Level 4 next year

Nathan Graves November 2026

Great sports massage course. Andy was a great tutor, going into detail on everything that needed to be covered, and took the time to answer questions in detail. Would highly recommend.
