"Working with Stu has been amazing. It’s impossible for Stu to get frustrated or impatient with anyone. It doesn't matter if you need something explained for the tenth time, he will still answer you as calmly as he did the first time. Although, that being said, he does explain things really well anyway but just has the patience in case something just wasn’t clicking. And studying can be very boring, monotonous and tedious. Unless, Stu was teaching you. He has the ability to turn the most boring thing into something fun which was great for the theory side. "

"There is a real buzz around T2 training that makes you want replicate this in your delivery in order to be recognised the same way as T2 is. T2's courses are very interactive - even the online ones. Training with T2 makes me feel valued and part of a wider family, I get a real sense that Stu and all his instructors would help any of their former students out after they are qualified and conducting training for others."
"Since taking my Level 3 Personal Training Course with T2, I've successfully joined the Les Mills UK Trainer and Presenter Team. I've travelled the world filming fitness workouts, educating others and modelled the Les Mills x Reebok co-branded apparel. The most rewarding part is that I get to do what I love for a living."
"Shortly after retiring from professional football in 2012, I took my Level 3 Personal Qualification with T2 Fitness Education. Since then, I've created a successful business that helps young people with behavioural/mental difficulties to see the value in themselves and in healthy living. I can recommend T2 to anyone looking to become a Personal Trainer."
"I completed my Personal Training courses with T2 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The guys were so professional, helpful and I felt at ease to ask any question no matter how silly! Notwithstanding their wealth of knowledge and experience, the guys presented the course in a detailed but easy to follow manner. I would highly recommend T2 to anyone wanting to embark on a career in fitness!"
"All courses I have taken with T2 have been professionally ran, easy to follow with instructors who have excellent knowledge in all aspects of the course material. Being a slightly older student, Stu was happy to help with any questions I had at any time which was key for me having a separate full time job. Thanks to T2, I am now a group training instructor for indoor cycling, you can tell they love doing what they do."
"I chose T2 because they were highly recommended. I have done both classroom based and online learning with them and they were fantastic. The in-person courses are packed full of information that is put across in a way that you can understand. Likewise, the online learning is very engaging and easy to follow. Stu is on hand to answer any questions, queries and always willing to help you."
"The thing that sets T2 apart is the level of support that I have had right from the moment I tentatively contacted Stu. As every stage, I felt like I had a team behind me who really wanted to see me succeed and be become a great PT. It has made an enormous difference, and I still feel that I am part of a community. I think that I have been set up for success, and I can’t wait to really get going with my business."
