I studied online with BISMA, completing The Four Master Package and the Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management, and I can say it’s an excellent school. The courses are clear, well-structured, and very practical. The video assessments were especially useful — they helped me learn how to explain exercises, demonstrate proper technique, and communicate effectively with clients. Even studying online, I felt fully supported by the assessors and truly prepared for real work in the fitness industry. I highly recommend BISMA to anyone looking for high-quality, professional training that combines theory with real practical experience.

An Exceptional Teacher Who Makes All the Difference! I cannot speak highly enough of my experience at Bisma School, largely thanks to my incredible teacher, Andreas.From the very first lesson Andreas created a welcoming and engaging environment. Their passion for teaching is evident in every class. They have a unique talent for explaining complex concepts in a simple, understandable way, and they are always patient and encouraging. What I appreciate most is their ability to tailor the lessons to my specific needs and learning style. They don't just follow a textbook; they bring the language to life with interactive activities, real-world examples, and cultural insights. Thanks to their dedicated guidance, my confidence and fluency have improved dramatically. Bisma School is lucky to have such a talented educator. I wholeheartedly recommend both the school and Andreas to anyone looking to learn effectively and enjoyably.

Completed my L1 & L2 at the Waterloo location. Comfortable facilities, walking distance from tube station, use of The Gym Group next door for the practical aspects of the course. Andre, the coach, was very approachable and patient with all students, due to the diversity of knowledge within the classroom. He was polite at all times, answered all questions that were thrown at him. You felt that he had every-ones best interest at heart and gave you the confidence to want to engage across the scope of the course/s.

  • Important Information: There have been some websites recently claiming to be the revived REPS. We have tried to gain more information about this; however, CIMSPA and UK Coaching have not confirmed the sale of REPS to anyone. These websites don’t seem to provide sufficient information about the purchase of their company or any other details regarding their relationship with Ofqual or UK Coaching. Additionally, they don’t appear to be recognised by any regulatory Awarding Bodies in the UK. Once we have more information about these websites, we will update this page. For now, we recommend all our UK learners to contact CIMSPA before making a decision on joining a registration body.
