BCKA Instructor Douglas Hunter from the Wa Shin Kan dojo in Gateshead also runs a training Company - L&D Education, that specialises in training fitness instructors and personal trainers. 
 
Courses include; gym instructor, group exercise instructor, personal trainer and kettlebell instructor.  These are nationally recognised courses that can be a great additional offer for martial arts clubs, not to mention help learn a little more about how the body works so training can be carried out safely. 
 
The "flagship" course is the level 3 diploma in gym instructing and personal training that takes candidates from unqualified to level 3 personal trainer status.  This is done in a bespoke manner with theory sessions delivered online and practical workshops done face to face.
 
For BCKA and BCA members the price of this is £800.
