I've just qualified as a PT and I'm looking for my first work placement in a gym/ boxing gym around Derby, Nottingham and Sheffield. I'm also offering one on one sessions too If you know of anything or anyone around this area I would really appreciate any info. I've trained for months and finally got my qualification and I'm currently looking for a gym to work at but it's been difficult. I just need someone to give me a chance. Thanks guys.
Thanks for being so helpful to the guy. It's a boxing forum, alright. The job centre is where YOU should be......:-(
Was only joking pal, good luck with it. Ring your local amateur clubs and start from there. You may need to work for free in a boxing club for a while I would think before anyone will start paying you for your service, just a thought. Best out there gaining experience on the ground for free than not doing anything.
Yeah I'm going to send out letters to every club and gym around my area today. Boxing is where I wanna be though
Ever heard of a joke Len? Oh and I do just ok in my job but thanks for the advice :good Your reply was JUST as much help to him as mine by the way :roll:
I think you will struggle to walk into a paid job in a boxing gym to be honest pal. IMO you should maybe try and earn with one to one PT sessions whilst also working for a local gym for free to build up your experience aswell as contacts.
Probably too far out of your way but my gym (not a boxing gym though) are hiring in Leeds for a PT, or were last week
Yeah that kind of my plan tbh. I'm only down the road from the ingle gym and literally 2 mins from shinfields gym so I'll hopefully get some experience there. That would be amazing. It's just about getting out there. Hence why I made the thread. I'll get there...
