Personal Statement

I am currently searching for vacancies as a Fitness Instructor within London or Surrey.

I have worked in the Fitness industry for 18 1/2 years and I recently was rewarded for 10 years loyal service for my role as a Fitness Instructor from my present employer.

I now feel that the time is right to move to a new employer where I can share my experience and training that I have gained over the years and further my skills in a new role. I have no previous experience in being a Fitness Supervisor but I am happy to apply for this position as well as a Fitness Instructor if no previous experience is required as I am willing and keen to learn all about this type of role to further my career.

I am an extremely loyal, reliable, dedicated and commited employee. During my time at The Club, I am proud that I have obtained the same clients for long periods of time, ranging from ages 18yrs - 90 yrs old due to my approachable and friendly manner and aim to assist all members in achieving their fitness goals.

I am happy to send you a covering letter with more information about myself if required or discuss my experience to date and my goals in person or on the telephone.

I hope to hear from you soon.
