HFE Avis 

Thank you so much to my amazing tutor Danielle for all her support and encouragement throughout my reformer course. I’m now a qualified reformer teacher yay!

Had Karen as my Practical Tutor and she is absolutely fantastic! Extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and very kind. Danielle (online tutor) is also fab. Thank you to both 🫶

I have just completed my Level 3 Mat Pilates course with HFE and would recommend.

My online support tutor Eleana was great, very supportive and helpful. Eleana has so much knowledge in the Pilates / fitness industry. Eleana helped me with any questions I had during the course and was very supportive and patient in helping me with my coursework and my practical exam prep.

The in person training dates with Tracey and Sarah were very thorough and enjoyable. Tracey and Sarah were supportive and had an extent of Pilates knowledge so I felt ready for my practical exam and to teach classes.

I recently completed my mat Pilates instructor training with HFE (as well as my reformer course which I need to finish).

I did my training in February/March with Claire. It was a virtual course and it was okay but could do with a lot of improvements as it wasn’t very in depth and we were kind of just left to ‘wing it’ with our final assessments. Another lady popped on the call in the second week but I’m not 100% sure of her name and she was great.

However, I did my reformer course in person with dawn and she was absolutely brilliant! Couldn’t recommend her enough, she was so knowledgeable and informative.

HFE have been so lovely, I was in contact mostly with Molly Marsden and she is the most loveliest girl ever, so kind and chatty and so willing to help, really lovely girl.

Overall I would recommend the Pilates course with HFE but not virtually, it would have to be in person.

I have just finished level3 teacher training mat Pilates with HFE. I enjoyed the whole program very well organized, great support from my tutor Molly Marsden. And also Caire Roberts for making the weekend’s training a fun experience. The whole curriculum was very well structured.

Wonderful, all the tutors in person and online were amazing. Loads of support is given throughout, I would recommend to anyone wanting to get qualified.

I have given it 2 stars because when you actually get hold of someone they are great, also the content and 2 days workshop are well executed. However the management of the support team is shockingly bad. 1 week before my practical exams there were no Reformer tutors as they were both on holiday at the same time! Although I did pass they then did not make contact for 8 days until I managed to get someone to pick up . Good team very badly managed or possibly understaff and over sold on the courses. I have a number of other courses to do and will not be using HFE.

Was a little bit iffy when starting . Did get some great feedback from Danielle and Katy and Dawn. Did struggle with my video but 2nd attempt and got it .
My experience nearer the end was very stressful but it didnt help time was running out and I had strict goals for myself .
Hfe was happy to move the date to relief pressure .
Overall I say it was a good experience and I went into this with no instructor experience at all . Only by being a participant in classes .
Bottom line is yes things are tough but you can get through it . Yes hfe do like their work to be of a highier standards unlike some companies who can push numbers through quickly . but believe me if I can do it anyone can . Im happy that ive passed with hfe because I now know ive trained to a higher standards then most companies .

The in person teaching was useful and informative.
The online assessments were awful and very inconsistent with the answers. I found alot of the 'correct answers' were factually incorrect when compared to text books and reliable web resources.
I also found the support horrendous. I had submitted pieces of work which would then be referred with some of the feedback indicating that i had not included things that i did infact include. After submitting it again without amendments to these points, i miraculously passed. Im not the only person to experience this. In the mean time i was ringing constanty trying to get some support about it all and it took me a week to get hold of someone despite trying every number multiple times. I then was emailed with instructions to call to book my viva, which took me another week to finally get hold of someone. When it finally came to my viva, i missed the phone call by a couple of minutes, i called back instantly and yet again was unable to get through. I called back to back over 20 times until my support tutor finally answered, considering atleast 10 minutes should have been set aside for my viva and i called well within this slot, and was told that as my slot has passed i would need to rebook.
Many other people on my course have also complained about the difficulty of contacting support tutors.
Maybe something needs to change.

Very comprehensive curriculum, website was easy to navigate at all stages, be it accessing information or completing assessments. Supportive tutor, accessible and helpful at all points.

In short, I feel I have achieved a robust and valuable qualification, underpinned by an excellent knowledge base and great teaching.

I had an amazing time using HFE for my qualification ! A massive extra shout out to Eleana my support tutor who was constantly answering my questions, and giving me advice to achieve this

My journey with HFC has been and is amazing. The support that I have been receiving is outstanding. My tutor Eleana is fantastic she has been there every step of the way it's life changing the amount i have learnt i know this knowledge will give me the opportunity to be a great PT. All staff at HFE have the knowledge to provide you with the very best. A big thank you to Katie, Danielle, and Tom for your support you provided you guys are amazing friendly and supportive tutors also.

I recommend HFE you will gain the best knowledge and support on your journey.

Excellent content, they provided a really good online portal and a great course handbook as well. Staff were excellent, attentive and very knowledgeable and supportive. Shout out to Tom for his flexibility, supportive attitude and help throughout :)

This is my 3rd course with HFE and I have always received amazing service from start to finish. The enrolment was quick and easy and I was able to start straight away. My tutor Tom was always on hand when needed and the generally I couldn’t fault anything with the staff or service. Thank you HFE……5 stars 🌟

Loved course platform, very informative, videos were engaging, they also sent a physical book to read to support learning process, tutors support was excellent too, my tutor was Tom Hothersall, te experience was amazing and I highly recommend

I had a really positive experience completing my Level 3 Personal Training course with HFE. The course was well structured, informative, and gave me the knowledge and confidence needed to progress into personal training. My support tutor, Tom, was also extremely helpful throughout the course and was always quick to answer any questions I had and provide guidance when needed.

The L3 mat pilates course is well structured and I found the instructors really knowledgeable and my support tutor, Molly, was very encouraging and helpful along the way! Overall enjoyed the course!

Loved every minute, really helpful and always their if you are struggling with anything.

I really enjoyed the face to face assessment day. It was a pleasure working with the instructors and all the other participants. I wish I had completed my course face to face, just because I feel the interactions with other participants would have been helpful.
