Testimonials
Excellent course materials. Very impressed with the course, it was motivational

CBE Student - Exercise Instructor
Since qualifying as a PSI in May 2004 I have set up 4 classes working for Selby and York Primary Care Trust.These classes run alongside my job as a community nurse and EXTEND teacher. I am exercising with up to 60 people per week. Reassessments show good results. Balance, leg strength, confidence in walking as well as the socialising opportunity. I have waiting lists for all classes and enough people in one area to start another class.

Angie Hampton, Exercise Instructor
Very useful to understand all the barriers that many
older people have in taking part in rehabilitation exercise - and be given
skills to work on breaking down those barriers
