Hampshire
Sports massage and personal trainer courses for Hampshire
A border town for south-east Hampshire
From Emsworth, Havant, Portsmouth and Southampton there are direct Southern trains along the coast to Chichester. For learners there, sports massage in Chichester is often easier to reach than a course in the north of their own county.
Petersfield is close too, about 23 minutes by car or a train with a change at Havant. Further north the picture changes: Winchester and Basingstoke both need a change, which is why they have their own pages.
Which course, from which part of Hampshire
South Hampshire learners can travel for the hands-on course. Learners in the county can ask about current enrolment on the online personal trainer route.
