Winchester
Sports massage and personal trainer courses near Winchester
Drivers, rail users and home learners
Three ways Winchester learners usually approach it:
- If you drive
- Chichester is usually about 45 to 50 minutes away, so the in-person sports massage course is within reach.
- If you rely on trains
- Journey planners suggest changing at Fareham, taking a little over an hour. A local group would suit you better.
- If you want to be a personal trainer
- Level 2 and Level 3 are studied online, with an in-person assessment.
Alresford, Andover and the valleys
A Winchester group would draw on New Alresford, Kings Worthy, Stockbridge and Andover. None of those has a quick rail link to Chichester, so their registrations count towards a mid-Hampshire group.
Register for the next Chichester group — dates are confirmed once it fills.
