Who we are
An academy for fitness professionals
HFS Academy, part of Health and Fitness System, educates fitness professionals through systematic theory and practical training. Programmes run online and in person, so learners can build knowledge at their own pace and apply it with real clients.
More than 4,700 participants have trained with HFS across the wider HFS organisation. That figure reflects the experience behind our programmes; it is not a count of learners in the UAE.
Expert lecturers
Learn from experienced educators
HFS lecturers combine academic backgrounds in sport and exercise science with hands-on coaching experience across fitness, strength and movement education.
Practical education
Knowledge you can use with clients
Our programmes combine theoretical knowledge with practical skills in assessment, coaching, exercise technique and programme design. The goal is simple: help you teach safely, communicate clearly and train others with confidence.
International programmes
Our NASM relationship
HFS Academy is the official NASM representative for Serbia, Austria and Bulgaria. NASM, the National Academy of Sports Medicine, brings more than 35 years of experience in the fitness industry, and HFS delivers NASM education alongside programmes from other fitness education organisations.
This representation applies to those three countries. NASM certificates offered through HFS Academy UAE are awarded by NASM, and the credentials for each programme are described on its course page.
NASM Certified Personal Trainer
The online programme leads to the NASM Certified Personal Trainer credential awarded by NASM and recognised in the UAE. HFS Academy describes NASM certificates as fully accredited by EREPS.
