DIGITAL COURSE
The Financial Fitness Starter Course
Get the financial side of your fitness business right from the start.
You know how to coach your clients. But nobody necessarily teaches you how to manage the money side of becoming self-employed.
- How should you keep track of your income and expenses?
- What does profit actually mean?
- What should you be putting aside for tax?
- Which financial habits should you have in place each month?
- And how do you know whether your business is actually making you money?
The Financial Fitness Starter Course is a practical course for self-employed personal trainers, fitness coaches and fitness instructors who want to understand and manage the financial side of their business with more confidence.
No complicated finance speak. Just the foundations you need to understand what’s happening with your money and stay on top of it as your business grows.

When you first become self-employed, it’s easy to focus on getting clients and bringing money in. The financial admin gets pushed down the list.
The Financial Fitness Starter Course helps you put simple systems and habits in place so you can stay on top of your finances throughout the year, rather than trying to sort everything out at the end of it.
“Then suddenly you’re trying to work out what you earned, where the money went and how much of what’s sitting in your bank account actually belongs to HMRC.”
What you’ll learn
The course takes you through the financial foundations of being self-employed, including:
Getting set up as self-employed
Understand the basics of becoming self-employed, including HMRC registration, the tax year and important deadlines.
Understanding Self Assessment
Learn how Self Assessment works, what taxable income means and how Payments on Account can affect you.
Bookkeeping basics
Understand income, expenses and profit, how to keep track of your transactions and the role accounting software can play.
Everyday financial habits
Build simple routines around your business finances, including checking your records and regularly reviewing how the business is doing.
Understanding business expenses
Learn about deductible business costs and the expenses you need to think about as a self-employed fitness professional.
Planning for tax
Understand why putting money aside matters and build a system for saving towards your future tax bill.
You’ll also have practical resources to help you put what you learn into action.
Is the Financial Fitness Starter Course for you?
This course is designed for self-employed personal trainers, fitness coaches and fitness instructors who want to get better at managing the money side of their business.
It’s particularly useful if you’re relatively new to self-employment, you’ve never really been taught how to manage your business finances or you currently feel like you’re making it up as you go along.
You don’t need to become an accountant. You just need to understand enough about your numbers to run your business properly.
NOT SURE WHICH YOU NEED?
This or Self Assessment Made Simple?
They do two different jobs. Self Assessment Made Simple is focused specifically on helping you get organised and prepared for your Self Assessment.
The Financial Fitness Starter Course is broader. It helps you understand and manage your finances throughout the year, including bookkeeping, profit, expenses, financial habits and planning for tax.
If you want to build better financial foundations rather than only thinking about your finances at tax-return time, start here.
