Any qualified personal trainer, fitness coach, running coach, or group instructor operating in the UK. If you coach humans to move better, you’re welcome.

Yes — you should hold a recognised fitness or coaching qualification (e.g. Level 2/3 PT, coaching certification, or equivalent). We don’t ask for paperwork upfront, but honesty is non-negotiable.

Yes. Completely free. No subscriptions, no commission, no “starter plan that mysteriously upgrades itself later”.

Yes — creating an account helps you manage and edit your own listing. Once you’re in, you’re in. No constant logins, no drama.

Your bio, location, specialisms, session types, experience, contact details, and availability. Think of it as your shop window — polish it.

Absolutely. Small group runs, couch-to-5k, ladies-only sessions, social runs — all are encouraged.

Yes. If you operate across several areas, list them clearly so local runners can find you without guessing.

No. Any arrangements, payments, or agreements are between you and your clients. We don’t dip our beak.

Directly — via the contact details you provide (email, phone, socials, website). No middlemen, no bottlenecks.

Of course. Update prices, availability, photos, or wording anytime. Businesses evolve — listings should too.

Yes. In-person, online, hybrid — all welcome. Just be clear about what you offer so expectations are set.

FitChic is female-focused, not female-exclusive. Male coaches are welcome, as long as you respect the audience and community ethos.

We carry out light moderation and reserve the right to remove listings that appear misleading or inappropriate. This keeps standards high and trust intact.

Yes — and you should. Instagram, TikTok, websites, booking platforms… if it helps clients understand you, include it.

Yes. Intro offers, free first runs, block discounts — all sensible incentives are welcome.

Running groups, strength training, beginner fitness, confidence-building, post-natal, weight loss, and community-based training tend to perform particularly well.

FitChic promotes the platform as a whole. A strong, well-written listing gives you the best chance of being found — like a good shop sign on a busy street.

Yes. You’re in control. Take a break, go travelling, change direction — your listing can be updated or removed anytime.

Yes, provided the listing represents a genuine coaching service rather than a generic sales pitch.

Clear photos, plain English, a friendly tone, and a focus on who you help and how. No buzzwords, no nonsense — just good old-fashioned clarity.

Yes. You should hold valid public liability insurance appropriate to your services. It protects you, your clients, and everyone’s blood pressure.

Absolutely — and many do. If you specialise in beginners, return-to-fitness, or confidence-building, say so clearly. It’s a big plus.

Yes. Women-only, over-40s, post-natal, beginner groups — all welcome, as long as it’s clearly explained in your listing.

Whenever something changes — pricing, availability, locations, or focus. A fresh listing gets more attention than one that’s been gathering dust.

They’re not mandatory, but they make a big difference. Listings with real photos (you, sessions, groups) tend to get far more enquiries.

Yes. Real client feedback is encouraged — just keep it genuine. No made-up praise from “Sandra, aged 27, definitely real”.

Yes. You’re running a professional service, not a charity. Clear boundaries and suitability checks are sensible and encouraged.

We’ll review it fairly and contact you if needed. Most issues are misunderstandings and are resolved quickly and quietly.

Yes — professionalism, respect, safety, and honesty. If something would make your old tutor wince, don’t do it.

Be specific. Who you help, where you coach, and what makes you different. Clear beats clever every single time.
