What to look for in a Durban personal trainer
- Certifications — look for ICF, NASM, ACE, REPS Africa, RSA-registered biokineticists, or sport-specific federations.
- Specialty fit — a strength coach is different from a yoga instructor or running coach. Filter by what you actually want to do.
- Reviews and consistency — read at least three recent reviews. A trainer with sustained 4.5+ ratings is a safer bet than someone with two perfect reviews from one week.
- Logistics — confirm location, equipment, parking and whether sessions can be virtual if you travel.
