Kinesiology Training Bristol

Become a fully qualified Kinesiologist on completion of this course!  The content has been independently verified by the CNHC (Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council) Professional Standards Authority.

How is the Diploma Course taught? 

The course consists of 180 hours (24 days) of face-to-face training, usually across one weekend per month for 12 months. 

Class sizes are kept to a maximum of 6 students to allow for the most effective learning and mentoring.

All modules include practical demonstrations and plenty of time for workshopping.

In addition, you will be expected to undertake home study of approximately 1-2 hours per week.  You will also need to carry out 50* case studies.

*Please note, the 50 case studies don't have to be on 50 different people, which I know can sound daunting!; You could choose to work on the same 10 people, 5 times over the duration of the course. 

The course concludes with a final practical assessment and written paper including some multiple choice questions. 

What is the investment?

The total investment is £4,950 which includes the final assessment and exam fee. 

There are 2 payment options:

1. Payment in full: £4,500* (inclusive of a £750 non-refundable deposit) payable in advance up to 1 month before the course starts (*saving £450).

2. Instalment option: £750 non-refundable deposit payable up to 1 month before the course starts, plus £420 x 10 payable 1 week before each of Modules 1 - 10 (total £4,950). 

Placeholder deposit: As places are limited, once you know you want to go ahead and enrol, it is advisable to complete your booking form and pay a nominal £100 fee to secure your place. This is deducted from the full course amount. 

Terms of Payment

The cost of the course is set by the Kinesiology Association (KA) and is the same for all KA courses that are run in the UK.

Deposits, which are payable to enrol, are non-refundable in the event of you changing your mind. If the course is cancelled by the tutor or other external influence beyond control, the deposit will be refunded.

Please note: Payments made either in full or in instalments are a commitment to complete the course. This is a requirement because the decision to proceed with the course is dependent on the number of students. This means that course fees are not refundable or transferable in the event of you changing your mind to continue with the training.
