Jon Mann
Meet our Cardiff lead tutor, Jon Mann.
I’ve been in the leisure and education sector since I was 16 years old, starting out as a lifeguard and working my way through the ranks whilst completing various management and coaching qualifications to develop my versatility, adaptability and level of expertise.
I realised early in my career that I wanted to be more involved in the training of others, so I took my first steps in becoming a qualified assessor, completing gym, personal training, sports massage, taping and strapping qualifications, as well as keeping up my operational knowledge and development within health and safety.
I’m now one of the most senior tutors here at OriGym, where not only do I get to be at the forefront of course and learner development, but I can pass my knowledge of the education sector onto our team of tutors and assessors, and aid in their development.
Jon's Qualifications:
- Level 2 in Gym Instructing
- Level 3 in Personal Training
- Sports Massage Therapy
- Leisure Management
- Rugby Coaching
- Teaching and Assessing
- CPD Courses inlcuding; kettlebell training, circuits and many more
What do Jon's Student's Think?
Jon was amazing all the way through my Level 2 gym instructing course in Cardiff - you can tell he wants people to succeed, and everything I needed to know or wanted to ask, he answered in so much detail. Absolutely unreal knowledge, and always supportive!

Testimonials

Dean Dallas
Personal TrainerThank you for such a wonderful experience!
Before OriGym Dean was pursuing a career in football. After setbacks due to injury, Dean developed an interest in strength and conditioning and injury prevention, pivoting his career into becoming a qualified personal trainer.
OriGym really stood out to me because I was able to complete my Level 2 Gym Instructor and Level 3 Personal Trainer qualifications in my own time without deadlines. This really took the stress off and allowed me to go about my daily schedule without interruption.
The tutors at OriGym created a great support network and provided us with practical workshops to further our development. I am now a certified personal trainer and can’t wait to help future clients in achieving their goals!

Sue Evans
Fitness Instructor & Personal TrainerI love my new career!
Before joining OriGym, Sue worked in a gym as a Membership Sales Advisor. Many new members asked if Sue would be willing to train them, but as she wasn't qualified, she had to keep turning them down. Researching several companies, Sue enrolled on OriGym's Personal Training Diploma and has never looked back!
I researched many fitness courses but kept coming back to OriGym. I felt a good vibe from the team and the owners Luke and Steph are friendly & down to earth. I loved how involved they were in the courses! The course itself was AMAZING! The staff and teachers were fantastic, I really felt that they cared about me and my progress, going above and beyond what I had ever expected from them.
I’m now a confident Personal Trainer working for an international gym chain. The future looks so bright for me; I’m even enquiring about doing a season on a Cruise ship as part of the Royal Caribbean fitness team! OriGym has helped to make my dreams come true.

Guy Thompson
Former Leicester & Wasps Rugby PlayerBefore studying with OriGym, Guy was a professional Ruby player for both Wasps and Leicester Tigers and is currently playing for Eailing. Guy chose to complete his fitness qualifications with OriGym as the option to study around his career via online learning and OriGym looked the most "simple and professional" compared to other providers.
After being in and around professional sport for 13 years, this is a natural progression after learning from World Leading S&C coaches. Becoming a personal trainer will allow me to implement this knowledge for helping people and helping people achieve their goals away from sport. I'd really want to focus on helping people in their everyday lives through both mental and physical wellbeing.
OriGym's tutors have been excellent, with great feedback and the content is perfect for someone looking to get started in the industry.
