Friendships built through training

Briefly News had the honour of speaking with James, a fitness instructor from Zone Fitness about the importance of keeping good relations with clients, and he shared:

"I am all for good and healthy relationships between instructors and clients, but I do not believe in befriending them as that can be misread by some people.

Just like any service provider, my job requires me to be friendly to my clients and assist them in reaching their goals, whether it is staying healthy or losing weight."

Explaining his reasoning further he added:

"Choosing to keep things professional and not extend the friendship hand for me is also a way to protect myself from getting into sticky situations that may cost me my job and reputation."

We asked James if he trains people out of his workspace and he said:

"I do train people in their home environments, and that has been very pleasant. The last lady I trained at home had just given birth and wasn't comfortable being in the gym space and we achieved the goal she wanted a few weeks than we anticipated."
