Manifest Fitness Institute is an in-person education and mentorship program designed for individuals who want to become confident, competent, and successful fitness professionals. Our programs focus on real-world coaching skills, hands-on training, and the business knowledge needed to thrive in the fitness industry—not just pass a test. We have partnered with multiple education providers ranging from NASM & TRX to Lionel University & AlignSmart with the goal of helping fitness professionals become industry leaders.

No prior experience is required. Manifest Fitness Institute is designed to support beginners as well as individuals already working in fitness who want to sharpen their skills, gain certifications, or improve their coaching confidence and career opportunities. However, for certain certifications or classes prior experience may be helpful. To make sure you would be a good fit for our class, please message us!

Students have the opportunity to earn industry-recognized certifications, including (but not limited to) CPT (Certified Personal Trainer), CNS (Certified Nutrition Specialist), CES (Corrective Exercise Specialist), PES (Performance Enhancement Specialist) and TRX Instructor Certification. Specific certifications and accrediting organizations can vary by cohort and will be clearly outlined before enrollment. We also offer application based one days courses such as an Online Training Class, CPR/AED Certification and classes on effective CRM strategies/management.

Manifest Fitness Institute is primarily in-person, with a strong emphasis on hands-on learning, live coaching, and practical application. Some educational materials, resources, or assignments may be provided digitally to support learning outside of class.

Program length depends on the specific course or cohort you enroll in. Our CPT course is our most extensive, 8 weeks with scheduled in-person sessions Monday through Thursday each week from 6-9:00pm. Exact dates, schedules, and time commitments will be shared prior to enrollment. Please reach out for details!

Most certification programs focus heavily on memorization and testing. Manifest Fitness Institute focuses on:

-Hands-on coaching experience

-Real-world application

-Understanding why things work, not just what to memorize

-Business, communication, and client management skills

Our goal is to produce high level fitness professionals, not just certified ones.

Yes. Manifest Fitness Institute is designed to prepare students for real-world success, whether that means working at a gym, training independently, or building your own fitness brand. We have had graduates leave our CPT cohort that go on to make $15k+/month and/or quit their 9-5 jobs.

Our goal is for every student to leave with practical skills, confidence, and mentorship that significantly improve career readiness regardless of the path they choose to take.

Manifest Fitness Institute is based in Dallas, Texas, with all in-person classes held at Manifest Dallas, 1925 E. Levee Street.

Enrollment typically begins with an application or interest form, followed by a conversation to ensure the program is the right fit. However, for weekend/one-off classes you can find enrollment links via this website!
