Student Review

ISA has been very welcoming in introducing all of their courses and supportive in my fitness career and journey to be a health and wellness educator and provider. Have always have good comments of the team, especially, Raymond, Fion, Joel and Crystal 😀

I recommend International Sports Academy (ISA) for all aspiring fitness professionals

Great instructors for the CSCS Course! Raymond is an amazing lecturer who is super knowledgeable and knows how to break down the topics into bite sized info for all of us- truly enjoyed the lectures and practicals

The CSCS course was a short yet a very comprehensive course conducted by ISA. It provides alot of insight for one who are keen in performing the role as a coach or trainer.

The intructor, Raymond Wang (Duty Diredtor) and Andrew, had conduct the teaching session both via zoom and physical teaching. Mr Raymond was very details and specific on his teaching while Andrew was more generalise in term of teaching. However, both have did a good job in delivering the topic in the 5 days of teaching. I want to thank them and appreciate their time for giving and sharing! Kudos to all!

10/10 would recommend anyone interested in greatly expanding & improving their practical/hands-on skills for sports massage to join the course. Instructors are very knowledgeable and skilful. Great course to undergo for sports therapists, masseurs and physiotherapists.

I love that the 1-day course on Elderly Exercise is condensed to the important points, carried out at the right pace for people of all experiences, and the material is very real-life without being too textbook.

Our instructor Dominic is also very interactive and engaging, and makes sure everyone is not stressed about whether they are giving the “right” or “wrong” answers.

Took Basic Sport Massage course under Faizul and his team. All coaches very experience, very helpful, very friendly & very funny! The course are simple to understand too!
I took the Basic sport massage with ISA under Faizul. Really enjoy the course because Faizul is very knowledgeable and conducting the course in a very fun and easy way. I would strong encourage this course to anyone who want to learn sport massage .

Fion and her team in ISA is responsive and clear in their reply to my questions. Highly appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 The ISA Basic Sports Massage (BSM) course (June 2023) & the ISA-Qinetic Rehab Exercise and Therapy Specialist (RETS) Course were helpful, informative. Faizul & his team (BSM) & Kwan & his team (RETS) were professional & helpful.

Kwan is an awesome and passionate instructor with a clear vision for educating and mentoring future therapists. An insightful course that perfectly complements my sports massage training, enhancing the support I can offer to both current and future clients. I highly recommend these and other courses, as they will greatly benefit anyone interested in rehab therapy and helping others.
