It was wonderful experience to study at "Classic Fitness". The lessons taught by Chirag sir were very interesting and informative. The concepts explained by Shikha ma'am were just awesome. The sessions taken by Shiba ma'am were also very interactive. The students never missed out any lecture by them all. What to say about Lagan ma'am? She also made our practical lessons very interactive and interesting. Chirag Sir deserves all appreciations for his maiden efforts initiated in the field of fitness. His desire to produce master trainers in the field of fitness for the citizens of India is praiseworthy. I am confident that his efforts and hard will surely bring laurels in the world of fitness in times to come. As I have qualified this exam CPT- Certified Personal Trainer, ACE- American Council on Exercise at first attempt (16 Oct 2015). I am extremely thankful for their support.
