Hey, my name is Charlotte Nolan,

I have played and participated in sports my whole life. I am a member of Sunshine Beach Surf Life Saving club and have competed for them in surf life saving for over10 years at an Australian level. I have also represented QLD in swimming and Sunshine Coast in netball and water polo.

I am currently doing my cert III in fitness, through Fitnance and it has been great. Since starting I have learnt so much and hope to continue this course out over the year and maybe even continue on to a cert IV next year.

Mitch has been such a good teacher and I have loved getting close with the others taking part in the course.

Hey, I'm Kelly Dillon and a current student at St Teresa's Catholic College in Noosa. I play a number of different sports including rugby union, netball and touch football. With rugby being my main sport I have had the opportunity to be on two undefeated teams, and play in the sevens team at the old Queensland Reds stadium, also I had a once in a lifetime opportunity to have a sevens coaching session by the Australian men & women sevens team. Currently I am completing my Cert III in fitness, with Fitnance.I hope that by completing this course it provides me with opportunities related to all different types of sporting careers.

Trainee: Ben Woods

Hello,
I am Ben Woods, current student at St Teresa's Catholic College in Noosa Heads. I am 16 years old, and I enjoy playing sport a lot. I play AFL and I am a current member at Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club and compete in Iron Man events, Beach Sprints and Flags. This Fitnance course is perfect for me, I love to play sport, keep fit and work out, but the bonus here is that I get payed for it. The group of people that I am doing this course with are incredible too, we all get along and work together when Mitch gives us weird, crazy questions we have no clue about. I someday wish to be a personal trainer, which can take me all over the world, train all kinds of people and see lots of amazing things. I would like to thank Mitch Bich for training us in Noosa every week and to everyone at Fitnance for organising everything and setting all of this up.
Cheers.

Trainee: Peter Breid

Hello, I'm Peter Breid. I am currently attending year 12 at St. Teresa's Catholic College in Noosa. I enjoy sports such as Grid-iron, Baseball, Soccer and Basketball. I began my certificate 3 in Fitness with Fitnance in late February 2012, I enjoy this course very much because of the opportunities it offers in workplaces around the world, and the benefits it provides during the duration of the course. I hope in the following years, to utilise the skills i've obtained throughout this course and seize the unlimited opportunities that the course has and will prepare me for. Even though at the moment I hope to one day enlist in the Unite States Marine Corps, this qualification gives me many ideas as to what alternative options could be :)
Thanks to Mitch and everyone at Fitnance

Lachlan Woods - Trainee

Hi I’m Lachlan Woods, a year 12 student at Brisbane State High School currently doing my Cert III at Fitnance, which has been really enjoyable and a great experience so far. I play a number of different sports with my main sport being AFL. I play for the Western Magpies and have done for the past 7 years. This year I have started the U18 season and have been lucky enough to be called up to play for the Senior and Reserve teams at the club. I have also been lucky enough to be called up by the Brisbane Lions and asked to play in the Lions Reserves team at the Gabba as the pre game to the Brisbane Lions vs Western Bulldogs match. The chance to play at the Gabba was huge but to be able to play for the Lions Reserves at the same time was massive, so as you can imagine I accepted without any hesitation. From the warm up to the warm down, it was an awesome experience, whilst being coached by former Brisbane Lion, Craig McRae for the day. We ended up losing our game to the reigning premiers Morningside but the experience was one I will never forget.
