Support for every stage of your career. EMD UK memberships provide you with everything you need to succeed as a group exercise instructor or as an organisation or operator.
As the Group Exercise sector’s National Governing Body, we’ve developed membership tiers to support every stage of your group exercise career.
Whether you’re looking for resources, professional recognition, or insurance, our membership tiers will help you achieve your goals.
Being a member of EMD has been invaluable to me. As a group exercise instructor, EMD is always the first place I go to for my insurance, and also if I need help or advice regarding my fitness classes.
Running classes with confidence, keeping up with compliance, finding inspirational ideas and protecting your business is a lot to manage alone. That’s why, as the National Governing Body for group exercise, we’re here to help with a wealth of resources and training.
Our free community membership welcomes you into the largest community of instructors in the UK, while our paid memberships – from as little as £30 per year – give you all the professional tools and support you need to reach your full potential as an instructor.
Get recognised for your expertise and dedication as a group exercise instructor with EMD UK’s professional recognition. It’s not just a credential, it’s a career game-changer, opening doors to new opportunities and setting you apart in a competitive market.
From discounted PPL credits and gym gear to nutrition, training resources and CPD courses, members can access savings of up to 65% with leading brands through our marketplace.
Instructor and specialty-specific insurance gives you the confidence to deliver your work fully protected with appropriate public and product liability, professional indemnity and personal property cover.
With resources focusing on new class content ideas, marketing inspiration to help with promotion, tips on how to capture testimonials, and much more, our instructor resource hub is packed with advice and support to help your classes grow.
Your career has no limits. Our three membership tiers are tailored to give you appropriate expert support for every stage of your career.
