Why English + Exercise

Four reasons to transform your English and your body

A dorm living environment that sets the rhythm of your eating, sleeping and exercise. Learning English and fitness share the same structure: reaching a goal.

01

A dedicated personal trainer

Your trainer designs an individual program. Serious 2-hour workouts, 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday and Friday), with guidance tailored to your goals.

02

Unlimited gym use

You can train on your own beyond the 2 hours, with unlimited access to the gym. In your free time on Tuesdays and Thursdays, or on weekends, you always have a place to move at your own pace.

03

English classes almost identical to the ESL Course

4 one-on-one classes + 1 group class = 5 classes a day. A balanced design that lets you improve your English solidly while combining it with exercise.

04

Meals that are easy to plan

The dorm provides your 3 meals a day, which stabilizes your meal and sleep schedule. During your stay you will build a disciplined routine that maximizes your training results.

⚠

This course is exclusively for ages 18 and over

For safety reasons and because of the nature of trainer-led instruction, the English + Exercise Course is only available to people aged 18 or older. If you are 17 or younger, we recommend considering another course.

Frequently asked questions

Is it okay if I am a beginner at exercise?

Yes, the trainer will design an individual program for you. Even if you are starting from zero sports experience, you will begin with stretching and warm-up and gradually increase the intensity. You will receive guidance adapted to your goal, whether it is “I want to lose weight,” “I want to build muscle” or “I want to stay in shape.”

What English level is recommended?

The English class content is almost the same as the ESL Course. In the level assessment on arrival you are placed in one of the 6 levels, so the course is suitable from beginners to advanced learners. It is designed with a balance of 5 classes a day so you can combine it with exercise.

Does the trainer speak English or Japanese?

Communication is mainly in English. Many fitness terms are universal, and the trainer also uses gestures, so even beginners in English can train without problems. In fact, there is an added benefit: learning “English expressions used in the gym.”

Should I bring protein or supplements?

If you take them regularly, we recommend bringing them with you. They can also be bought in Cebu, but the available brands are limited and sometimes more expensive than in Japan. Since the dorm offers 3 balanced meals a day, they are usually used only as a complement.

Is there exercise on Tuesdays and Thursdays?

There is no trainer-led training on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Instead, you can use the gym without limit to continue training on your own. You can also add a one-on-one English class for 1,000 PHP/week (subject to availability on-site).

What happens if I get injured?

If you get injured during training, the trainer and school staff will take care of you. If necessary, they will accompany you to a medical center in Cebu City. International travel insurance is essential (we recommend one that covers gym use and sports activities).

When are the start days?

Basically, every Monday. On the first day, an entrance level test and an orientation take place, so there are no classes or training. Training starts on the first Monday, Wednesday or Friday from the following Tuesday.
