References for Stuart Greaves

Stuart has made a significant impact on my life by providing me with honest and critical feedback on my journey through cert 3 & 4 in fitness. His expertise is certainly evident and this is well expected from the amount of years he’s dedicated to the fitness industry both as a PT and manager. He is fair and diplomatic as well as understanding. Thanks for teaching me important principles and lessons I can take into the rest of my life.

I have known Stuart Greaves for around 8 years, we first met when I studied the Certificate IV in Fitness at TAFE and he was one of my lecturers. Stuart was an amazing lecturer, his knowledge of the course and fitness industry helped me to land my first job, and gave me the confidence to open my own business, which I own and operate today as a small boutique PT studio in the northern suburbs of Perth. I still keep in contact with Stuart and he acts as a mentor when I have tough decisions to make, he always gives a a valuable perspective on things and helps me to make good business decisions.

Since becoming a client of Stuart's over 10 years ago, he has helped me to improve my health and fitness to levels I never thought possible. From someone who struggled to get up a decent set of stairs to completing a marathon with him in little over 18 months, it has felt like there were no limits to what I could achieve. I have now also taken up participating in masters competitions for a variety of sport, and am the strongest, fittest and lightest I have been, probably since my early 20s. I can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you Stuart for truly changing my life.

As my direct line manager, it was Stuart’s job to be my business and practical skills mentor, as I started running my own business for the first time in a new industry. Stuart went well beyond those duties helping with advice, and support for me to eventually open a retail and supplement store within the club, as well as running a PT business. He was also an invaluable mentor to me as I took on six apprentice Personal Trainers over a period of time, becoming a successful mentor myself. There have also been many others who have worked closely with Stuart who have gone on to become successful mentors, managers and fitness center owners

To whom it may concern, I am writing this reference on behalf of Stuart Greaves. He was my Lecturer throughout Certificate 3 and 4 in Fitness at North Metropolitan Tafe. Stuart was always very organised and taught me everything I needed to know about The Fitness Imdustry. He was always willing to offer me extra support, should I need to know anything and would always happily delve deeper into additional knowledge, when I would require it. He supported me through always giving me feedback within my assignments and always marked assessments within the required time frame. He'd also offer helpful techniques when I queried about posture and muscle imbalances and how to fix them.

Stuart was one of my favourite lecturers at TAFE, he always scheduled our work very well (which helped us feel less stressed at the end of the semester.) He was always professional and friendly and made his classes interactive and informative. He was always willing to stay back and schedule extra hours for us to see him and work on our assignment as well as answer any questions we had, he always listened to us if we had any concerns and delt with it in an appropriate manor.

Stuart was my lecturer in Certificate 3 & 4 in Fitness at North West Metropolitan Tafe. I found Stuart to be a valuable learning resource through his extensive knowledge of the industry and the modules he assessed throughout the course. Emphasis on trainer preparation, understanding the client needs and acting in a professional manner were key to his teachings. His guidance has set me up to become a personal trainer which I have been doing usefully since graduating. I can highly recommend Stuart to anyone looking for his expertise in the fitness industry.

I’m writing this in recommendation of Stuart Greaves’ application for Fitness registration. Stu was my supervisor as an intern, and then a junior strength and conditioning coach with NRL WA. Stu fostered my deep interest the field, and seamlessly taught me skills indirectly that I only learnt the value of years after I’d left. He’s a great teacher, and is able to simplify concepts to coaches, players and parents alike, whilst also still being a great technical sounding board for me as an up and coming coach.
