“It was great and sufficiently challenging for my level of knowledge at the beginning of the course. I really appreciated the textbook and the way it covered all systems of the human body (especially the endocrine system).
I found the nutrition section to be quite limited, and unfortunately the fitness content was generally not detailed enough. As I studied the newer information (much of the material was already familiar to me), more and more questions came up, many of which remained unanswered. Essentially, what I am trying to say is that the course is very strongly—almost entirely—focused on women’s health (which is great and well-being is the most important thing) but I feel that I am missing broader, more integrative knowledge on how to help women achieve their goals, taking into account both individual and common specifics.
That said, the course gave me a completely new perspective on women. It taught me that we are all different and helped me develop a tolerance for diversity in women and their lifestyles that I did not have before. I have definitely stopped judging others and now see things from a much more health-oriented perspective.
What you have created is truly valuable, and I would definitely recommend this course to a friend or an acquaintance who is interested in becoming a certified coach. Thank you for all the effort you have put into it.”

“I am absolutely loving the Women’s coaching specialist course ran by GGS. The videos, online resources, books and workbook have been well thought out and would suit anyone’s learning capabilities.
Being based in Australia I was a bit apprehensive if the information was going to relevant and how much knowledge I would gain.
All I can say is.. WOW ❤️ There is so much research in the information provided and having access to the student only Facebook group has been a life saver. Being able to connect with those in my area for accountability and to discuss data relevant to my country.
If you have been sitting on the fence for a while, I would say jump right in, you won’t regret it.”
Thank you so much for sharing your experience from Australia, Naomi!

“I absolutely loved this course. In the first few pages of the book, you will see all the contributors/experts from different fields and so I knew right away before diving into the course that I was going to be blown away.
I liked how indepth and thorough all the sections are. I have taken quite a few fitness courses and this one truly centers on females .
The material was well planned out and very thorough and easy to understand and apply right away. The course dove deep into topics like pelvic health, our cycles, our homones , body image, sleep etc just to name a few .
The section on program design is the best I have seen / come across and how to work with roadblocks.
The course is evidenced based and it has made me feel more confident in my training, not only my clients but also in training myself. Infact, I find myself referring to the book to keep it fresh . The online portal and the workbook is huge plus too.
I am grateful for this course and the team at GGS. I highly recommend this course.”
Thank you for sharing your experience, Jodie.
It's wonderful to hear how much you value having education designed specifically for women and how it's helping you feel more confident in your own training and coaching. It's clear you're making the most of the textbook and other resources, and it's exciting to see how engaged you are with the curriculum.
The women you work with are lucky to have a coach so dedicated to gaining knowledge and making a real impact.

“Awesome program! As a nurse of 20+ years and health coach for 3, I wasn’t sure if this would meet my knowledge expectations but I wanted to have another certification (because you just can’t have enough.. iykyk). I’m halfway through the program, actually enjoy reading the textbook, and I’m able to implement new knowledge with my clients as I’m going along.”

“I’m currently working through the GGS Women’s Coaching Specialist Certification, and it has already been such a meaningful experience. The content is practical, well thought out, and easy to apply in real coaching settings. I love that it goes beyond textbook theory and focuses on the real considerations involved in coaching women, whether 1-on-1 or in groups. I feel more confident, informed, and intentional in the way I coach. I would highly recommend this program to any coach who wants to do thoughtful, impactful work with women.”
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Ramya!

“The materials in the GGS Women's Coaching Specialist made me a more confident personal trainer. Not only do I understand how to train women better, but it improved my ability to train all my clients. The women I coach love that I can help them improve their pelvic floor awareness and strength and prepare them for the challenges of aging. My younger clients know they won't have to worry about bone density or sarcopenia because of the foundation we are building. My older clients are seeing better scores on their bone density screening and reporting feeling strong and stable while shoveling 16" of snow.
This certification taught me programming better than my actual personal training certification did.
If you are a personal trainer, do not hesitate to sign up for this certification. It will help you make a greater impact on your female clients while also helping you to earn more money doing the job you love.”
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Amy!
The Women’s Coaching Specialist Certification is rooted in evidence-based women’s health and fitness education, and it’s incredible to hear how it strengthened your ability to coach women across every stage of life.
Supporting pelvic floor awareness, bone density, and long-term strength gives your clients tools that matter now and in the future, whether they are building foundations early or feeling more stable and capable as they age.
Your experience highlights how this Certification elevates programming skills and helps you create meaningful, lasting impact for the women you coach.

“I have thoroughly enjoyed learning through the GGS certification program. It has allowed me to dive deeper into topics surrounding women’s health that I had not previously covered in my schooling. As someone who works with and coaches primarily female clients, the information is incredibly applicable to the work I do and will directly enhance my clients’ outcomes, trust, and rapport.”
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Bethany!
The Women’s Coaching Specialist Certification reflects empowerment through education, and it’s great to hear how it helped you explore women’s health topics that weren’t covered in your formal schooling.
Because you primarily coach women, applying what you learned through an evidence-based women’s health and fitness certification supports stronger client outcomes, deeper trust, and more meaningful rapport.
That kind of real-world impact shows how powerful this learning can be for both you and the women you support.

“I am about half way through my certification and absolutely blown away by the depth of knowledge shared through this certification. The best part is, it covers topics I have clients ask about regularly. It also encourages us to know and understand a women's body to be able to both empathize as well as get results, which are both so important for women.”
Thank you so much, Haleigh.
Being halfway through the Women’s Coaching Specialist Certification and already feeling blown away by the depth of information speaks to how supportive an inclusive women’s health community can be for real-world coaching. Covering topics your clients regularly ask about while helping you better understand and empathize with women’s bodies creates a strong foundation for results that actually matter.
That balance of empathy and effectiveness is powerful, and it’s exciting to see how this learning is already shaping the way you support women.
