Might be a long shot here, but I am curious if there are any fitness trainers who came to Thailand for work? I am a personal trainer and I am curious to know what your expectations have been like.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the challenges foreign personal trainers face in Thailand, primarily due to stringent visa and work permit regulations. Participants share their views on employment prospects in the fitness industry, noting that personal training is often considered a prohibited occupation for foreigners. Some suggest that aspiring trainers either establish their own gyms with local hires to circumvent legal barriers or seek opportunities at specific gyms that may employ foreign trainers, such as CrossFit and F45 locations. Overall, the consensus indicates that while there are limited opportunities, success often relies on navigating visa requirements and understanding the local market.
