An English-speaking personal trainer in Osaka who comes to you. Osaka · Kobe · Kyoto · Nara · Online nationwide

A trainer comes to wherever you want to train for one-to-one coaching — a rental gym near you, your home, an apartment gym, office gym, hotel gym or private gym. If you can train there, we can coach there, as long as the venue allows outside trainers.

Yes — this is very common. There are hourly rental gyms all over the region with full equipment and no membership or contract. Tell us your nearest station and we'll suggest one and meet you there. Your apartment building's gym, your office, your hotel gym and our private Esaka studio all work too.

Yes. Coaching, programme design, form checks, and diet and lifestyle advice are all in English, and so is everything before that — your first enquiry, the consultation and booking. No Japanese required. Most of our English-speaking clients are expats, international families and visitors to Japan.

You don't need a membership with us. Japanese gyms usually ask you to sign up in Japanese and follow house rules written in Japanese, which is where most people get stuck. With FIT STAGE you can train at our private studio in Esaka (Suita), or we come to your home, apartment gym, office or hotel — no membership, no Japanese paperwork.

A trial session is ¥6,600 (60 minutes, tax included). After that, a 60-minute session is ¥9,900, with packs and monthly plans available. There is no enrolment fee, and travel is included in Osaka City, North Osaka (Suita, Toyonaka, Minoh, Ibaraki, Takatsuki) and the Hanshin area (Amagasaki, Nishinomiya, Ashiya, east Kobe).

Prices vary widely. Many personal gyms here sell two- or three-month packages costing hundreds of thousands of yen upfront. FIT STAGE is pay-as-you-go: start with a ¥6,600 trial, then choose single sessions, packs or a monthly plan. Our guide to personal training costs in Japan goes through this in detail.

In Kansai, FIT STAGE: our trainers coach entirely in English and come to you across Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto and Nara, or you can train at our private Esaka studio. For Kobe, Ashiya and Nishinomiya see our English-speaking personal trainer in Kobe page. Elsewhere in Japan, we coach online over Zoom.

Across Osaka, Hyogo, Kyoto and Nara. Travel is included in the session price in Osaka City, North Osaka (Suita, Toyonaka, Minoh, Ibaraki, Takatsuki) and the Hanshin area (Amagasaki, Nishinomiya, Ashiya, east Kobe); elsewhere, a travel fee may apply and we'll quote it before booking. Anywhere else in Japan, we coach online over Zoom.

Yes. Most gyms here want a membership or limit day passes, so we come to you instead — your hotel gym where the hotel allows outside trainers, or your room with bodyweight and band exercises. One 60-minute session in English, with no contract and no package.

Yes. When we train at your own home, tattoos are no problem at all. Apartment, hotel and rental gyms set their own policies, so we check first — and if you'd like a rental gym, we'll find one that allows tattoos.

Yes. Bodyweight and stretch-based programmes work well, and we bring what the session needs. A clear 2 × 2 m space is enough to get started. If you later want equipment at home, we can design and install it for you.

Yes. Many of our clients are complete beginners, and we work with people in their 60s, 70s and 80s. Sessions are adapted to your experience and current condition.

Yes. Two-person sessions are available, and the price is for the two of you together.

Free until midnight the day before. Same-day cancellations and missed appointments count as one session.

Yes. On-site training, group sessions, office-gym installation and online coaching for remote staff. We also support Health & Productivity Management certification and provide subsidy consultation.
