Celtic Academy is a results driven Life Changing Training facility based at the world famous Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, South Wales. A facility that would rival many professional sports clubs is open to anyone and everyone as long as you have a training goal.
Just like you won’t find any mirrors up at Celtic Academy HQ, you won’t find any fads or fashionable training regimes. What you will find however are structured classes to suit everyone’s ability and needs, you’ll find all the equipment you need and none of the equipment you don’t need and finally, you’ll find a hard working group of coaches whose attention to detail helps build a gym environment that once experienced is hard to leave behind.
