About Rachel
Who is Rachel Holmes?
Rachel Holmes has been delivering education to fitness teachers for over 30 years. She began teaching aerobics in 1987, was sponsored by NIKE from 1991, and travelled the world presenting with the brand.
In 2000, Rachel founded Choreographytogo (C2GO), one of the very first online training platforms for fitness professionals. At a time when downloads were sent via dial-up internet and a CompuServe account, she was already pioneering digital fitness education. That same year, she launched a weekly fitness newsletter with just 50 instructors on her mailing list — it has since grown into one of the UK’s leading fitness education networks.
Rachel has been at the forefront of delivering Active IQ qualifications since the early days, making her one of the very first UK training providers to offer recognised and endorsed courses for fitness professionals. Over the decades, she has trained thousands of instructors in Level 2, Level 3, and specialist CPD programmes, continually updating content to meet the needs of the industry.
Today, Rachel continues to innovate and inspire, leading multiple successful brands including Fitness Pilates™, Menofit™, WalkFit™, Lift Lean™ and BrainFit™, while mentoring fitness professionals across the UK and worldwide.
