Do you think "Physiotherapeut" would do it?
R. Gross
staatlich anerkannter Sportstrainer
Explanation:
I agree with the above person that Physiotherapist is out of the reasons that he/she stated not the appropiate answer.I also wouldn't necessarily go though for his translation of trainer with teacher because the title seems to refer rather to somebody of the likes of a personal trainer or a coach than a teacher. Certified I would definetely translate with "staatlich anerkannt" because in Germany a sportsteacher or trainer have to be examined by the state in order to be licensed.
