Are you asking if there is a market for professional trainers or if you could legally make the move? There is an affluent niche large enough to support another personal trainer - "gym" is a large aspect in many peoples' lives. However, immigration into South Africa is very difficult and you would need to have significant capital to bring to the country in order to qualify. It is not impossible - my aunt and uncle managed it a few years back - but you do need several hundred thousand dollars; enough to convince the authorities that you will not be a burden on the state when you arrive.
