    What I love the most about the NHFA is the after service they provide their graduates by constantly reaching out with job opportunities from fitness clubs. I am so excited to see what my future holds as a PT, so far it has been truly amazing. Thank you NHFA.
    Clare Bray
    NHFA has been more than I could have asked for. They provide a safe learning environment for all students to excel in. They have the top of the top teachers and such beautiful, kind-hearted admin ladies. They will make you feel special and like you're #1. The course doesn't just focus on fitness but also on health & wellbeing, nutrition, mindset, business, marketing and so much more. They helped me realise my talent and give me the tools to succeed!
    Shekinah Thomson
    The experience I had training with them has been vital for taking my next steps into the industry. NHFA is awesome, Dave and all the teachers have been an amazing guide. I can say whole heartedly that I'd recommend them to anyone who is serious about changing career paths and heading into the fitness industry, you'll have the best team of people backing you up. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to do the course with these guys.

    Client testimonials
    My experience has been phenomenal. Jake is by far the best personal trainer I've ever had. I look forward to our sessions each week, and have recommended him to so many friends and family. Jake's approach gets results, and you feel like you're always on track to achieving your goals. Perhaps more importantly, Jake helps you feel motivated and enthusiastic about training, so that it doesn't feel like a chore. He also helps to build up your knowledge so that you feel completely confident training on your own. My partner and I have benefitted so much from Jake's sessions that even after we moved out of the local area, we still travel to each week just for our PT sessions. If you're thinking of booking a session with Jake, just do it - you won't regret it!

    I've been training with Jake for years. I look forward to every training session and have achieved great gains... my girlfriend got inspired by my progress and started training with Jake too
    Anonymous
    There are so many great things I could say. Never pushy when I first started at the gym and Jake was super friendly and knowledgeable. I initially started personal training with the goal to lose weight, which I did, around 10kgs. I was super impressed when Jake adapted to the times and restrictions during covid and brought the gym to you. I look forward to my sessions with Jake each week because he's not only a great personal trainer who can give advice on diet, exercise and recovery but adapts each workout to how your body and mind are coping that day. There are days I walk in and Jake knows straight away we need to back off the intensity or on the flip side he can push me harder. I recommend Jake to anyone who will listen :)

    It's been 5 months of encouragement, goal setting and milestones! TMC has a unique perspective on exercise. I'm now more flexible and mobile than I've ever been. I've lost weight, gained muscle! Classes are all delivered by knowledgeable staff, who are approachable and friendly. If you're done with regular gyms, definitely give TMC a try.

    Client testimonials
    I train at Crossfit Hunter from time to time to supplement my training and give my body a shake up! I compete in powerlifting and I use CrossFit as a way to change up my training, challenge my body and cut weight by getting more intense exercise in to the week. I love the early classes as I can get it done and dusted before work and Saturday classes are an awesome way to start the weekend. As I favour the early bird sessions Dani is my main coach. She is such a fun coach and is always happy in the early hours. The crew are great to train with, everyone encourages each other, there's a good energy in the room.
    Natalie Bartolo
    This place is more than a great workout, it's an all inclusive, super supportive, friendly community who place health and happiness at the heart of it. Top notch coaching performed by professional and friendly people. Bonus points go out for the high cleaning standards, it definitely feels safe entering. My 2020 best find has been this place without a doubt.
    Cheri Lyon
    As someone who has been working out for many years in multiple class and gym environments I can honestly say that CrossFit Hunter is the most welcoming and enjoyable gym I have been to. Not only is everyone extremely kind and welcoming but they really pay attention to detail when it comes to catering to individuals needs and skill levels even within a group class dynamic. Ontop of this the classes are so much fun and always different keeping it interesting.
