Personal Trainers in Ashgrove

“I've been working with kelly for about 2.5 years. She's the most responsive coach I've ever had, both in terms of her communication and her programming. Feedback is frequent and consistent, and tailored to my needs. Her programming is adaptive. I'm constantly amazed at how she can see tiny details when reviewing videos of my lifts, and she's helped me overcome plateaus and hit PRs on all lifts.”

— Marisa Sklar

“Kelly has been my powerlifting coach since 2021 and has played a huge role in my journey — from local competitions all the way to representing Australia on the international stage. Her expertise, support, and attention to detail have been second to none. What sets Kelly apart is the team she's built around her. Working alongside a team of skilled exercise physiologists, it's a complete service that covers training, rehab, and performance — all under one roof.”

— Tom Chaplin

“I joined UBX Ashgrove just over a year ago after much procrastination. I felt I was too unfit, too fat, too injured and would feel intimidated by all the super fit boxers there. I was totally wrong as I was made to feel welcome as soon as I walked in the door not only by the lovely staff but also by the other members. The gym has a real warm community feel and I have never once felt self conscious or uncomfortable. The trainers are fantastic, they keep an eye on you, correcting you if you're not doing something right and pushing you harder if they think you need it and if I wasn't physically able to do some of the exercises they would always give me something else to do to work round it. As someone who doesn't love exercise generally, I have found something I actually enjoy. The 45 minutes fly by and I'm now much fitter and stronger than I was a year ago.”

— Hilary Wilde

“I love the fitness community that Kyra & the team have created at UBX Ashgrove. We come in all shapes, sizes & ages but everyone is encouraged to work at their own level of fitness & reach their goals. The flexibility is perfect to fit around a busy schedule & the general vibe in the club is first class. Most sustained level of fitness I have ever managed to achieved & loving it!”

— Debbie McNamara

“I started training with Aaron as my PT instructor back in early March. The results have been amazing. Muscle gain, weight loss but fitness level increased dramatically. Aaron is dedicated, extremely experienced in PT and body mechanics and knowledgeable about routines designed individual's body types and fitness levels. He tailors each session strategically so my goals are met safely but rapidly. He's personable, funny (but supports the wrong football team) and a pleasure to train with. Same goes for the entire team at Activate. Pat and his are a solid team whose goal is to get us to achieve our goals. Rate them highly!!”

— Rob Hatter

“I have been attending Activate gym for several years and I highly recommend it to people of any age and any fitness level. The wide variety of equipment is well maintained and the space is spotlessly clean. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. They certainly know the meaning of a PERSONAL Trainer with each session tailored to the individuals needs and abilities and are very supportive in each person working towards their goals. For me, my weekly sessions with Pat increase my fitness and strength and I love the social interaction the gym provides. Whether you're looking for a gym or not sure if you want to start, I encourage you to definitely give this place a go!”

— Margaret Squire

“I've been a member for 14 years, and Phoenix continues to impress. It's low-key, often have it to yourself, and the best crew of expert, highly trained, friendly staff. All the gear you need - no aircon which I love! It says so much with many long-term members who value the welcoming, no-nonsense vibe. Plus, it's fortnightly rate is great value. If you're looking for a solid gym, this is the place!”

— Veronica Ashdown

“I have been going to Phoenix for the past two years and have enjoyed every minute of it. The environment is safe, clean and secure and has all the equipment I needed. I would highly recommend if you want to focus on your well-being and avoid overpriced and crowded gyms.”

— Trudie Cross

“The new Evil Barbee PT studio at Ferny Grove epitomises fun, fitness and friendship. Mel has created a beautiful, clean space for small fitness groups for all walks of life. There are a range of classes to suit each and every person who walks into the studio. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and the equipment available to work with is vast. Mel has onboard a group of great PT's, each one special in their own way. They strive to get the best out of each person during the classes pushing us to new levels but still making it fun. Even though we work hard we still find time to have a laugh. I have made some wonderful friends during my time with Evil Barbee PT, my health and fitness have improved greatly and my overall wellness couldn't be better. Highly recommend joining this beautiful community.”

— Debbie Williams

“I wanted motivation and a change in my exercise routine. After a recommendation from someone I found it with Evilbarbee. I now love coming to training. Classes are varied and suit all ages, fitness levels and are fun. EB will cater for any injuries or restrictions that her client's have. I am now fitter than ever. I look forward to my workouts and plan my day around them. There are so many different classes to choose from now. It's fun and a challenge to try something new. The bonus thing I have found is that I have a whole new group of like minded friends. I would highly recommend EB fitness studio to anyone. Just tie on your shoes and give it a go.”

— Amanda Colwell

“I have been training with Carla for over 7 years now, I have achieved great results with fitness, strength and mobility. She is kind, very experienced and really knows what she is doing. I highly recommend her for all levels of training from beginners to experienced athletes.”

— Ruth, 2 Kids

“After a serious health scare, Tash turned her life around. As a night-shift nurse with a Coca-Cola habit, she swapped cardio for strength training, dropped 20kg, and reclaimed her confidence, all while working nights.”

— Tash, Night Shift Nurse

“When I started with New Start Personal Training, everything was taken care of. Every week I had 3 sessions with a personal trainer locked in that suited me and my busy schedule. In the first 2-3 months, I had already seen results. I was healthier (dropped 10 kg), I was happier, and 3 years later, I still can't recommend the New Start team enough!”

— Nathan

“I had lost my mojo and everything was hard. I also had some injuries that were holding me back – a dodgy ankle, and overall stiffness. New Start PT have been remarkable! With such gentle encouragement, they brought out the best in me, and before I knew it I was soaring, and with no injuries.”

At Bodytrack I have found a group of professional exercise physiologists who are not only friendly and very knowledgeable about exercise but experts in improving body function. They have assisted me to lose weight, manage my type 2 diabetes and reduce my blood pressure.”

“We Don't Quit”

— Craig Richey

“When you get the wrong side of 40 years old there's inevitable challenges in life to meet, and that's where I was and was deeply unhappy and very afraid I was going to let myself go. Everyone knows exercise is key but finding the right exercise and enjoying became even more difficult. Tried lots of gyms and trainers with mixed results. Early 2022 I nervously went to a class run by Jordan and straight away knew he was different from other gym instructors. I made contact with him and started doing one on one training. Jordan put me at ease and was very reassuring. We focused on getting me moving functionally then started on increasing my strength gradually I noticed I was feeling better and doing more things I enjoyed. I can't express how much it means to put on a swimsuit and not feel dreadfully self conscious. I am now not only fitter and stronger than ever but I am happier and confident.”

— Angela

“Jordan has truly changed my life. He has unlocked for me a new love of exercising, training and has taught me that no goal is ever too big or small and that anything is possible; all it takes is drive and consistency. Jordan's comforting aura and natural ability to connect with every single client is what makes him and Just Movement stand out amongst any gym that I've stepped foot in. His passion for community and his clear love for exercise and building connections is evident in everything that he does and is the reason why we all show up every day to early morning classes. I couldn't recommend Jordan and Just Movement enough - not only will he provide an insane amount of knowledge and expertise; but you will also get a trainer, a mentor and friend all in one.”

— Alex

“This is the first time I've genuinely enjoyed exercising. I'd tried several large franchise gyms before but always lost motivation. At FITA-U, sessions are engaging and fun, I look forward to training. Coaches are attentive, supportive and ensure correct form. Group environment creates positive, motivating atmosphere. Highly recommend to anyone struggling with consistency.”

— Roberto Riella

“I have been training at FITA U for 4 months now and am really impressed with quality of coaching, small group sizes and personal attention. Positive and inclusive environment with excellent trainers guiding you. Classes change every few weeks so it doesn't get dull. I'm encouraged and motivated to try new exercises and improve overall fitness and strength.”

— Nicola Pierrepont

“My daughter came to acceleration wanting to improve her speed and strength. Her improvements have been amazing. Her coaches are fantastic and she loves going twice a week she is a netballer and I would recommend this to anyone wanting to improve their speed, strength and agility.”

— Jason Green

“The improvements in [my son's] running style were obvious from the first session, and with each week that passed we could see how much the training was helping his build strength, improve his speed and learn how to get the most out of his body. In the first few sessions back at athletics post-Christmas he has smashed multiple PBs, including sprints, high jump and throws. I can't wait to see the impact it has once league starts back up! I would 1000% recommend Acceleration. It's such a positive, supportive and empowering environment, and the training is so impactful.”

— Carly Allott

“I have just clocked over 300 UBX sessions and I think that speaks volumes for UBX Milton as well as the wider UBX model. It's addictive, the trainers are positive and help you improve on general exercise technique just like a PT, as well as boxing technique. Highly recommended.”

“The team at Perform 360 are one of a kind. They go above and beyond to ensure you feel comfortable and are working to your limits, not other peoples. You can be an elite athlete or someone who is starting back after a few years off and you'll be treated the same. The group classes of 6 are a perfect size allowing the trainer to focus on each person as well as create a fun team environment.”

— Kimberley Hamilton

“Before finding Strength Sanctuary, I never enjoyed going to the gym. Now, I couldn't be happier with my experience. From the moment you step in, you're welcomed with warmth and positivity, setting the perfect tone for your workout. The atmosphere, filled with plants, creates a truly inviting vibe (plus, getting a plant upon sign-up is a nice touch). What truly makes Strength Sanctuary stand out is its sense of community. The owners are always approachable, whether you need a chat or expert fitness advice. Their genuine passion for helping others achieve their goals shines through in every interaction. I also love the dog-friendly policy, which adds an extra layer of comfort and homeliness to the gym. Strength Sanctuary isn't just a place to work out; it's where people come together to support and encourage one another on their fitness journeys. If you're seeking a welcoming environment, positive vibes, and a supportive community to kickstart your fitness journey, Strength Sanctuary is the place to be. It's more than just a gym; it's a sanctuary for both body and soul.”

“I Started attending Epic Win PT at the beginning of this year after a long hiatus from all forms of exercise. This was taken into account and an excellent introductory program was written for me and I was coached through it to ensure proper form and technique. The small gym environment is something that I find helps with motivation and it's the only time in my life I have stuck to any kind of regular exercise for more than 3 or 4 months and I have actually seen definite positive results!! Everybody is incredibly friendly and personable and it's a wholesome environment.”

— Shannon
