Hello friends! Many of you have asked.

Yes we are still here training clients at our studio in Lilydale :-)

We made the decision 10 years ago to only offer 1:1 sessions and as such, the clientele we attracted really valued the privacy that we offer, hence no before and after photos have been shown in a long time.

But this post is to say hello and share a new blog....it's been over 4 years since we've shared a blog as I've been working with my own clients, online and face to face.

Merry Christmas all! We hope this season brings you much joy. We've crossed paths with a few of our past clients this year and all have asked the same question "Are you guys still down at the stadium".

We've been very quiet on social media but the answer is yes, all is going well. Matt's been operating at 90% capacity for the past couple of years, and I've been studying and working on some special creations.

If we can help you in 2025 with any personal training, personalised nutrition sessions, personalised supplement protocols, food sensitivity testing or creating habits and a lifestyle that aligns with your goals, reach out.

Together, we have 30 years experience helping clients get fitter, faster, stronger, healthier and happier ❤️
