Had several sessions with Gio after a long lay off from exercise. I found his knowledge and methods really effective and he was very adaptable to cater my PT around my limitations following back surgery.

Gio has been absolutely amazing, highly recommend! I had no motivation to get back into fitness but every one of my sessions felt structured to work best. We challenged and improved each week and I always left feeling much better than the journey there. If you're looking to get back into the gym, definitely book Gio!!

Gio is an excellent personal trainer and very patient. I have various ailments that prevent me from doing some exercises, and he always tailors the program to find other exercises that I can do to get the most out of the sessions. He's also really friendly and plays the music we like whilst training. It's the longest I've ever stuck to an exercise plan in my life as I really enjoy the sessions.

I have now been attending classes with Gio for 9 months. His patience with the 50's age group is amazing whilst subtly increasing our exercises to improve our strength and areas we want to focus on. I can honestly say I feel healthier as well as stronger and would recommend his services to anyone looking to improve fitness.

Training at this private gym has been a complete game-changer. The 1-2-1 personal training experience is on a totally different level - focused, motivating, and genuinely tailored to my goals. The space itself feels exclusive and welcoming, with none of the crowds or distractions you get in commercial gyms. I actually look forward to every session now, which says it all.

My son Tapi has really enjoyed his sessions — the coaching has been structured, motivating, and highly professional. I've seen clear improvements not just in his technique but also in his confidence and discipline on court. The environment is supportive yet challenging, and communication has always been excellent. Highly recommend.
