CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
JENNY
Everyone is very appreciative of the attention you give to every participant. You take the trouble to walk around and correct us. You are very professional and always encourage us to try and never put anyone down. You are welcoming and people are comfortable (especially seniors) attending your class, I always look forward to the next class and the next challenge! Once again thank you Artu for your patience and sincere attention
NETA
Before training with Shan, I was so intimidated by the gym and had no idea where to start, I’d always felt out of place in that environment. Shan changed all that. He created a safe, welcoming space for me to build my confidence. The workouts are personalised, and he’s always patient in explaining things without any presure. Now, I not only feel more capable in the gym, but I also feel proud of how far I’ve come!
CONNOR
There are lots of Personal Trainers out there but only a few good ones, Zach is one of the good ones. His technical knowledge is astounding, every movement is designed to meet a goal, no time is wasted. I look forward to my weekly sessions, he skilfully mixes up the routines to keep me on my toes. Highly recommended to anybody living in Albert Park, South Melbourne, Middle Park or indeed any regular at MSAC.
