Thomas McPhail
Personal Trainer - Group Fitness Trainer - Thump Boxing/Kickboxing Trainer - Spin Instructor - Children Fitness Trainer - Bush Walking Instructor and Guide

Hi my name is Thomas. I have been involved with the fitness industry since 2004 as a Trainer I have had the real honour to train some amazing people. Training for all sorts of personal goals. Some of my fondest memories as a trainer was helping an amazing man lose a whooping 50kgs what was so amazing about this particular experience was what I learnt myself from him as a new trainer in the industry I knew all the tricks and all the right exercises, what I was about to learn on was the true impact that people suffer from from being over weight the journey someone must travel to lose weight. The varied experiences I have had from all types of people have helped me become the trainer I am today and I continue to be shaped with every new person I get to train, I thank everyone that I have had the pleasure in training, thank you for every push up and every bead of sweet you have given me and thank you for every moment of reflection as well. Personally I have been involved in the sport cycling for over 16 years now. Within the sport of cycling I have competed in road cycling, cross country mountain biking, down hill mountain biking and team time trials. In more recent years I have been racing the Brisbane cycling and mountain biking scene in A and B grade. My passion for cycling has now transferred into specialized strength and conditioning programs for all cyclists with an aim to helping improve strength, power and speed. Last year after challenging myself with racing the Coast To Coast adventure race in New Zealand it sparked a real buzz in me for trail (off-road) running, So I now am training hard to participate in some ultra marathons within the next year.

Dan Darcy
Personal Trainer - Group Fitness Trainer - Children Fitness Trainer - Boxing Trainer

Hi my name is Dan. I have been involved in the fitness industry for approximately 10 years. Within that time I have seen many fads, diets and exercise regimes, so many have stayed and some have been, how shall we say it "fads". My philosophy towards becoming a healthier person is that you need to work towards a sustainable exercise routine. Basically you still need to be able to live your life as well as exercise. I have found that this is enhanced by creating goals for my clients to achieve. We all have thought "I wouldn't mind doing this before I turn...." with the experience I have gained via my passion of competing in endurance events I understand the feeling of working towards a goal then finally achieving it. Pure bliss for both you and me so let's get to work.

Naomi Goessling
Personal Trainer - Group Fitness Trainer
Hi my name is Naomi. I have a passion for health, nutrition and helping people improve their lifestyle. Having studied nutritional medicine and working in the health food industry for a number of years I believe that to gain the most out of life we need to exercise and eat a healthy, clean diet (most of the time!). I have been involved in a number of outdoor exercise/boot-camps over the years and love getting outdoors to exercise. My enjoyment of exercise and knowledge of nutrition lead to my career as group exercise trainer and personal trainer, combining the two to help people achieve their health and fitness goals.

Hi! My Name is Amela and i believe Any age or time in your life is a good time to start living healthy and i mean really living and striving for a  longer and healthier lifestyle. Anyone can be fit and all levels are welcome and encouraged. I am currently studiying Exercise Physiology at QUT which provides me with in depth and up to date knowledge.

Creating lifelong healthy habit and a fitness regime will not only make you feel amazing but benefit you  for years to come. Despite our hectic schedules we all can make time for fitness as it really is your  health we are dealing with, I will always find to time to train for and complete regularly in triathlons, as well as feed my netball addiction, playing in several teams and coaching under 12s. You can always catch me riding to the PCYC on my "training" bike with a big smile on my face.  

Train with me and see what we can achieve together, striving for a lifelong healthy habit

 

Rebecca Bozzetto

Group Instructor - Children Fitness Instructor - Gym Instructor - currently completing Cert 4 in Fitness

Hi my name is Rebecca. I’ve been in the fitness industry for 9 years now. It wasn't something that I  consciously decided I wanted to do, more so it complemented the way I live and so it was quite a natural progression. My fitness philosophy is Do What You Love. I enjoy being outdoors, playing any sort of sport, camping, hiking and fishing to name a few.  So while I do really enjoy going to the gym and running on the treadmill etc…..more often than not, most of my physical activity comes from playing sport with my friends, going for runs and roaming around the countryside. I try and make the most out of every day. I strongly believe that maintaining a healthy lifestyle through eating well (most of the time anyway….), exercise and spoiling yourself on occasion is one of keys to achieving happiness. A win for one of my clients, is a win for me and I take great pride and joy in seeing you succeed.
