Our Team

  • Jess Mackie

    OWNER/PERSONAL TRAINER

    I started working in the Fitness Industry in 2009, as a way to support myself through four years at University. The gym became my second home and it didn’t take long before it stopped feeling like work and I experienced just how rewarding this career was.

    Over the years, I have worked and trained in leisure centres, 24/7 chains, women’s only gyms, boutique studios, CrossFit and at the AIS. When I decided to start my own business, I was inspired by everything I love and have learnt from these facilities and determined to create an environment and training experience that encompassed what I believe to be the best elements.

    My mission is to help you find exercise that you enjoy, give you the confidence to set big goals, and the support and encouragement to achieve them.

  • Zane Gosling

    PERSONAL TRAINER

    I've always been a science and tech-head at heart, but as soon as I started exercising regularly and found how much I loved seeing the body adapt and change, I knew I found a new passion.

    I absolutely love combining these, looking up the latest research, or the latest tech in the health and fitness industry and applying to my training.

    Always learning, and always happy to share my knowledge with you, I aim to help you not just reach your goals, but also understand the process too, leading to more sustainable results.

  • Dion Plarinos

    PERSONAL TRAINER

    I’m very passionate about sport and exercise. This passion ignited in high school when I discovered the world of sports science - my two favourite subjects jammed into one.

    I went on to complete a Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science in 2023. This degree gave me an insight and understanding into the human body including nutrition, kinematics, biomechanics, program and delivery of exercises and the importance of evidence-based practices.

    Through this experience I have also gained a love of coaching and mentoring. There is something incredibly rewarding about helping someone achieve their goals and seeing their confidence build.

    Whether it’s leading a fitness class, coaching a sports team, or simply offering advice and support to someone, I am always looking for ways to make a positive impact on the lives of those around me.

  • Rachel Murray

    PERSONAL TRAINER/GROUP INSTRUCTOR

    With a strong background in dance and aerobics, I’ve always loved movement that feels powerful and expressive. I have spent the last 3.5 years coaching as a Pilates Reformer Instructor. I love helping clients build strength, improve technique and feel confident in their bodies.

    I’m currently completing a double Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise & Sports Science and Nutrition Science at Deakin University. My focus is on teaching proper technique and guiding clients to become fitter, healthier and stronger, through sustainable training and mindful movement.

  • Zoe Clarke

    STRENGTH & CONDITIONING COACH

    I’ve always had a strong love and passion for football - anyone who knows me can vouch for that, as can a few broken windows! Playing competitively from a young age taught me the importance of the work that happens off the pitch, from recovery and injury prevention to rehabilitation and return to performance.

    Through my love for sport and pursuit of athletic excellence, I was introduced to the gym and all things strength and conditioning. This is what ultimately steered me towards a career in strength and conditioning and athletic performance. This led me to complete my Bachelor of Exercise and Sport Science, and more recently, my Masters in Strength and Conditioning.

    My approach to training is centred around evidence-based practice and is applicable to anyone looking to improve their athletic development, performance, injury rehabilitation, or general health and wellbeing.

  • Russell Sands

    SPIN INSTRUCTOR

    What’s your secret weapon that keeps your riders coming back?

    Variation, preparation and purpose: Every class is different and unique in its own way. The focus for each class is different and sometimes changes within the class and no one quite knows in advance where its going, so keeps people guessing.

    My classes are prepared in advance and will generally be building upon previous drills to extend and push the fitness of the riders. And most importantly a completely changing and unpredictable playlist for each class that can sometimes go either way. In all, keep mixing everything up. And of course we have a bit of banter along the way.

  • Anne Waters

    SPIN INSTRUCTOR

    How do you motivate yourself when you don’t feel like getting on the bike?

    I don’t think about it, and just do it. I’ve heard fitness experts say, “don’t wait for motivation, just do it”. Try to get into a routine, and be disciplined and consistent. Pick the time of the day that suits you the best. Mornings are great because it is done before other responsibilities and things to do get in the way. Even if I don’t 'feel' like it, I still do it and feel so much better afterwards. And instructing a few classes a week means I have to do it!
