Are you ready to make the Move?


 

 

Move The Body

Our MVMT options at The MVMT Studio are 4:1 Small Group Training and Personal Training sessions.


In our 4:1 Small Group Training sessions you get the consistency of training at the same time each week, with the same group of people, in four week blocks. You'll be able to reach your goals more quickly compared to large classes, as we create and track your individual goals, allowing us to design a detailed and individualised program specifically for you.


For both training styles we educate you about training your body to perform at its best, so you feel energised, strong and lengthened after each session.

Move The Mind

Moving your body and eating well only makes up part of what you need to feel amazing. Defining why you want to change is key. Once we determine your fitness and health goals, we will then go over why you want to achieve them.

Before we start you'll receive our Goal Setting booklet that helps us create the discussion about what you want out of the sessions and how we can create the best training regime for you according to your goals.

Make A Movement Within Yourself

Now is the time to get moving! Get ready to hit the reset button, or take your fitness and health to the next level. It’s time to take the next step and make the commitment to yourself that you are focussing on you and your wellbeing.

We will take you through our fitness analysis to provide you with a personalised training plan.

Whether its losing weight, gaining muscle or toning up, we'll make sure you're functioning at your optimal level and that you get the most out of your training sessions.

Your trainers and community are ready to welcome you at The MVMT Studio.
