Woodland Park outdoor gym - Essendon (VIC)

Lyndall Biggar An effective guided meditation and yoga program in a relaxing safe space which encouraged ‘being’ over the ‘doing’ of daily life, thus generally re-energising ourselves within our group. Many thanks to Jen for providing this program which included a delicious home-cooked meal, herbal tea & fruit, complemented by a rich cacao drink & group chat plus ritual reflection by the open fire. I would highly recommend this experiential session to anyone seeking ‘time out’ from their hectic and busy schedule. Lyndall

Lisa B I’ve been training with Mark and Lee-Ann Derrick since 2022. These two are such an impressive coaching team operating out of arguably Australia’s pre-eminent training facility. As a masters lifter that’s gone through two major surgeries I absolutely trust Mark to program safely for me to achieve my competitive goals. If I set a big goal, Mark is already ahead of me with data, ideas and programming strategies to get me there. I love training with MD strength and I cannot recommend this team more highly.

Aroha Harawira I joined 5ew just over a year ago and it’s the best decision I’ve made. I was struggling with a hip injury and despite previously being pretty motivated to train prior to the injury, I was scared to go back to my old way of training only to have to spend another year recovery. The team at 5EW developed me a personal plan to help me regain my strength whilst working around my injury. The addition of yoga classes and saunas has helped me to regain my health. And even during lockdown my PT kept me on track with online PT sessions. A really great team, amazing facilities and I love that their focus is about health, not solely aesthetics.

Michelle Bunch Como physie is a wonderful and supportive club. Lovely teachers, very friendly and welcoming environment for all ages. Our granddaughter has been doing physie here for a few years and is always excited to go to her class. Our daughter loves the ladies class too.
