Where Locals Work Out: Best [4] Gyms and Fitness Centers in Laverton North, VIC

Rico Ryan (rryanrico) Ellis Gym Laverton is the best gym Ive ever been to. Everytime I come in Im welcomed by staff who remember my name and always have a smile on their face. You can tell this is not just a business but its a true community. Every member has different goals and yet we all push and encourage each other to improve and get fitter. I love being able to fist bump strangers who eventually become friends after getting to know one another from chats after workout sessions. Coming or joining alone is also okay as everyone is happy to partner with you when its time to do pad work. I dont see anyone with egos here unlike previous gyms Ive been to and even though youre new, there are no cliques. Ive only felt welcomed and supported by every single member, coach and staff at the gym. - Ryan R

Sara W Team Ellis is the best place ever!!! I have been here for nearly 5 months and I love it so much. Everyone here is so friendly, welcoming and very funny. There is so much positivity throughout this gym, and I am so grateful for Team Ellis because boxing has become my favourite sport, with the amazing coaches teaching me so much every lesson. Also, I got the Team Ellis jumper for my birthday and it is so cool.

Orlando Hart Lionheart Krav Maga is a great place for kids and adults to learn self defence, stay fit and grow in confidence. John (JT) is an excellent instructor and really knows how to engage the students. He knows how to make it fun, and take it serious when he has to. My daughter has been attending for nearly 3 years and looks forward to every class.

Daniyal Ali I have recently started training at Lionheart Krav Maga and it has been a great experience so far. John is a terrific instructor and the classes are held in a very welcoming and friendly environment. The structure of the classes allow you to learn valuable self defence skills while getting fitter and having a bit of fun at the same time. Highly recommended for anyone looking to learn a practical martial arts for self defence!

Baraki Rendering Pty Ltd Been going here for over 2 years now. Hands down the best jiu jutsu school in Melbourne. Chris has attention to detail, caters for shift workers, is very affordable and has the most dominant and effective jiu jutsu methods and principles in Melbourne. His jiu jutsu is all you need for self defence and MMA. I recommend everyone here.

Riley Caldwell If you want to learn how to effectively defend yourself, this is the place for you. The alternative at other schools is just learning Brazilian jiu jitsu moves and thinking you can defend yourself because you feel superior in some way. Chris is very knowledgeable, dedicated to the art of jiu jitsu and is an overall valuable man to be around. I recommend!
