Highly recommended and already looking to extend to current block sessions booked.

Thanks so much Solomon!
Fantastic experience: The guys at Soma have been really helpful and accommodating. I’ve had a bit of an injury, which they have patiently worked around, encouraged me to maintain my nutrition plan even though the exercise element has been compromised and have been in touch constantly. The app is really helping me stick to the discipline! Highly recommended!!!
Thanks so much Graeme! Looking forward to seeing you back on the gym floor

Thanks so much Kyle !
Fantastic experience: If you’re considering whether or not to go for PT training then go for it!! Craig at Soma has been brilliant. A dedicated workout plan created based on my personal goals. 2 months in and already feeling stronger. Great variety in the workouts and clear instructions, on top of a plan to do from home too. Highly recommended.
Thanks so much Rick, we are really pleased to hear that your happy with your experience at Soma.
Fantastic experience: I decided to move from the UK to Sydney 2 months ago and so wanted to get into shape pretty swiftly. I chose to go with Stelios from Soma Fitness. I would 10000% recommend Stelios to anyone who wants a personal trainer. He is extremely knowledgeable and tailored our workout and my food plan to work along my lifestyle whilst driving the weight goals we set out together. We communicated regularly and he always went above and beyond to provide helpful tips to keep me on track. Above all Stelios is a very lovely person and was a delight to work with and I would reccomend him to anyone. Thanks Stelios for all your help
Thanks so much for your kind words Katie, all the best of luck to you and Luke on your new adventure
Fantastic experience: This isn't a normal gym! If you want 1'2'1 coaching with people that really care, listen, watch how you move and push you to reach your goals - then this is your ideal space to do that.
Thanks so much for your kind words Lissa
Fantastic experience: Fantastic trainer (Sam) who has made a huge difference for me. Very different from other ‘general’ fitness PTs; with loads of knowledge about biomechanics, physiology etc Cannot recommend enough
Thanks so much Andrew, we are really happy that you value the small details in our approach.
Fantastic experience: Helped me with my form with some compound barbell lifts and gave me exercise ideas to work certain muscles
It was a pleasure to have you in and help you improve your execution of your squat, bench and deadlift! Great to work with and your a natural keep up the good work
Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Sam for 5 or 6 months now and can’t speak highly enough of him and of the SOMA experience. He makes sure every rep at every session counts and my programme is constantly updated to reflect my progress, as are my nutritional targets. Where Sam also adds value is in his breadth of knowledge and experience covering nutrition, training, biomechanics, rehabilitation of injuries etc. Prior injuries that have previously been triggered by training have been absent due to the knowledgeable approach, focus on good form and construction of a programme that addresses root cause. Every session is tough but fun. As well as being thoroughly professional, Sam is a great positive person to work with.
Thank you John!
Fantastic experience: I have been training at Soma fitness for approximately 4 months and am seeing great results. The training program is individually tailored and adapted regularly. It is a very professional service which I would highly recommend.
Thanks so much Alan, it’s an honour to have you working with us!
Fantastic experience: I have now used Soma twice over the last 10 years. The first time, Stelios did an amazing job in getting me fitter and stronger than ever before - and did it in a way that was fun and challenging. This time I have Johnny. He is also an excellent fit. The gym has been improved in every way since my last visits. Johnny is helping me get over a long-term injury and I now feel as fit and strong as ever and look forward to continuing my fitness journey with Soma.
Thanks so much for your kind words and the long term support.
Fantastic experience: Soma fitness is one of best fitness Gyms I have been fortunate enough to be a part of. The equipment is versatile and very carefully selected. The environment is extremely comfortable, safe and inspiring. My two teenage children and I have been training with Stelios for a year now and we love it. I came with a few injuries and struggled to go beyond a certain level of training. But with the right guidance I feel the strongest I have ever felt. My children have been safely guided by Stelios towards a healthy lifestyle. Thanks to him they love working out and look forward to their sessions at Soma every week without ever missing. They have the confidence to join a gym on their own and workout alongside their PT. We love soma fitness and will definitely be continuing our journey with them for a very long time. Thank you Bano Raazee
Thanks so much for your kind words Bano, it’s is a pleasure to work with you all!
Fantastic experience: The professionalism and service experienced at Soma Fitness are top-notch. There is not a one size fits all program, everything is personalised and tailored to your needs and desires. The 3 PTs: Stelios, Sam, and Jonny are friendly and always made me feel welcome. Sam (my trainer) is an excellent trainer whom I have gotten very good results after only a couple months of training! He is very knowledgeable and empathetic and does his best to get the most out of me each session. I always leave our sessions feeling well even if I have had a difficult day before. I highly recommended Soma fitness for personal training.
Thanks so much for your kind words Laura.
Fantastic experience: I came to soma fitness with a really bad mechanical problem with my spine, an injury I have had for around 5 years since I was 15 and during that time lost a lot of stability in my back and struggled with regular day to day activities making exercises basically impossible. I contacted Soma to seek some professional advice as to how I could begin to get fit whilst being cautious and careful of my injury. I booked a block of 10 sessions with Sam. Not only was Sam instantly helpful in assessing my issue and finding exercises that were best for me but also helped my motivation massively. He’s very knowledgeable in back/spine related problems and general gym and fitness & lifestyle advice. Sam’s a really easy person to get along with and I really enjoyed the sessions. He was always available to contact outside of sessions and provide me with extra material to help me. I’ve completed my block of 10 sessions and since then have been in the gym daily for several weeks. I’ve felt the fittest I have since my back issue occurred and I can carry out movements I didn't think I could possibly do before training with Sam. I really feel like I'm back on the road to recovery now and I don't think this would have been possible if I hadn't contacted Soma and started training with them. Couldn't recommend Soma fitness enough to other people trying to get started in fitness.
Thanks so much for your kind words George ! Thanks so much for trusting us to work with you.
Fantastic experience: Helped me with my form with some compound barbell lifts and gave me exercise ideas to work certain muscles
It was a pleasure to have you in and help you improve your execution of your squat, bench and deadlift! Great to work with and your a natural keep up the good work
Fantastic experience: I've been working with Martin and Stel at Soma for years. It's made a big difference to my life. Would recommend 100%
Thanks so much to staying committed to keeping your training as part of your lifestyle. It’s a pleasure to have you working with us but I’m not sure about your football team
Fantastic experience: Excellent training from caring, committed and customer focused professionals.
Thanks so much for your kind words Sarah.
Fantastic experience: Stel is a great trainer, very educated in all aspects of personal training, physiology, anatomy and nutrition. He stays learning and loves what he does. Couldn’t recommend more.
Thank you Nick.
Fantastic experience: Been training at Soma the last 15 years. Stelios has been a great coach in many ways. Helped with strength, cardio, boxing and nutrition and always great company, been a pleasure being at Soma Been mainly focused on boxing while with Stelios and learnt so many valuable lessons from hours of pad and bag work which helped so much over many events. Soma is where it all started.. Nutrition and diet started at soma has been very rewarding and healing. Always felt comfortable and enjoyed training with Stelios at Soma
Thanks so much Nicky you are a warrior !!!
Fantastic experience: As a father son duo we have really enjoyed using Stelios over the past 4 years! We have both benefited from his very personal approach to our training programmes (no mean feat considering a 30 year age gap!) and he has always created a fun and comfortable environment for us to work out in. Stelios is a great guy and it wouldn’t be over the top to say that he has really become a “friend of the family”… we can’t speak highly enough of his approach to resistance training which has improved both our physical health and mental well-being. We look forward to many more sessions of training and becoming faster, better, stronger in the process
Thanks so much for the kind words Harley, it’s been a pleasure to work with you both, it’s also entertaining to see the camaraderie!
Fantastic experience: I have trained with Soma for the last 7 years, both Stelios and Martin are fantastic PTs. Always creating a personalised training programme designed specifically for me to target my key areas whilst also taking into account my weaker areas. I would definitely recommend Soma fitness to any friend who is looking for a tailor-made fitness programme and a professional, friendly service.
Thanks so much Emma .
Fantastic experience: Known Stelios for a long time and always had impeccable service. Listens to what your body needs and accommodates the training so that your getting the most out of a session. Come out of every session with that post workout high. Great guy and trainer who explains what the workout does, giving you the push and motivation. Recommend to anyone from beginner to experienced, you get more than just great training when signing up to the programme.
Thanks so much for your kind words and your commitment to your training Clarke.
Fantastic experience: I have been training at Soma for over 10 years (with a few breaks), firstly with Stelios and currently with Martin. The great thing about them is that they listen to you to establish your goals and then set realistic targets to help you achieve them. By working closely with one trainer they get to know your body and can tailor the training to help you to recover from any injuries, I have had knee problems for a few years but the area specific workout routines have helped to alleviate a lot of the issues I have had. I can thoroughly recommend Soma to anyone who is looking to lose weight, improve fitness or looking at post injury rehab.
Thank you Nick for your continued commitment to keeping yourself fit and healthy, your a nice bloke for a Blue .
Fantastic experience: I've been working with Stellios at Soma Fitness for over a year now and I couldn't recommend the service anymore. I've seen great results and will continue to train there! Friendly, knowledgeable, well organised and a great place to train!
Thank you for your commitment and dedication Oliver
Fantastic experience: I've enjoyed training with Tim as it's a comfortable environment at Soma. It's always hard but he gets the best out of me. Plus the diet tips have made a big difference to my lifestyle.
Fantastic experience: I've been training with Tim and I could not be any happier with the progress I have made. I have lost weight with his nutrition plan and gained muscle. Would highly recommend!!
Fantastic experience: I'm a professional rugby player that has been working with Tim during my off-season. He's a very motivated coach and works hard to facilitate my needs. Tim has a wide knowledge of strength and conditioning and always makes my sessions challenging and varied. I would definitely recommend Tim to any young aspiring athletes.
We love having you in the gym James, good luck with the new season.
Fantastic experience: Great PT, achieved my results and more!
Fantastic experience: An amazingly positive atmosphere !
We love having you in the gym every week John.
Fantastic experience: I've been going to Soma regularly for about a year now. Stelio & his whole team have been so helpful & motivational. The change to my overall fitness has been truly amazing. Thank you guys
Fantastic experience: The guys there are beyond friendly and looking after me to achieve my personal goals and well being. Always a good workout plan and results can always bee seen. I will with no doubt at all, recommend every single PT in this place. Thank you for everything
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! I've been training with Stelios and the other trainers for over 5 years - says it all really. #teamsoma
Fantastic experience: I attended group sessions at soma fitness and they were so much fun doing it with friends we would all encourage each other so we’d work harder But having fun at the same time. Great atmosphere. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Been training here for some years and always get good results for whatever my specific target is. Highly recommend this gym and all the PTs who work there are great trainers
Fantastic experience: Lots of excellent support and positive vibes from the team, recommend Soma to anyone, no matter how beginner or advanced.
Fantastic experience: Soma fitness is amazing great workout friendly staff and they got superb knowledge of health and fitness
Fantastic experience: I love soma fitness, great place for a good work out
Fantastic experience: Excellent client care and their knowledge of the body, exercise and nutrition is second to none.
Fantastic experience: Great gym and fantastic trainers. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Great place for training, super friendly and encouraging staff
Fantastic experience: The best people. Great 1-1 training.
Fantastic experience: Soma is a brilliant place to workout and reach your weight loss goals. I attended group sessions which were so much fun. Stelio and his team are very encouraging and knowledgable and made working out fun! I’d highly recommend Soma fitness for a great way to loose weight.
Fantastic experience: Trained with Stelios for 1 year and had amazing results. More than just the exercises, Stelios gave comprehensive nutritional and detoxing advice to get the absolute most out of every session. He gives a lifestyle that lasts.
We are really happy that we have been able to make an impact on your lifestyle Cam
Fantastic experience: I have enjoyed training at Soma since 2009. I've trained with Stellios, Martin and Jonny and enjoy their different methods. All are very friendly and focused on helping me achieve my goals. I wouldn't train anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Stelios is always positive and helpful. He listens and observes to decide what you personally need and then delivers a bespoke plan. Soma has a friendly atmosphere and is always welcoming.
Fantastic experience: I have been coming to Soma twice a week for just under two years as I thought weights would be good for my well being and health. I was already doing quite a lot of cardio so the two together have worked very well. Stelios is very knowledgeable about nutrition and all aspects of training which instills a lot of confidence. Soma is a very well equipped gym with a welcoming, non-intimidating environment, which can sometimes be apparent in larger gym complexes. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Without a shadow of doubt, Stelios is THE best fitness instructor I have had the pleasure of working with. Having trained with various other PT's in the past, straight away I could tell that this was a man who really knew what he was doing. His level of expertise is second to none. The whole team at Soma, including Madalina who is an expert in her own field, have all been fantastic. Couldn't recommend them enough.
Fantastic experience: Soma has proved to be the best place for weight training. The teachers are really encouraging and very well qualified with excellent training. My husband has Parkinson’s and the patience shown to him has been incredible showing an improvement all round. Soma is recommended for both male and female of all ages.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Stelios for 18 months. As an over 50 I've seen the weight come off and my strength improve significantly. Stelios really understands physiology and knows how to target the right muscles to get the right results. He is unfailingly supportive and encouraging and pushes you to the max. An excellent PT.
Fantastic experience: Stelios is a champ. Got excellent results coming here. I lost 9kg (1.2 st) over the first 3 months and a further 9kg over the 3 months that followed that. After training with Stelios for a bit over a year I am the fittest I have ever been, have achieved reasonably good improvement in strength and physique and feel great!
Fantastic experience: I was trained by these guys in 2012. I lost 12kg in weight, my whiplash pain disappeared and I felt fitter than I have ever felt before or since. I went to see Soma as I have had severe medical issues in the past and wanted to be sure that I'd be working with health experts. I was not disappointed in any way. Recently I put on a lot of weight due to poor lifestyle and got onto a diet through a clinic so I weigh less than ever as an adult, but I don't feel any fitter so I'm going back to Soma. Minas and Stelios have a really long view of health and fitness as a change to lifestyle and not a quick fix. The gym is private and welcoming, and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to go from zero to fit, whether for health reasons or just for fun. Pop by just to see the fighters that they have trained!
Fantastic experience: What Gr8 gym. Initially went to discuss a nutrition plan with stelios, as this is one of his many great services. i have never looked back since. Stelios has all the knowledge needed for every aspect to do with the gym and healthy lifestyle. he has cured a few issues i had physically. I have tried many different gyms, gym instructors and i can easily say that i wouldn't go anywhere else again. forget the total fitness's and pure gyms or any other commercial gym, you need to visit stelios and his team. They cater for all, men ,women and young from all ages and sizes. I have been going now for almost 2 years and haven't looked back since. I did try the other personal trainers in the area and did not find them to be as knowledgeable. just thought they were after my money. Since going to soma fitness i have got to know the all the team and made new companions alike.
