Merewether Fitness Studio

I have been training with Stephen for 13 years and thoroughly enjoy the ever changing sessions and also the lovely social interaction with other clients. Stephen is a professional caring trainer personalising the programme to accommodate any health issues/injuries.I have attended many gyms over the past 40 years and Merewether Fitness Studio is certainly a hidden gem.

An inclusive environment where individual client needs are a key focus in small group sessions. Stephen is a true professional who encourages clients to achieve their personal goals in an enjoyable and functionable environment. The longevity of his clients attendance is a testament to the quality experience!

When you attend Merewether fitness studio you feel more than just another customer. You feel like you're part of something good, apart of a family of likeminded people all setting realistic goals and having the support of the owner/ personal trainer Stephen Smith.I've met all kinds of people at this gym from young pro athletes to people recovering from surgery or older guys just wanting to stay healthy and shed a few pounds.The environment is welcoming and I was able to not just reach my goals but, because I like the atmosphere here so much, I've stuck around and have surpassed my original goal and continue to set new ones.If you're looking for a nice local gym with kind owners and members who take their workout seriously but have a lot of fun while doing it, this is the gym for you.Do what I did, just show up. Stephen will take care of you.

Started going to MFS in the past six months and wish I'd done it sooner! Steve is inclusive, conscious of any pre-exiting limitations and mixes it up so that no two sessions are alike. The groups are small and friendly and I felt welcome immediately. My twice-weekly classes have helped me build a base level of fitness while enjoying the well-equipped gym and professional guidance. Love this gym!

Steve has made joining a gym in later life enjoyable and safe. The sessions are fun and I have really noticed the benefits of strength and stamina. Highly recommended.

I have trained at Merewether Fitness Studio for almost 10 years. At 61 I feel stronger and have more energy than I did in my forties! I have made lasting friendships with like minded people who see fitness as a way of life not a chore. If you don’t know where to start, give Stephen a call. His focus on you as an individual and your ability and needs is the key to reaching your goals.

I am a former client, only because I have moved interstate, and trained with Steve for around 8 years.He trains each individual to their ability, so you can reach your goals of endurance and strength. I was at my fittest and strongest when training with Steve.He rehabilitated me back to my potential following surgery after rupturing my Achilles’ tendon.Hi attention to safe technique, body mechanics, along with a holistic approach to overall health, stressing the importance of the benefits to a positive mindset, is so much more than you can get from traditional gyms.Weight is lost, muscles defined and lifelong friends are made.Can’t recommend enough.

I can’t rate Merewether Fitness Studio high enough! It’s a true ‘gem’ that offers personalised fitness programs to suit your own goals. Steve is knowledgeable, friendly, professional and so encouraging.I always leave my sessions feeling a little stronger and learning something new. I highly recommend it!!!

HiAs a newbie to Newcastle in 2020, joining this gym was a great move. Steve is happy to adjust all exercises for injury, nothing is ever a problem. Small classes, spotless gym and equipment as well as great people.I highly recommend Merewether fitness

We've been coming to this gym for the last four months or so - and wish we'd found it years before.Professionally managed and well run in every aspect.No formula and no repetitive instruction. The classes are small and each and every class offers a different challenge.
