Small Group Personal Training

Elite grouptraining.

Forty-five minutes, coached throughout, and a different workout every single time — even if you come at the same hour every week. It is the closest thing we have to a secret.

The problem

Classes where nobody is actually coaching you

Most group fitness is a room of thirty people following an instructor at the front who cannot see, let alone correct, what any individual is doing. You get sweaty. You rarely get stronger.

The other failure mode is the opposite: the same circuit, every week, forever. Your body adapts within a month and then quietly stops changing, which is why so many people plateau in classes and never work out why.

And if you are a beginner, both versions are intimidating. Nobody explains anything, everyone else seems to know the routine, and you spend the hour half a beat behind.

How we do it

Small numbers, real coaching, and a new session every time

Elite Group sessions run circuit style through a series of stations: steps, battle ropes, light weights, resistance bands, sandbags, kettlebells, slam balls, bodyweight work, boxing and our specialised Bulgarian bag moves.

The format is HIIRT — high intensity interval resistance training — which is built to burn body fat and build lean muscle tone in the same session. It is why people see shape change within weeks rather than months.

Because the group is small, your coach can still correct your technique, scale a movement up for someone strong and down for someone starting out, and keep an eye on anyone working around an injury. Everyone trains in the same room at their own level.

What you get

Why small groups work

The coaching of one-to-one, the energy of a class, and a cost that sits comfortably between the two.

Never the same workout

Come at the same time every week for a year and you will not repeat a session. Your body never gets to settle.

Coached, not just led

Small numbers mean your form gets corrected and your load gets set. You are not following along from the back row.

Scaled to you

Complete beginners train alongside people who have been with us for years. Every station scales in both directions.

Fat loss and tone together

The HIIRT format works on body composition, which is why shape changes faster than the scales alone would suggest.

More affordable

The most cost-effective way to be properly coached. Plenty of members combine it with one one-to-one session a week.

The people

This is where the community actually happens. A lot of members arrive for the training and stay for the group chat.

In their words

What members say

“It took a lot for me to book my first class, due to my anxiety, and I am so glad I did. From day one I have felt very welcome. Julia definitely challenges me and makes me feel confident and happy in what I am doing. Going here has helped so much with my mental health.”
