Start with a fitness consultation.

It's a conversation, not a trial workout. We'll talk about what you want, take a gentle look at how you move, and tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.

What actually happens

About 30 minutes, start to finish. Nothing here is designed to catch you out.

  1. 01

    We talk first

    Your goals, your training history, anything that's currently sore or limited, and what's stopped you before. This is most of the session.

  2. 02

    A gentle movement check

    Some light, basic movements — squats, lunges, a push and a pull, a little core work — so we can see what your body is ready for today. Nobody expects them to look perfect.

  3. 03

    An honest recommendation

    Which type of training suits you, how often, and what the first few weeks would realistically look like.

There is no obligation to sign up at the end, and nothing is decided on the spot. If we're not the right fit for you, we'll say so and help you work out what is.

What to bring, and what not to worry about

01 Wear whatever you can move in
Comfortable clothes and closed-in shoes. There's no dress code here and nobody is looking at your gym gear.
02 Water and towels are provided
You don't need to bring anything with you. Just turn up.
03 You won't be pushed into a workout
The movement check is deliberately light. If something doesn't feel right, we stop — that's useful information, not a failure.
04 Most of our members are 35+
If you're worried about being the least fit person in the room, you almost certainly won't be. Everyone here started somewhere.

Great place to have a tailor made programs to achieve your fitness goal(s). I was struggling with regaining strength and flexibility post a motorcycle accident which had me bedridden for 3 months, Duran helped me make good progress in 2-3months. Thanks to their mindful and sustainable approach, fitness has become a habit for me. I am the fittest I have ever been since i got the dad bod 10yrs ago and doing it all while sharing a good laugh and banter. :-D Excited to achieve more in 2025 with the Marion PT crew.

I really enjoy my training with Marion PT. Duran my PT has helped me get back into training while working with my injuries and making me stronger every day! The atmosphere and the friendly faces are very welcoming. I’m so glad my friend recommended them to me.

Best gym I've ever been to! Duran and Henk clearly love what they do, care for their clients and foster an inclusive, safe environment. I've had lots of PTs over the years and these guys are seriously up there with best. Safety is always front of mind which is ideal for older or injured clients. They're always bright and happy, and make exercising fun! As long as i live in Adelaide, I'll be attending Marion PT!

Before you book

What does it cost?
The consultation is $20, reduced from $50.
How long does it take?
Around 30 minutes. Most of that is talking rather than moving.
Do I need to be fit already?
No. Most people book precisely because they aren't where they'd like to be.
I've got an old injury — is that a problem?
It's one of the main reasons to come in. We'll work around it, and if something needs medical attention first we'll tell you straight.
Will I be signed up to a contract?
Not on the day. You'll get a recommendation and time to think about it.
Where do I go?
Shop 1/211 Diagonal Road, Warradale. There's parking on site.
What if I decide it's not for me?
That's a perfectly good outcome. We'd rather help you find the right thing than sell you the wrong one.
