1R

Positive experience: I go here maybe 2-3 times a month (I pay per class; approx $35 a class). I enjoy incorporating some HIT classes into my workout routine. But I do find to be skinny, you simply need to eat less and do more steps, so the HIT classes don’t necessarily lose weight. But it makes you feel stronger hence the 2-3 sessions a month. I’ve been going on and off for about 2 years now. I would say overall I’d come back at least once a month as I do find the classes worth going occasionally.

Fantastic experience: Came here for their boxing classes and I absolutely loved it! The vibe and the music was so good… I’m so sad they don’t do the boxing classes anymore

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at 1R since it first opened in South Yarra in 2021 & I can honestly say this would have to be one of the best gyms in Melbourne! It has an extremely modern fit out, an exciting lighting & speaker system through the entire building & Air Conditioning in every room to help you cool down after a decent work out. The three classes, Reps, Reshape & Reformer Pilates are all designed to be the perfect 45 minute work out with some of the best trainers in the health & fitness industry. The classes are so much fun, you’ll enjoy the work out so much you’ll forget your exercising. The lighting is super comfortable & cool & the music is like being on a dance floor at a nightclub. I’ve recently lost 14 kilos & I haven’t even focused on weight loss, I’ve simply just been enjoying being healthy & enjoying my work outs at 1R as the trainers are so positive & motivating it’s made me want to visit the gym 4-6 times a week. I definitely recommend booking into one of Maree, Siobhan, Hollie, Scarlett, Mia or Adriana’s classes. Hollie & Scarlett’s positive warm downs at the end of the class are so uplifting, you’ll definitely leave the class feeling great mentally & physically & want to book into another class asap… But I honestly can’t thank Mia in particular enough, for all her strength & guidance over the past 8 months, Mia is one of the strongest, kindest & encouraging trainers I’ve ever met. She’s extremely professional, has a lot of knowledge regarding strength & mobility training, she’s safely encouraged & guided me to achieve new fitness goals - she’s truly an inspiration. Mia is a massive credit to 1R & I cannot imagine the gym without her. I’m extremely grateful for her helping me to further my physical & mental strength. The 1R male & female change rooms are spacious, equipped with plenty of easy to use lockers that are free, showers with complimentary shampoo, conditioner & body wash, as well as deodorant & Dyson hair dryers & straighteners for everyone to use, they even have an iron & ironing board which is great for those early morning work outs before going to work. The gym provides water bottles & towels on arrival. The staff can even make you a healthy & fresh juice or smoothie if you pre order upstairs at reception. The reception staff are always super friendly & happy to help with any general enquiries. The entire gym is extremely clean, you can even see regular cleaners going in to clean & sanitise the rooms after every sessions has finished. The check in process is quick & easy & the 1R app is great for booking classes. You can even take advantage of the ‘Prosecco Fridays’ & have a drink & socialise with other gym goers & trainers on Friday evenings. Definitely visit the 1R website, download the app or call or visit 1R in South Yarra or Richmond & take advantage of the “first timer” where you can try all three classes, Reps, Reshape & Reformer for just $35 dollars, you will not regret it.

Fantastic experience: 1R is a great work out and great vibes. I’ve taken a few classes with Sesia. She has great playlists and energy. The Friday post class bubbles is a treat too

Fantastic experience: I did the three class trial while visiting Melbourne for a week - I am usually go to Barry’s back home. 1R Workouts are great, instructors are good, music is banging if you like electronic beats, coffee was good, facilities and shower are clean and use the really good soap (this matters a lot). The guy working the front desk and who made my coffee was a super good guy & made a solid flat white - If I lived in this area I’d definitely consider this spot for a membership - workouts are similar to Barry’s but music isn’t as loud (which I appreciate)

Fantastic experience: 1R is my favourite place for pilates EVER!

Negative experience: Bad customer service, bad location that they blame us for not finding a parking spot then they won’t let you in but will still charge all your credits used. Don’t recommend and will never come here again.

Fantastic experience: Great gym if you like diverse classes under the one membership. Good if you like high energy and to smash out your exercise in 45 minutes. Great trainers !

Fantastic experience: Had a great time at 1R South Yarra doing the Reshape class run by Seisia. Good mix of fast cardio and weights/body movements. The lighting and music were definitely motivating along with Seisia's encouragement and enthusiasm.

Fantastic experience: Smoothies at this place come on top! Recommend

Positive experience: A really cool gym with 3 great classes - my favourite is the reshape and rebuild. Heads up this gym is not like a normal one. The classes are dark and have club style lights that fit the music, it’s surprisingly motivating.They also offer great protein shakes on-site. This place is very pricey though so recommend trying their first timer promo!

Fantastic experience: Fabulous classes, great facilities, excellent trainer! Would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Next level workout experience - especially in Reshape room. Best sound you'll ever hear in a workout class. Coaches are all top quality and Technogym Skillruns really create the difference for the running workouts.

Fantastic experience: Love 1R Rumble! The trainers, Karuna and Scarlett are really good and motivational. Most classes are different each week and we're able to improve our boxing skills each week

Negative experience: I think this gym is very over-hyped and pretentious.

Positive experience: Great and clean shower room, equipments and atmosphere

Fantastic experience: King of the gym! Love coming for boxing

Fantastic experience: My best gym experience! Coaches are great, the workouts are never the same leaving you entertained and energized!

Fantastic experience: Recently did a class at this facility through class pass, the class was motivating and the whole gym creates an amazing atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend trying them out more!

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and great instructors

Fantastic experience: Great energy, classes and instructors. One of the rare places outside of home I actually enjoy taking a shower at too!

Fantastic experience: A friend and I went for the first time tonight. A rumble class. Absolutely incredible. Our trainer was absolutely amazing. The best fitness class I’ve ever been to. Thank you

Negative experience: Arrived 10 mins earlier as a first time guest. There was no greetings and the receptionist who looked like she was stuck in her head/daydreaming. walked up to her and politely suggested it was my first time there and she reluctantly and really quickly ran through a few instructions without mentioning where to store our belongings. walked downstairs only to realise the lockers were upstairs and had to come back up. Then I was rushed aggressively by the receptionist to hurry up when she failed to do her job to inform me about where to leave my belongings in the first place. Don't appreciate being spoken to in such a manner throughout the entire process.

Fantastic experience: Good intense workout class with good music on. Well equipped for after workout shower too. However all this come with price tag, not cheap class but worth doing every now and then.

Fantastic experience: Love the gym, super clean and friendly staff. The classes are also a perfect challenge - the only downside is the lack of parking available around the area.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and great trainers! Love all the classes and you leave classes always feeling good.

Fantastic experience: Maree is the best trainer!!! She is both welcoming and understanding of personal circumstances (injuries), which has made trying something new far less nerve racking. It’s a great gym - loving the RESHAPE classes!

Negative experience: First negative review I have ever had to write for anything! Sadly, the worst experience I have had at any fitness class denied entry due to being late and charged full cancellation fee despite staff being aware of reasons for being late. Thankfully, any other studios I've attend in Melbourne are much more understanding and accommodating for clients.

Fantastic experience: What a great gym!! I did the rumble class with Chloe for the first time the other day. She was super knowledgeable and high energy. She called people by their names throughout the class which makes it feel more personal. The actual class was amazing - good boxing to body weight exercise ratio. Get ready to sweat!!

Positive experience: I go to 1R reshape twice a week at Richmond and/or South Yarra. Some of the trainers are exceptional. Really motivating and fun classes. Others are less impressive and enthusiastic. I think if you get to know the trainers you can find the ones that suit you. With that being said, none of the trainers provide much guidance on form. If you are a beginner I wouldn’t recommend a reshape class, or even a rebuild class (less intense). The classes are dark and the music is loud so the trainers are just not able to assist you. Very easy to injure yourself. As much as I enjoy the classes, I have been disappointed with the level of customer service at 1R. I pay weekly and they only let you pause for 2 weeks per year before they charge you. For someone who is often away 4 weeks this seems very poor especially as the membership is quite pricy already. More importantly, they charge a $15 no show fee if you don’t turn up to class. Even if you cancel within 12hrs you are charged a $10 late cancel fee. Unsure why as you have already paid for the session and surely this just encourages people to show up when they are unwell? Very extreme and the worst I have experienced from any gym. Not in line with an organisation that should encourage health and wellness. Today I was charged $15 despite attending my class not sure why as I checked into class with reception staff. Hoping this is refunded and rectified ASAP. Disappointing. So close to being a great gym. Sort it out 1R!

Fantastic experience: I haven’t been to the gym in over a year now and I started coming to 1R. The trainers are so lovely and compassionate, the workouts are also really fun but challenging. I like the nightclub atmosphere and how friendly the community is. I want to thank Alejandro and Scarlett for being such encouraging and kind trainers especially.

Positive experience: Not for pregnant or postpartum women - instructors either don't know how to modify or just don't - you're very much left to your own devices. Kaya much better in that regard, or One Hot Yoga nearby (which does reformer). Otherwise, gym is nice and clean and staff are friendly.

Fantastic experience: Had a rumble (boxing) class here after trying a few studios around melbourne and this is by far the best. Instructor made us feel welcome right away and was happy to give us tips on our form. The class was energetic and made you push yourself. The included boxing gloves was also a bonus. I am not very strong/big so I loved that you worked on your punches with a bag rather than another person. Amazing workout.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and really fun (hard, but good hard) classes!

Fantastic experience: Amazing staff, great workouts and just and overall amazing experience ♥️♥️

Fantastic experience: So much fun! Great music and killer treadmill runs

Fantastic experience: So many good classes & great times!!

Fantastic experience: 1R is the best!! You don’t know until you’ve tried it!!

Negative experience: Went to enquire, and I was told to go online and find more information. Totally rude.

Fantastic experience: Is an amazing gym and the classes are amazing

Fantastic experience: Amazing vibes and great trainers

Fantastic experience: Super good

Fantastic experience: The definitely my favourite gym! Great music, lights, and instructor.

Fantastic experience: Loved the intensity. They make you work hard and you’re sore for days but makes you want to go back and back!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great classes, great instructors - highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: One of the best workouts in melbourne! Definitely recommend x

Fantastic experience: Awesome boxing gym classes, the experience is like none other that I’ve done before. I live over an hour away and it is worth the drive once or twice a week for this experience!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved 1R. The reshape was my favorite, the instructors are so good at getting you pumped up and motivating you to push yourself.

Fantastic experience: A stylish and fun gym that leaves you hurting and in a drenched sweat at the end of each session. Music is on point and so is the vibe of the instructors!

Fantastic experience: Great classes and trainers, always a good vibe in studio. The work outs are challengeing and fun!

Fantastic experience: Love the amount of different class times, always guaranteed a good sweat with excellent playlists. Plus Prosecco Fridays!!

Fantastic experience: 1R has something for everyone! The trainers are amazing and passionate, there is always something fun on in the studio and there are plenty of class times to suit throughout the day. Love it here :)

Fantastic experience: 1R is a great gym! All of the trainers are super motivating! It is the best workout experience in Melbourne!!

Fantastic experience: 1R South Yarra is the absolute best. I have no words to describe it other than I don’t think I will ever find a gym that matches or comes close to what 1R is. Not only are the classes incredible, but the trainers are the kind of trainers that you can genuinely tell they want you to excel for the good of your strength and feels, rather than your looks. 11/10 to 1R over and over, I will recommend it forever!!

Fantastic experience: The BEST gym in the South East with amazing facilities. I love the mix of classes, they have all the classes I love, including boxing, pilates and bootcamp style! High energy and intense. The instructors are all super approachable and friendly. Would highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: I Love 1R! I’ve been an elite sportsperson, crossfitter, runner, etc but 1R just hits that perfect spot of being super hard but also super fun! This boutique gym is full of positive vibes, friendly staff and classes that will leave you sweating and feeling like you made the most of every second of your precious time! Do yourself a favour and book yourself in for a class at 1R

Fantastic experience: The only gym you need! 3 styles of classes for all levels. I’ve never been so challenged & fit! The trainers, music, facilities and venue are amazing. Also Prosecco Friday’s is a thing - does not disappoint!

Fantastic experience: I am so obsessed with 1R that I chose where to live based on proximity to the gym. It is one of the best in Melbourne! Vibes are always on point, facilities are amazing, trainers are professional and so motivating! Love love love it ❤️

Fantastic experience: No better place to burn 500-700 calories in 45 minutes than in 1R's Reshape class! I discovered 1Rebel in London and was thrilled when they opened a studio in South Yarra. 1R is known for their Reshape, Reformer Pilates and Rumble (boxing) classes. Reshape is my favourite class. For someone who can't get motivated in the gym, the Reshape classes got me coming back regularly, with its combination of speed and endurance sets on the threadmill, full body/ weights workout on the bench + banger tunes. It's a tough but fun workout and will get you sweaty. There's a 'Rebuild' class which is an easier version (75%) of 'Reshape' if you opt for a less intense class. Gemma's classes are the best! Have I mentioned the shower? The amenities are a delight, thank you! 1R can benefit from these suggestions which are adopted in the London studios: - the "time" on the threadmills in the Reshape classes are not accurate - these can be easily fixed; - trainers should tell attendees to stand either on the left or right hand side of the bench - otherwise it could be chaotic; - trainers should ask attendees to place their legs at the 'R' symbol on the bench because of the lighting; - when trainers demonstrate a workout, ask the attendees to follow along; - incorporate more ab workouts on the bench; - the London change rooms has cotton buds, make up remover, warm face towels, recyclable disposable bags (for dirty clothes) and Nike merchandise! Can we have these in Melbourne? I recommend the Aus trainers to check out Scott's workout in London. Overall 1R deserves a 5 star rating for being one of the best Aussie gyms. Keep up the good work!

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing concept. Its such a great place, super clean facilities, and you have choices that suit your need. Its so good, I’m here almost every day! But most of all, has an amazing bunch people who help me achieve my fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: 1R is the best gym I have been to in a while. The facilities are next level and the workouts are insane. I keep thinking they will get easier but they never do, which is what has driven me to keep going and keep getting better. Highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants the flexibility of having 3 different class styles everyday. The music is always on point and the staff are awesome.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. Great offering in terms of classes and times of sessions. The classes have some great instructors that really know their stuff and can help you modify a session based on what you need. Exercising in the dark is also a bonus and they always play great music.

Fantastic experience: UK’s 1Rebel now in Melbourne. The studio is more akin to a nightclub so you don’t really feel like you’re working out (that’s what makes it so fun!) Three concepts to choose from — Rumble, Reformer and Reshape, so there is something for everyone. Rumble is what got me in the door but I love all three! Variety of coaches on the timetable which all bring energy and enthusiasm to get you pumped. Prosecco served after classes on Friday evenings if you’re into that too! Amenities are clean and modern, and towels and toiletries available.

Fantastic experience: Love!! It’s great to be able to have a membership that covers a variety of different classes. I really enjoy all 3 methods and find the trainers to be super encouraging, motivating and helpful!

Positive experience: THIS GYM IS NOT BEGINNER FRIENDLY. Do not, I repeat do not go to this gym if you are a beginner and new to the fitness scene. This gym is catered for intermediate individuals who are already working on their set fitness goals. I did a reshape class, the trainer was lovely and energetic. He was supportive and kind during the session. However, I am not fond of these exercises and especially with weights, it is very dangerous. The intensity and along with incorrect form while having the pressure to complete the exercise. After I trained, I felt incredibly sore in the wrong places and my shoulders and back have never felt so painful. It has become hard for me to stand up straight, sit down properly and even just relax because of the pain I am in. I would not recommend this gym for anyone who is not well trained about proper form and needs to build their endurance first. It would have been a better experience if I was stronger and knew what I was doing. The people at the front were also quite stand off ish, making me nervous to even order a drink. Showers were dirty. I would still love to try their Pilates and rumble class, however I will not be able to return due to my current injury from the last session.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely adore this gym. One of the best in Melbourne. The classes, gym, staff and trainers are fantastic!! This gym is incredible with awesome playlists too! Recommend many friends and will continue to do so!!!

Fantastic experience: WHAT A VIIIIIIIBE. BEST CLASS EVER!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym in the heart of south yarra. Trainers are amazing and the gym itself incredible.

Fantastic experience: 1 of the best in Melbourne

Fantastic experience: Honestly the most beautiful gym i've ever seen. The lighting and sound system is insane. This is so much more than just a gym. Everyone should get to experience 1R at least once in their life.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, I had one of the best workouts I've had in a while, can't wait to go back this week.

Fantastic experience: AMAZING gym studio with 3 hiit classes which makes you feel amazing. Would definitely recommend a visit to this club vibe studio for a great workout.

Fantastic experience: Love the Rumble classes which have improved 10x from London to Melbourne. Great music and energy from the trainer and fellow members.

Fantastic experience: Amazing new gym in south yarra with great amenities. Trainers and staff are great and the studios have a cool atmosphere!

Fantastic experience: Unbelievable experience. Lovely team - the front of house, trainers and cleaners are incredible. Beautiful club. And most importantly, the hardest workout I have ever done (in a good way). Always leave 1R on a high.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym, brilliant concept. Lovely staff and nothing short of a pleasure to work with. Exciting new precinct in South Yarra. Peace and good things.
