Fantastic experience: As someone who has always struggled with weight loss & motivation to exercise, starting at Marion PT has been an absolute life saver. As someone who used to cry in a gym parking lot for hours on end, too terrified to even go into the front doors, working with the guys at Marion PT has been a dream come true. They are nothing but understanding and have an incredible ability to not only get the weight loss results I’ve been struggling to achieve for so long, but I’m getting stronger & fitter as well. I am so so grateful to them & hope that anyone reading this gives it a go.

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend these guys highly enough! Always a warm welcome, a chat, and a great workout balanced with great fun.

Fantastic experience: Duran and Henk are excellent trainers. Great gym, great programs. They really know their craft! Love going to the gym now!

Fantastic experience: Great personal trainers who know how to help people who have injuries or just want to improve their strength and fitness. They have a great knowledge of anatomy and what exercises help or hinder. Highly recommended for their personalised support to help you reach your personal goals, help recovery from an injury or just maintenance and to help minimise aging. I enjoy going to every session knowing that it will be unique and designed around my goals, ability and any current injuries. 12 April - Now four trainers all with the same focus. January 2024 - the trainer's and studying biomechanics and incorporating new exercises for rehabilitation and the results are impressive. July 2024 - One of the trainers is now studying to be a physiotherapist at university. Rehabilitation and joint mobility is becoming more of a focus. Dec 2024 Nice Christmas present giveaway to regular visitors.
Fantastic experience: This is the best "personal training" gym south of Adelaide. The guys are great! "One on one" personal training at its best.
cheers John for the nice words, looking forward to see you again this friday
Fantastic experience: Duran was professional, friendly and not judgemental at all which was such a relief as I felt quite ashamed with myself turning up to MarionPT at my highest ever weight. A week in and I'm feeling positive that with their support I can get in the best shape and health of my life. Their attention and care is next to none. Wish I'd made the investment earlier!!
Fantastic experience: I started at Marion PT with Duran in late February and our initial sessions involved a sensible assessment of where I was at strength and fitness wise to enable a better understanding of my goals. Since then we have worked together with Duran taking me deep into ‘let’s see what you’ve got territory’ with regular forays to the very limits of my abilities. This is always done with great care, but with an eye to what is possible now & what will be possible later. We even managed to find some interesting ways to work around the COVID-19 restrictions. Good work Duran!
Fantastic experience: Henk is the best PT in the business !
Fantastic experience: I started training with MarionPT about 12 months ago and really enjoyed the group sessions. Once I became pregnant though I thought the fun would have to stop. Henk, however has been great at adapting exercises for me and making me feel comfortable with continuing my fitness journey. As a result I'm actually still feeling pretty fit and strong. Thanks Henk for the motivation and support!!
Fantastic experience: I went in for my first Fitness Assessment with Henk on Monday and Henk was friendly, professional, and welcoming. The gym is small and welcoming, not overbearing while still having a lot of equipment and machines for all types of exercises. Henk ran me through some basic things and I felt safe and comfortable at all times. I was encouraged but never pushed beyond my limits for my first session. Can’t wait to go back on Friday.
Thank you Corinne. it was great to meet you. I am looking forward to see you again on Friday for another training session. We will be able to do a full body composition scan with our new scale and set up your nutrition plan as well. It will be awesome.
Fantastic experience: I have recently started at Marion PT and have been really impressed. The first day I walked into the gym I felt warmly welcomed and comfortable straight away thanks to Henk and Duran. My sessions have been tailored to me and where I'm at with my fitness level - Henk has been great! I'm looking forward to my fitness journey at Marion PT!
Fantastic experience: I should done this earlier and here I am. If you want looking for a personal trainer and I definitely recommend Marion PT. Bothof them are fantastic and they always make you feel pleasant and they are very patient answer all your questions. I had training with Henk and I am still is now. He helped me build up my muscles strength and trained me work on correct posture. Thanks Henk.
Fantastic experience: January 2023 update - Back at it for another year. Was amazed how quickly I started reaching my goals last year. The guys are full of encouragement and empathy which means there's no judgement when I fall off the wagon in my training or work/family commitments take over my life temporarily. They just help me get back into it again when I can and help me refocus on my goals again. Top notch trainers who never disappoint. June 2022 update - they moved to a bigger, nicer studio earlier this year. Same great staff and service, but a much nicer venue, more spacious, and newer equipment. My five star review would be six stars now if that were possible. Great trainers who specialise in over-40s but cater to all ages. It's a small, venue but the equipment is in good order and there's plenty of weights, machines and equipment to keep the workouts varied and interesting. Both main trainers are very friendly, they listen and understand. Highly recommend you give them a try. Having thought so highly of these guys back in 2019 before I went overseas, I have returned in April 2021 for more personal training. They were the only ones I considered when I decided to back into it. Happy to report that their facilities, service and humour are just as good as I remembered them to be. It's good to be back.
Appriciate the kind words Rod, looking forward to our next session
Fantastic experience: Small studio with personalised training that caters for your individual needs, goals and physical situation. Both guys are fun, motivating and very "real".
thank you Carrie for the nice words
Fantastic experience: Such a warm & friendly environment. Duran is extremely supportive and his knowledge of the human body & movement is second to none!
great having you onboard
Fantastic experience: Henk knows his stuff, is very friendly and polite. Love getting PT twice a week. Recommended for sure!
it is always a blast training you. you are an absolute champ
Fantastic experience: 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!
thanks Vicki
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Duran since Jan 2018. I feel lucky to have found him so close to home. He is so positive and encouraging. Plus he sets you up to succeed. It is hard to find a fabulous PT. Duran is one of the best!
Thank you Paula
Fantastic experience: New to PT. only 2 sessions in, enjoying the professional and supportive direction from Henk.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: A Relaxed good vibe. Boys know their stuff its not just exercise but diet, nutrition and lifestyle. I recommend highly!
Thanks Dave
Fantastic experience: It's rare to find a Personal Trainer who can work your body, makes you sweat with the next day soreness feeling. Thanks Duran, I totally Recommend it.
Fantastic experience: I am loving every session I have with Duran at Marion PT. He understands my goals and I am enjoying the positive results I am experiencing. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for the kind words
Fantastic experience: Met with Adele from Prosperity Nutrition a few times now and found her to be easy to speak with and explained nutrition in simple to understand terms. This is an absolute plus as it complements the next stage into inner health along with fitness. I count myself as one of the lucky ones to be part of a supportive team of fitness & health professionals at Marion PT, you can too. Cheers Diane
Thank you guys. You are amazing
Fantastic experience: While training with Duran i have found him to to be very professional and encouraging. He ensures you get a great session and that your technique is correct. He has helped also with my nutrition in ways to improve with ideas. Thanks for your great work
Fantastic experience: Great motivators and very aware of my limitations and personal objectives. The personal support is terrific. Highly recommended.
Always great to hear such good feedback
Fantastic experience: Training at Marion Personal Training has been very supportive with me trying to resolve my back problems. They always provide new ways to do things which keeps it very engaging and interesting. I always look forward to them pushing me to do the best I can. The only part is I wish they gave more involved diet support, but I am being nit picky
Thanks for your honest review Rob. I am currently working with a nutritionist to include a nutrition program. We to have noticed that there is a need for more than mealplans and recipes. Hopefully we can implement this new program in the not to distant future.
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Duran For a year now, with a break in the middle due to a work place injury. Duran was great when i started,. He didn't push me too hard that i never wanted to go back, but he did push me to my limit. He understood my injury and wasn't pushy for me to return. He is always learning and studying to better himself, so that he can pass it on to his clients. Henk and Duran make a warm and welcoming place to train and i highly recommend anyone to go down and check them out. I know you won't be disappointed. Sarah
Thanks for your kind words Sarah.
Fantastic experience: A great team to get you inspired to keep fit and strong. I'd especially recommend them if you have been thinking about getting fit, but the idea of just going to a gym and being self-accountable to keep going is something you know isn't going to work for you. They will keep you accountable for your fitness goals and motivate you to go beyond them. Their approach is to make your whole body strong by working and developing all parts of your body, not just the bits you think you need to work on.
Thanks Rusty.
Fantastic experience: Been going 3 years and still enjoying the challenge.
Thanks Kym. It is always a blast training you
Fantastic experience: Every session leaves me feeling motivated and on track to meet my goals! I like the mix of weights, cardio, stretches and other exercises so it is never boring! Highly recommend Duran!
Thanks Kylie
Fantastic experience: Been visiting the guys for several months now and loving it, such a friendly and welcoming environment. Duran and Henk know how to push you to your best and know when you've reached your absolute max and need to switch it up. I'm reaching my goals slowly and surely, and I can feel the progress each week. I would recommend to anyone!
Thanks Cam. You are an absolute champ.
Fantastic experience: Always enjoy my sessions with Henk, as they are always different. Such a nice environment to exercise in as well.
Thank you Rachel. I always enjoy your positive energy, keep up the hard work ☺
