Moonee Valley Health and Fitness: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Russell and his staff at MV Fitness are fantastic. I went there to get ready for an application to join the police and with their guidance and assistance I was easily able to meet the requirements. Trainer Matt was exceptionally helpful and provided great coaching to help me not only pass but exceed the standards required. Even after passing the standard required, Russell, Matt and all the staff at MV Fitness were incredibly helpful and genuinely interested in continuing my fitness improvement. I can't recommend MV Fitness highly enough. The staff are incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and most importantly supportive. They will help you achieve whatever fitness goals you are striving for!
Appreciate the kind words Carl. you are a pleasure to have in the gym.
Fantastic experience: I've been seeing Hamish weekly for the past four months, and the lasting effects of our work together have been remarkable. His attentiveness and deep knowledge make every session productive and insightful. Beyond just treating symptoms, Hamish takes a holistic approach to injury rehabilitation, addressing the underlying contributors to ensure long-term recovery and performance improvement. What truly sets him apart is his ability to make the process enjoyable—our sessions are not only effective but also engaging and motivating. His guidance has had a significant impact on my recovery, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for expert in the field.
Thank you for your kind words Jonathan and for taking the time to share your experience here at our exercise physiology gym.
It’s fantastic to hear how much you’ve benefited from working with EP Hamish over the past 4 months and we’re so pleased that he has had such a positive impact on your rehabilitation and training goals.
We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to continue supporting you here in the gym.
Thanks again! Russ - MVFit
Fantastic experience: I've never enjoyed going to the gym and could never stick to exercising regularly until I found MVFit. The trainers are fantastic and welcoming, and the environment is fun. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation Carolina.
We're thrilled to hear that you've found a place you enjoy exercising and feel supported.
Keep up the great work and it's a pleasure having you as part of our gym community.
Fantastic experience: I am not a paid actor. Before joining Moonee Valley Health and Fitness I had little interest in joining a gym for a long period of time, but now after 11 months, I feel like I’m part of a community and not just a gym. Highly recommend here for anyone looking to start, resume or take the next step in their exercise journey.
Thank you for the kind words Simon. It's been fantastic to see your commitment over the past 11 months, and we're excited to keep supporting your health and fitness goals. Thank you for recommending us, it means a lot.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place! Can’t recommend enough. A lifesaver for me when I was pregnant and helping me to regain my core strength after two kids. All the instructors are amazing, especially Hoda! Best value for reformer pilates in the west.
Thank you so much for your review Mary. We're thrilled to hear that we could support you during your pregnancy and in rebuilding your core strength afterwards. It's wonderful to know that you've really enjoyed our Clinical Pilates classes.
Your kind words mean a lot to us and will help others looking for a supportive and welcoming environment. Thank you again for being a part of our MVFit community.
Fantastic experience: I have had the pleasure of being a client at MVFit and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Russell and Alex are very nice guys to deal with on a personal level, and on top of that they are also very knowledgeable when it comes to PT training and individual training programs. They truly helped me with my individual fitness goals and progression, and I would highly recommend MVFit to anyone who is looking for a great exercise physiology clinic or personal training gym!
It’s been a pleasure having you attend the MVFit Gym. We’re so glad to hear that your experience with us has been positive and that Russell and Alex could support you in achieving your fitness goals.
We’re here to help everyone feel supported and confident in their journey, and it’s fantastic to see your hard work paying off.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend the lovely team at moonee valley health and fitness with all your exercise needs. I especially loved the mum and bub classes where I could bring my toddler along to. And the clinical pilates were amazing too it was my favourite thing to do while pregnant and has helped me with better post partum strength this time around! I must say now that I've moved away I do really miss my classes with Matt very much so
Thank you so much Kara! We're thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed the mum and bub classes and the Clinical Pilates sessions. It's wonderful to know that the classes helped with your postpartum strength too .
If you're ever move back to the Moonee Ponds area, we’d love to have you drop by for a class or just to say hello.
Fantastic experience: It's been fantastic. The staff are wonderful, and I've had the best exercise physio Alex helping me in the gym. Everyone should try it and come along, I think it is the best gym in Melbourne.
Fantastic experience: MVFit is an incredibly welcoming and supportive gym. Russ and the team are highly professional and supportive. As someone who had never been comfortable going to a gym before, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to get into fitness!
We really appreciate you leaving the feedback and it has been a pleasure to have you train with our team!
Fantastic experience: I couldn't recommend this gym more highly! The instructors and trainers are amazing and it's such a welcoming space with a community feeling. I came across MVFit half way through my pregnancy, specifically joining for the Pre/Post Natal circuit but absolutely falling in love with clinical Pilates. I attended Pilates classes right up to the day before my baby was born and counted down the days until I could return. The tailored sessions left me feeling strong throughout and provided much needed me-time in the week. Thank you Russ, Hoda, Matt and the team for everything this year!
Thank yo so much for taking the time to leave us a review Carina.
You've been a pleasure to have in our Pilates Reformer classes and we really appreciate the recommendation from you.
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend to anyone looking for Pilates classes. Such a warm, welcoming and friendly team and small Pilates classes are fantastic. Great for people looking for pre and postnatal pilates too which is how I began my journey
Thank you so much Angela for the kind words. It's been a pleasure to have you here in the clinical pilates classes and gym throughout your pregnancy and beyond. Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: Really could not be happier with my decision to join this gym. It has provided everything I was looking for and so much more. As someone who hasn't been to the gym in years, I was feeling nervous about joining but every single experience - from the friendly chat with Russ on my initial phone call and the generous trial offer, to the supportive and knowledgeable staff, the range of interesting and effective classes, the small group sizes and female-friendly atmosphere, and the easy-to-use app - it's all been extremely positive. And that just some of what on offer here! Six months in and gym sessions are now completely part of my weekly routine, and I feel stronger, younger and more energised! Would highly recommend
You've been a pleasure to have train in the gym Jo and thank you so much for the amazing review!
Fantastic experience: MVFit is a great gym with awesome trainers led by Russ. The strength and conditioning classes that run Tuesdays and Thursdays have a great balance of exercises that get mixed up monthly. Being smaller groups the trainers help out with technique and make sure you get a solid work out! Highly recommend MVFit
Thanks Don. It's been fantastic to have you here training in the gym for these past few years and you've definitely been a great addition to our local Moonee Valley community of members.
Thanks again for the review!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Russ and his team at MVFit. They are extremely knowledgeable and professional. They helped me achieve my weight loss goals and also helped me manage my chronic back pain with their techniques.
Thanks Alan, it's been great to have you as part of the community here at MVFit. The commitment you have had with following the advice of our exercise physiologists and personal trainers in the gym has been fantastic. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: Not only is there a great range of classes with fantastic instructors, but also I have never felt so much a party of a gym community as when I have joined this gym. I initially joined just for the clinical Pilates but have now expanded my repertoire - and fitness - by mixing it up with the strength and circuit classes. I also love being able to bring my baby with me which increases the timing of classes I can attend!
Thanks Lina! It's been fantastic to have you and your bub in the gym classes and pilates.
Fantastic experience: Thank you Russell and the entire team at the MVFit gym. Having all my training overseen by exercise physiologist Lachy this past 6 months has made this experience the best gym I have ever been to. My training sessions are something I now look forward to each week and am finally feeling the improvements in my strength and fitness. He is a great motivator, very friendly and knowledgeable and I want to thank Lachy for helping me with all the results we've had so far.
Fantastic experience: Robert the masseur is fantastic. He understands the physiology of your body and targets your troubled areas.
Fantastic experience: I have never had a massage as great as this. Not only is Robby is as professional as they come, he provides a massage service second to none. He hit spots I didn't even know needed work and i walked out of ther feeling weightless. Absolutely amazing! I had a 6 minute walk back to my car which I spend saying "whoooooa" and "ohhh my god" and "what the hell" Needless to say, I have found my new long term masuse
Fantastic experience: Moonee Valley Health and Fitness is an awesome gym! The group fitness classes are great because they’re small enough the the trainers have the time to help everyone improve their form & technique. They’re also very covid safe - with classes structured around ensuring no equipment is shared without being disinfected first. The membership fee is also very reasonable!
Thank you Marley. It's been great to have you as part of the group personal training classes and were still able to achieve all you have over this past year with the VIC Govt gym restrictions. Thank you again for a wonderful review!
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I have been to. The staff there are very professional and motivating. We enjoyed the group PT classes. The class size is small and that helps in better training. The exercises vary and they modify it in case of any injury. Quality training, relaxed and friendly environment. Highly recommend.
It's been a pleasure to have you train at our gym and we've loved watching you build a regular exercise habit. Thank you Ranjani!
Fantastic experience: We absolutely enjoyed each and every min spent here for the past few months. The atmosphere is relaxing and the staff are amazing. The positivity of the staff and the relaxed atmosphere helped us start the day with a sense of calmness and ultimate energy. We will miss this place deeply and will definitely try to come back here if circumstances permit.
Thank you so much Jay. We've loved having you in the gym and in the group personal training sessions. You've made such amazing progress in your time here and best of luck with your move!
Fantastic experience: Very professional, targeted to individual needs, and focused on all round health and fitness. Russell and Amy make it a super friendly environment and together with Nick, the quality of training exceeded my expectations. By far, the best gym I have ever belonged to
Fantastic experience: I did PT sessions with Russell in order to pass my police fitness test. Russell is a great trainer and is very accommodating and with his help I was able to easily pass my fitness test today. I would definitely recommend coming here to do any sort of emergency service training because they will help motivate you to achieve your goals. Thanks Russell!
Congratulations on passing your police fitness testing Abbey! You did a great job being consistent in the gym with your training in the lead up to your assessment and the results you achieved were because of your efforts. It's been a pleasure to have you train with our personal training team. Well done again, and best of luck with a career in the Victorian Police force!
Fantastic experience: Throughly enjoy the group training and 1on1 personal training at Moonee Valley health & fitness. The knowledge and support of the PT's is motivating and has kept me on track with my fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: My strength & fitness over the past 9 months have come a long way since I started training at MV Fit. The group classes are always fun and vary so it's never the same workout. The PT's are friendly and professional & have offered some great advice to me. Thanks Russ and your team, I look forward to many more group classes (easy on the air dyne!)
Thank you Christy. We've loved having you as a member at our gym and trained with a number of our team in the 1 on 1 personal training sessions, and now also in the groups. I appreciate all your support and glad to hear that you love training at MVFit. - Russ

Thank you for the review Khy and we have absolutely loved having you as a member of the gym for so long now. It is people like yourself who train here, (not just the coaches) that makes the gym and our group training such a fabulous place to workout at. Thanks again. - Russ
Fantastic experience: I have been at MV Fitness for the past two years and I absolutely love it! Russell, Jeremy & all the trainers are amazing, they provide a really relaxed friendly environment but also encourage us to reach our fitness goals. Thank's guys!
Fantastic experience: MV FIT is a great local gym. I really enjoy the small class sizes and I love that they continually vary the sessions which keeps me interested. Usually I hate gyms and exercise- because I’m lazy. Despite this MVFIT have managed to keep me fit and interested 4-5 times a week for the last 12 months or so! I couldn’t recommend them highly enough!
Fantastic experience: I have been training with the MV team for six years now both as a PT client and participating in the group training sessions. Russell and the team are very patient, knowledgeable and committed to working with me to achieve my fitness goals. The group sessions have a true sense of community and inclusiveness. Everyone works hard, but at their own level and the trainers readily adapt the program so all can participate. My overall experience with MV Fitness has been great and I would recommend it to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Really enjoy the classes and Russell and the other trainers are very friendly and professional. I really appreciate the advise given to improve my technique and performance. My fitness and strength has greatly improved over the last 3 months. The classes are very friendly and supportive with everyone working towards their own goals and having fun at the same time. The gym itself is very well equipped and spacious. Would highly recommend MV Health and Fitness.
Fantastic experience: Russell and the crew at MV Health and Fitness are super knowledgeable, supportive and fun. This is a great gym to build your fitness with down to earth friendly people.
Fantastic experience: This gym was my happy place when I lived in Melbourne. The trainers are very professional and knowledgeable, and will help you achieve your goals. Or in my case - help find good goals and my way towards that goal. I trust the trainers completely, and would sincerely recommend MV Health and Fitness for anyone, regardless of their goals.
Fantastic experience: I started working out at MV Fitness about a year ago. Since then I have noticed a huge improvement in my fitness and general energy levels. I actually have some muscle definition for the first time since I don't know when! The trainers there are fantastic! They are interested in each person individually and cater for people of all different fitness levels, providing a variety of activities. They also give really good advice on diet and general health. I couldn't recommend them more highly!
Fantastic experience: Awesome variety of exercises each session, so you never get bored! The trainers are really friendly and knowledgable, and consistently encourage you in challenge your individual fitness level. MV fit has excellent equipment and facilities, and it's really nice working out with a group of positive and motivated individuals on the journey to fitness!
Fantastic experience: I have been training at MV fit for about 18 months and out of all gyms and personal trainers I have been involved with, MV fit is definitely the best. Every session is challenging and always different. The small group sizes allows the trainers to spend time with you and ensure you are getting the most out of the session. The trainers are approachable and lots of fun. There's no intimidation and it suits every fitness level. I would recommend MV fit to anyone keen to get fit and have fun with a great bunch of people :)
Fantastic experience: The guys at MV fit know how to get the best out of you. Although they are group sessions, exercises are tailored to each individual to ensure you are always working hard. Great mixture of cardio and weights, highly recommend
Fantastic experience: The team at MV Fit have been great over the past 2 years that I've been training there. They are full of encouragement while helping you reach your potential. The sessions are always different and are catered towards all fitness levels. Would recommend MV Fit for anyone who is wanting to get fit whilst having fun (except for the 6am hill runs!)
Fantastic experience: I joined many gyms over the years and generally went twice, as I felt intimidated by the facility and there was ZERO coaching. I could never get out of my contract and paid for a years memberships without ever going back. But then mid 2015 decided to do some research on group fitness type facilities and found MVH&F. Browsed their website and thought, this place is more for me, joined with some hesitation, thinking it's going be the same as before, but..........you know what, it wasn't. The crew at MVH&F are great. The level of workouts are aimed exactly at my level, and then as my knowledge increased, I became a lot more confident of the workout and routines. The variety of classes are great! Exactly what I feel comfortable doing. And I have increased from 3 days a week to now 5 sessions a week and it rocks! Seriously though, I'm not much of a reviewer when it comes to things like this, but these guys deserve it. Great work, Russ, Dave and Sam!
Fantastic experience: If you have ever thought about personal training then please make the decision today to visit the team at MVFIT, I started out 9 months ago thinking I was going to hate working out but my Trainer Dave is such a great personal trainer! he knows how to motivate me, guides me through the exercises,I especially love the one on one environment so I know I matter where you don't get that in most gym's! I now love training as I know I'll never get bored as no session is the same, definitely looking forward what's in store for me , I highly recommend them to anyone
Fantastic experience: I was 8 months out from my wedding and still carrying a little winter weight :) when I came across Moonee Valley Health & Fitness, not only is it a great studio but the people there are so motivating and inviting, it makes the workouts way more enjoyable and definitely was not a drag to get myself to the sessions. I lost 8kg and got to my target weight and looked good for my wedding day all thanks to these guys. I still go to the studio for regular sessions and have turned my attention from weight loss to muscle gains, the flexibility of these guys and their targeted programming for what you want to get out of a session is great. HIGHLY recommend.
Fantastic experience: Hi Dave Just a short note to say thanks mate for the intense weekly sessions, feeling great and getting stronger every week. I am already seeing results from our hard work. Looking forward to our future sessions
Fantastic experience: I was looking for a flexible personal trainer that was local to me in Ascot Vale that would work with my schedule and also my fitness level. The MVFit team was welcoming from the start and the best thing is they train you the way you want to be trained. I now love to exercise and can't wait for my next session. I've trained in gyms before but this studio is unique to the area and has everything you need for your workouts. Thanks to Dave and Russ and the rest of the team. I can not recommend MVFit enough!
