The team has built a strong, supportive community where everyone encourages each other and grows together. The gym is fully equipped with everything you need for strength training and cardio. I’m more than happy to remain a member for years to come.

Fantastic experience: As a man who has a few gym memberships, emerge is my favourite by far, always great vibes and the owners are super welcoming and involved with the members

Fantastic experience: I have been at this gym since day 1. What sets it apart from other gyms is the amazing equipment, being uncrowded/not having to wait for equipment and the community. Incredibly grateful to have found this gym 3+ years ago.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, staff and atmosphere. Professional staff, highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Emerge is by far the best gym!! Every gym can have great equipment but not every gym can have the community feel that Emerge has! Everyone is friendly, warm and made to feel part of the family!

Fantastic experience: Trained here all throughout my pregnancy and felt very comfortable to do so! Great atmosphere, love this gym!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member since the gym opened. The environment is top-notch. The quality of the equipment is unmatched. Highly recommended to anybody.

Fantastic experience: Hands down the most inviting and uplifting gym I’ve trained at, especially as a female. The staff are all incredibly welcoming, the space is spotless, the lighting is perfect and the equipment is 10/10. You can tell Emerge truly cares about building a positive community and making sure everyone feels at home from day one!

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Jules and cal changed my life would recommend to anyone I know

Negative experience: Had incredibly poor dealings with one of the owners “Cal”. Everyone else was great to deal with. Unfortunately the atmosphere & attitude has changed over time and the gym is not what it once was.

Negative experience: Owners are selfish and don’t care about their members, I expressed my concerns and didn’t even get a reply when I wanted to cancel my membership. If it was my business I would call and try and rectify if I cared about the members, anyway their loss ! Hope they go broke

Fantastic experience: I started going to this gym while pregnant and loved it. It’s exclusive and never overcrowded, with plenty of equipment. The facilities are always clean and well-maintained. The staff are super friendly, and the owners are incredibly helpful. There’s also a great sense of community here. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Emerge for over a year now and it is by far, the best gym I have tried. The staff are incredibly nice and supportive, and the members make it an inclusive, motivating environment.

Fantastic experience: This place has become my home away from home, the people who both work and work out in the gym have been amazingly friendly and caring. Couldn’t ask for anything better imo.

Fantastic experience: The gym exudes a welcoming and energetic vibe. Whether you’re new to fitness or not, you’ll feel comfortable and motivated as the staff are so lovely and helpful. The overall ambiance is friendly and supportive. The equipment is amazing, and everything is kept very clean and tidy.

Negative experience: Cal has a pattern of treating certain members differently, showing clear favoritism toward some while being completely dismissive or even rude to others. He only engages with a select group of people—mainly those he deems “worthy” or who fit a certain image—and ignores or belittles others.

Fantastic experience: Cal & Julez are two passionate individuals that have birthed the idea of an exclusive gym experience - free from the typical packed and crowded nature that other franchises typically display. The capped membership has fostered an environment where people uplift, inspire and motivate one another - best demonstrated through the incredibly tight-knit community events and inclusive social activations that the gym facilitate. For myself personally, the two have supported and enabled me to unlock my fitness goals during the span of 2024. I managed to lose 25kg, step onto a bodybuilding stage and find a newfound confidence in myself - that is something that is priceless to me. Further from this, I have had a close friend of mine (who is also a member) have an incredibly distasteful situation with another member at this gym - much to the disappointment of Cal and Julez. Within the week, this member was asked to leave and to never return. Unfortunately for those in the gym community, particularly women, they are prone to the male gaze that is heavily prominent in society. Fortunately, the owners at Emerge Gym fight passionately for their members and their experience at the gym. I have seen this firsthand. This gym has a special place in my heart, as it does for many others that have the privilege to train here - and I would highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym!!! And great staff very welcoming!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, would recommend!

Negative experience: It’s one thing for a gym to have issues, but it’s another thing entirely for the owner to attack members for pointing them out. Instead of fixing anything, Cal and his team just laugh about it and dismiss people who actually care.

Fantastic experience: staff 10/10 constantly keeping the gym clean and tidy. easy going and continuously listening to members feed back to make emerge number 1

Positive experience: i have been a member of emerge for over a year now. in that time not only staff but management have gone out of their way to create the most positive gym experience you can find on this side of town. the sense of community at emerge is unparalleled to any other gym i’ve trained at, which speaks volumes not just about the gym but the community that has built around it. plus never having to wait for a machine has been a major upside. fantastic gym , couldn’t ask for a better place to look forward to coming each day

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love coming to Emerge. Equipment is great, staff are friendly, and coaching is UNREAL. Couldn’t be happier

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great equipment and friendly staff! Would definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Been here for 2 and a half years now. First and only gym i’ll be at. Amazing culture

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend coming to this gym! The atmosphere is fantastic and great vibes for a work out!! The equipment is always readily available and clean! The staff and owners are extremely friendly and helpful. I’ll be recommending this gym to my friends!

Fantastic experience: Emerge is hands down the best gym I’ve been to - the second I walked in there, I knew it’d become my second home. The staff there are incredible - warm, welcoming, always around for a spot & have caught spiders for me on the odd occasion The equipment is awesome and enables me to get the most out of my sessions. Management are always open to feedback & are continually working to improve the space. Couldn’t recommend the gym more ❤️

Fantastic experience: So far Emerge coaching has been the best experience, they’ve helped transform my body drastically and now, helping me build muscle. They are so knowledgeable in nutrition and training that it has helped me perform while working 6 days a week as a tradie along with other activities going on in my life. They suit your nutrition to your needs so it doesn’t feel like a chore eating what you don’t like. They make the food enjoyable for you. I recommend anyone who wants guidance and routine in there life.

Negative experience: I Saw How They Treated My Friend—Absolutely Disgusting Behavior from Management I was a member of this Gym, but after their treatment and what happened to my friend here, I can’t stay silent. If you’re considering joining, do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. Racist & Disrespectful Treatment from the Owner, Cal My friend has been a loyal member of this gym for years, and they had every right to voice concerns about the terrible hygiene, broken toilets, and lack of air conditioning—problems that have been ignored for way too long. But instead of listening, the owner, Cal, was unbelievably rude and dismissive.

Negative experience: I would give ZERO STARS if I could!!!!!! I am incredibly frustrated with my experience at this gym, which has been nothing short of disappointing. The owners show a complete lack of professionalism and accountability. Instead of listening to feedback about the conditions of the gym, they dismiss it outright and respond with hostility. When I took the time to provide honest and necessary feedback, the owner’s response was shockingly rude, asking, "Why are you even here?" and indicating us to leave the gym. This is beyond unacceptable. How can a business operate effectively if the owners refuse to take any responsibility or work towards improving the quality of service they provide? It’s clear that they only seek empty, positive feedback rather than any real input that could lead to improvement. If you can't handle honest criticism, you have no place running a business. I would strongly advise against trusting the fake reviews and consider the appalling management at this gym. The owners do absolutely nothing for their members or the gym itself. Their treatment was not only disrespectful but also racist, making us feel completely unwelcome. They asked inappropriate and demeaning questions like, "Which industry do you even work in?" and treated us as if we were fools. This is beyond unprofessional, and it’s clear that they have no regard for their members' well-being or dignity.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, culture, equipment and coaches, great place to train!

Fantastic experience: Great people amazing powerlifting equipment

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Emerge Gym and the team enough! Julez and Cal have built something really special - the gym is a real community and everyone is so welcoming. I’m 10 weeks into my 6 month transformation journey with coach Julez, and I’ve already hit my goal of losing 10kgs! We’ve had to set some new goals and I’m so excited to see where I will get to feeling the best I’ve felt in years, all thanks to this legend and all his support and encouragement!

Fantastic experience: I've been training at gyms all up the east coast for the last 10 years, everytime I'm back in Melbourne I always go here now. Some gym's have all the gear an no idea but everytime I went here they where so accomidating and today the owner saw I was new an came an introduced himself, good gym and great staff with great vibe an clean amenities.

Fantastic experience: Good layout, clean, friendly staff and well equipped. They allow once off visits and I’d definitely recommend giving them a visit or joining if you’re in the area.

Fantastic experience: Been to many gyms in the past, this is by far the best. Cheap membership, great culture, awesome events, very clean and great coffee!

Positive experience: Good gym. Lots for leg day. So many machines that it's sometimes too hectic and not enough space, especially at busy times. However the machines are pretty good. Two pendulum squats, Cybex hack, lots of bars and powerlifting benches and racks. Dumbbells could be better. Also need more cleaning stations, no one has towels and there's no wet wipes, so can get a bit eweh on hot days. Still would join though, staff seem really nice and genuine. Oh and also parking is a bit random. Almost got blocked in.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym. Phenomenal setup. Great crowd. Couldn’t ask for much more.

Fantastic experience: They truly have the best facilities and friendliest staff at Emerge. The culture in this gym is unmatched!!

Fantastic experience: State of the art equipment, incredibly helpful staff and trainers to help you hit your training goals. The best vibe and it is ALWAYS clean!!! My motivation 10x when I walk in!

Fantastic experience: Elite Gym

Fantastic experience: By far one of the best gyms I’ve been too in the country, I have had the opportunity to train a lot of places around Australia. But when I came to emerge to see what the hype was about I wasn’t disappointed. The equipment is new and not like other gyms that are lacking equipment. The atmosphere there makes you want to just hit a new PB, the staff and owners have a good sense of community and that reflects on the members. There was a women going for a PB deadlift and everyone went over to chant her on. This isn’t like a commercial gym that wants your money and waves you through the door, they learn you name they learn you story. They make it warm and inviting when you come through the door. That’s why I didn’t bother with any other gyms whilst I was in Melbourne I got 4 day passes and by day 2 they knew who I was and my story. So I figured with how great my experience was I’d leave a review for them. For bodybuilding/powerlifting gym started by two mates, it exceeds my expectations. I believe this will be my regular when I come back.

Fantastic experience: The only gym I can vouch for in the east, they don’t discriminate between members and support them like a family. Best lighting and awesome staff well.

Fantastic experience: Best gym membership of the last 15 years. Excellent quality equipment 24/7 for beginners and pros, bodybuilder and powerlifter playground.

Fantastic experience: Very well equiped gym. Brand new equipment and friendly staff. Very positive atmosphere. Plenty of equipment with little to no wait time. Highly recommend!
