RISE Training Centre: Opinions

Kim Ralph 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: We’ve had our two 13-year-olds training at Rise for the past six months, and they absolutely love it! The amazing team creates such a welcoming, family-like environment, and you can really see that reflected in their students. The coaches are knowledgeable, supportive, and push them to be their best while making every session fun. Definitely one of the best decisions we’ve made for our kids. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: My teenage son loves it here. It’s a well led, professional gym with a lovely community. There are free trial sessions, varied membership options and several different classes for differing ages/abilities. My only suggestion to improve things would be to run some additional holiday sessions.

Hi,

We have reported this review for being false and a misrepresentation of our business.

Fast Locks 9 months ago

Negative experience: Absolute scam of a place, they trick you into signing up for a membership after they tell you it’s a trial day. Months later haven’t shown up to one class and I’ve been charged over $600+ Contacted the boxing and after asking constantly for a refund, they blocked me. DO NOT GO HERE, insane prices and they will lock you into a subscription!

Hi,

We’re sorry for your concern, however; you attended our free trial class on the 5th September 2024 and signed our free trial waiver form, which does not take bank/credit card details. You then attended two more classes, without signing up for a membership. We sent you a message stating that if you would like to continue training at Rise, we would need you to sign up for a club membership. As a measure of good faith, we waived the payment for the two classes owing us.

On the 12th September 2024, you signed up to the GOLD (NO LOCK-IN) membership through our sign up link, where you agreed to a weekly direct debit, with no cancellation fees on cancellation, only a requirement of 4 weeks notice. We let our members know that we can pause their membership at any time, we just require notice. You did not notify us to pause your membership. We are not obligated to remind you of your agreed commitments.

When you did contact us to cancel your membership in December, we waived the owing 4 weeks of payments and offered additional free training as a sign of good will.

We make it very clear in our terms and conditions when signing a membership what our organisation’s obligations and responsibilities are. We are fully in our right to refuse a refund, based on our signed agreement and Australian Consumer Law.

We sent you a message regarding the outcome of our decision, however, you continued to send us inappropriate messages during the Christmas break period, thus it was decided to block you from sending further messages, as we believed that there was nothing further to discuss, and the communication we were receiving was unproductive and verging on harassment.

We at Rise have worked hard to foster a wonderful community and a positive word of mouth and do not accept this review as a fair and valid experience of Rise Training Centre.

Fantastic experience: Very clean and new looking gym, no beaten to pieces heavy bags with tape all over here. Was greeted by one of the instructors seemed very social and welcoming, quite comfortably insisting it would accommodate both my boys and myself and insisted we come back for a free session. Went to the open day today was great, awesome team feel in rise.

Fantastic experience: Rise Training Centre is by far my favourite gym I have trained at in Hervey Bay. With its impressive line up of boxing bags, gym equipment and of course the "boxing ring" for sparring gives the true Mauy Thai and Boxing experience. From Youth classes to all levels Boxing or Mauy Thai, Rise has it all. I love the fast paced full body workout I can achieve with all the available classes. Barney's knowledge and passion makes Rise such a great place to train in a happy, friendly environment. I highly recommend Rise Training Centre.

Fantastic experience: This is my second week since becoming a member at RISE and it feels like i’ve been there for ages with how welcoming everyone has been! I’ve never done anything like this before, but both trainers/coaches Barney and Sunny make you feel like you’re meant to be there. I would recommend to anyone and everyone because no matter your age, or experience, they work with you to help achieve what you want out of the training sessions they provide. I have been to a normal gym, but this one is way better! Everyday there is always something different, no same old boring routine. There’s always something new to learn, and always room to up skill and improve. I feel like i’m achieving more than I did in the normal gym and constantly improving myself in every session.

Fantastic experience: I've always wanted to try out boxing, and when I did I never wanted to go back, until Rise Training Centre opened. This place is not just a gym, but it is a community. The more seasoned members are always helping and motivating us beginners, so you never feel out of place. The owner and instructor, Barney Holland is a really such a pleasure to learn from, and he has worked to ensure the gym is a place where you can just be you and have a great time. The gym I'd always clean and ready for each class. If you're looking for a gym that offers boxing and kickboxing, with an instructor who is passionate and shares the culture of community, then Rise Training Centre is the place to be at.

Fantastic experience: RISE Training Centre is a truly fantastic group to be apart of. When I first started my fitness journey a few months ago, I had never completed any kind of boxing and was new to the whole idea. Barney was patient and thorough with all explanations of the classes, always willing to work on technique with you no matter how many times he needs to explain it to you (with me it took a lot to get certain moves). The classes were well thought out, challenging, always get the heart rate up and you always left feeling very sweaty and feeling fantastic. The members of RISE are all super welcoming, really nice and many laughs are had within the training sessions. No judgement or expectations are ever had within the groups, and if you are struggling with anything, ask one of your fellow members for a hand and they are willing to help explain. Barney is so passionate about this kind of training and you can understand why all of his classes have become so popular. RISE Training Centre is fantastic environment and if you are thinking of trying it, I highly recommend giving it a shot, you won’t regret it.
