I’ve been involved with Down Under for over 10 years and the owners Stephen and Samantha, truly care about their members and clients. Stephen is working on his doctorate and Sam continues to earn more and more training certificates. Overall the facility has a hometown feel and they know everyone’s name therefore their facility is the “Cheers” of the gym industry. They are honest, straight to the point and do not sugar coat what they say. If you’re looking for trainers who have years of experience - both book and practical as well as caring, stop on by and say hi. 💪

What a great gym. Very clean and great staff. I feel very comfortable walking in and never feel like I am being judged when I am working out. The trainers are the best ever. They know how to push you to get results without pushing too hard. I highly recommend this facility and it's trainers!

Sam and Stephen have been in the sports and fitness industry for over 40 combined years. Their knowledge and love of the industry is obvious from the rime you walk in to the time you walk out (sometimes crawl - depending on the workout). They consider their facility the “Cheers” of gyms - they know everyone’s name. With the help of friends and family they built their new facility themselves. As painstaking as that is - they have put a lot of sweat love and tears in to where they work and their members workout of. Overall, stop on by and give their place a try. And yes, I wrote this ftom a third person perspective, lol. #getyourgymon 💪
