Im from the other side of the world, Europe, Germany I’ve been following Shawn for while and when it was time for me to start my fitness journey, I didn’t want to work with non other than Shawn! His guidance has been second to none! the education, the knowledge and experience as a personal trainer I’ve never seen before in anyone else. During the time that I have been working with Shawn, had some unfortunate events happen to me, thrown me off track but each time with communication I’ve had with Shawn, he had turned that around and put me back on track. I have never felt better about myself like this in years, thanks to Shawn’s expertise in his field. If you are sitting on the fence and reading this, I highly suggest to start with Shawn you will never look back. ~ Leila K

I’ve been training at Prestige Personalised Training for a while now, and I honestly can’t speak highly enough of the experience. From day one, the team made me feel welcomed, supported, and genuinely cared for. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and tailor every session to suit your goals, fitness level, and even mood that day. It’s not like any commercial gym – it’s private, professional, and has a real sense of community. The results I’ve seen both physically and mentally have been amazing. I feel stronger, more energised, and actually look forward to every session. If you’re someone who values quality coaching, a supportive environment, and real accountability, PrestigePT is the place to be. ~ Fiona

Our family relocated from Sydney a year ago and we have been searching for a professional gym and great vibe. Shawn and his trainers are excellent mentors/coaches for all levels of fitness. They tailor custom programs and monitor your goals and work collaboratively with you to achieve your targets. Everyone is friendly and there is plenty of variety with group classes at 5.30 pm each day. If you are looking for a boutique gym with customised training and top notch trainers, then I highly recommend it. Also, if you have an injury, they will work around it and help you strengthen those injury prone areas. And if you want to get help with nutrition, they are one stop shop. Try it. You will not be disappointed. ~ Caroline L

As a woman in her late 40's, Iwas having a really difficult time losing weight after a challenges with chronic faitgue and chronic pain. I reached out to Chondelle Bell who was amazing at designing a nutirition program that included foods I love. She set out a clear eating plan which really helped me to know what to eat, how much to eat and when to eat. She even gave me simple recipies that I could easily prep, heat and eat even on busy days. I love Chon's heart to love and serve. Not only is she great at helping with nurtition and exercise, what I really appreicate about Chonis her attention to caring for all of me, including mentally and emotional ly through her coaching. I highly recommend Chondelle, for anyone who want meal plans with food you love, ease to follow plans and heart felt love and support ~ Slap T

I've been to many gyms, but this one truly stands out! The atmosphere is always positive and motivating, making every workout session a pleasure. The personalised attention and tailored programs cater perfectly to my fitness goals. The app is a fantastic addition, making it easy to schedule sessions and track progress. A huge part of my positive experience is thanks to Shawn, my personal trainer. He is incredibly knowledgeable, motivating, and always customises each session to fit my needs and goals. Shawn's attention to detail and commitment have made my fitness journey enjoyable and engaging. If you're serious about your fitness journey, this gym and Shawn are the perfect combination. Highly recommend! ~ Bahar S

Shawn and the team at Prestige Personal Training have been fantastic! I train with Veronika, and the support has been incredible. The community is so friendly and welcoming. My goal is to drop a few kilos, build muscle, and tone up, and they’ve been amazing in helping me stay on track. They’ve not only supported me with my workouts but also provided a meal plan and connected me with a wonderful meal prep service, making healthy eating so much easier. I also love the Saturday beach walk meetups followed by coffee - it’s such a great way to stay active and connect with others. Their classes have been an amazing addition to my routine, and I couldn’t recommend them more! ~ Elle C

I’ve been training at Pretiage personalised training for about a month now, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best gyms I’ve experienced. My trainer, Shawn he creates a comfortable and welcoming environment, making it easy to discuss fitness goals and concerns especially understands women’s fitness needs for women over 50 going through lots of changes. The gym itself is impressively clean and fresh, which makes every workout more enjoyable. The quiet atmosphere is perfect for focusing on your routine without distractions. Plus, the machines are not only new but also outstanding in quality, providing a great variety for all types of workouts. Overall, I highly recommend PPT GYM for anyone looking for a clean, friendly, and well-equipped gym experience.

Shawn is very passionate about his gym coaching and makes my goals just as much his goals. Love the way he has tailored/personalised my gym program and eating plan by taking into account my current health issues and limitations. He has gone above and beyond by researching my issues and has recommended healthy, inexpensive ways for me to deal with them. He constantly motivates me and encourages me to keep going…..assures me that through consistency and perseverance , I will overcome all obstacles and reach my goal to lose weight , to be able to lead a more mobile and pain free daily life. Three months ago, I could barely do 1000 steps a day, and now, thanks to Shawn, I am up to 9000 steps a day. I trust Shawn fully and feel blessed to have him as my coach. Have no doubt that together we will kick goals ….he will have me feeling like 21 again , very soon😊 ~ Gianula K

Shawn was my trainer a few years ago when I was fairly new to gyms. I needed to lose some kg’s and generally improve my fitness after several years of inactivity. Shawn helped me tick off that goal easily in a few short months, but gave me so much more. Shawn’s enthusiasm and knowledge of all things fitness and nutrition are amazing, and I still use his techniques and advice today. These days you’ll find me in the CrossFit gym or running on the trails, and fitness and good nutrition are a core part of who I am. Much of this is down to Shawn’s training and his love of sharing his healthy lifestyle. Plus he’s a top bloke and funny as hell! One word to sum up Shawn….. ……..INSPIRATIONAL! ~ Chris D

Shawns' dedication and attention to detail around developing the most optimal training program, including meal plans tailored around my goals and busy schedule is second to none! Results matter to me: I have suffered from high blood pressure (BP) for a long time. But since being on this program for only a few weeks, I was ecstatic to see my BP return to normal after so many years. My body is telling me I am doing something right!!! I am lighter and fitter, have a better physique (but still in progress), but I know inside I am much healthier! So if you are serious about getting results and want someone to keep you accountable "all the way through your journey" no matter where you are (even on holiday!), you need to contact Shawn. Shawn is a true professional in his field, and I highly recommend Shawn to help you too achieve your goals! ~ Paul V

Shawn is an amazing trainer who I have trained with in person and online over the past 5 years. The thing that sets Shawn apart from other trainers is that he genuinely cares about his clients. He becomes invested in your journey. He is very knowledgeable and offers advice with not only training but nutrition and mental and spiritual health. He sees the whole person as an individual. He is constantly trying to learn more himself about training people male or female, athletes, people recovering from injuries, and people of all ages. Shawn is also great at keeping you accountable in a way that suits your personality. I look forward to my training sessions with him as they are fun and challenging. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to achieve their fitness, nutrition and life goals. Shawn is a fantastic trainer and an inspiring person! ~ Natalie P

If you're looking for the best personal trainer, look no further! I can't express how grateful I am for Shawn. He has truly been an inspiration to me. I never thought I could reach my fitness goals, but his support and encouragement have helped me realize my potential. The results speak for themselves, you can really see that his methods work, and my body is telling the story! Not only does he emphasize the importance of health and well being, but he also shares his extensive knowledge, making every session both informative and motivating. Thank you for believing in me and pushing me to be my best! ~ Pattaree J

Believe in Chondelle and trust her process. For anyone considering working with Chondelle, I hope my experience can provide some insight. I have been fortunate to be mentored by Chondelle through a public speaking and mindset club for the last 7-8 months. Following her guidance, methods and process has been truly transformative. What surprises me the most is the feedback I receive from my audience and colleagues. When people say "Wow, that was amazing! You smashed it!". I'm often left in disbelief, questioning, "Really? Did I?". But the results speak for themselves. Chondelle's encouragement and mentorship have helped me achieve far beyond my expectations. I always turn to her with gratitude because, without her process, this progress wouldn't have been possible. If you're thinking of working with Chondelle-believe in her, trust her process, put in your efforts and the results will come your way. Rupesh Chondelle's mentee ~ Rupesh D

Recently started working with Shawn. It's still early days, but am already seeing results. Shawn sees the whole you, and comes at you with a holistic plan, not just fitness. Have already got more energy during the week, am able to spend more time doing physical activities with the kids, and no longer feel my body is holding me back keeping up with them. This life transformation is world changing for me and my family. Looking forward to the continuation of this journey and thankful to get to work with Shawn. The facilities are fantastic, clean, organised, quiet, not overcrowded. The small community atmosphere is such a fresh change as well. ~ Leigh M

I can’t recommend it enough! The sense of community here is truly unmatched. From day one, I felt welcomed by both the staff and other members, which is rare in many gyms. The environment is friendly and inclusive, no matter your fitness level. The support from the trainers is outstanding. They genuinely care about your progress and are always available to answer questions, help with form, or give advice on nutrition and workout plans. Their passion for fitness and helping members achieve their goals really shines through. It feels less like a typical gym and more like a group of people working together to stay fit and healthy! ~ Ashley W

Been hesitant to post this as my journey has a way to go. Tipped the scales at 142 in may and was time to wake up to myself. Got to 138 in late June but still not disciplined enough so joined a gym and got a trainer. Approx 16weeks later I just weighed in at 115.7kgs and feel amazing. Thankyou so much Shawn Maftounian for your training efforts (Highly recommend this guy if you need a trainer, GoodLife mermaid waters)and thankyou to my amazing wifey for your support who has been on her own journey and smashing it. The household if fitter, stronger and healthier not to mention happier. #doitforyourself ~ Jason C

I believe PPT is more than just a gym, it’s a place where you actually feel motivated to show up. The space is always clean, never too crowded, and has everything you need without the usual gym chaos. But the best part? The people. Shawn and his team really take the time to understand your goals and help you every step of the way. It’s such a supportive and welcoming environment, and you never feel like just another member.

"I've been training at PPT for a few months now, and it has been a fantastic experience. The gym offers personalized exercise and dietary plans tailored to your needs. Shawn and the team are both professional and approachable, creating a welcoming and fun environment while focusing on helping you achieve your fitness goals. The workouts are always designed to challenge you and bring you closer to your targets with every session. I highly recommend PPT, especially for busy professionals or anyone with limited time to spare. ~ Ali

Just over a year ago, I had foot surgery, followed by another one six months later. As I was unable to do the usual amount of walking I did, I slowly gained weight - in the places I didn't want it. I have known Chondelle for some time, and was so amazed by her own personal transformation last year as well as her knowledge, that I decided now was the time to start feeling good about myself again. Chondelle has put together a Nutrition and Workout Plan (which includes a one on one personal training session every week and PPT's gym) that is perfect for me. I get to each so much food! And the delicious Herbalife products compliment the transformation plan I am on. Chondelle is dedicated to the process of helping me (and others), transform my body and to be healthy and active, while also providing me the time and tools so I can be more informed about how to regain my body confidence. I am excited! If you have been struggling with weight or how your body is looking, I highly recommend Chondelle at PPT. ~ Caroline G
