The Original Gym

General information

The Original Gym offers a unique approach to athletic and movement development, through personal training and small group formats - both of which offer individualised programming and detailed, technical coaching.

Our goal in training you is to develop superior athletic ability and musculoskeletal health by improving your strength, mobility, and overall ability to move. Our Strength & Movement small group series consists of a number of sessions, each with a different focus, that can be taken individually or in combination depending on your needs. Classes include Muscle Up, Lift, Jump! and Movement & Mobility.

Class sizes are limited to 6 people to ensure that you receive a high level of coaching and attention in sessions, and get to know and train with a group of like-minded individuals all working together towards the same goals!

"Muscle Up" is the name of our upper-body strength oriented class. Our upper body strength work is based on fundamental gymnastics strength exercises, coupled with mobility and skill elements designed to make you strong, resilient and flexible.

"Lift, Jump" is the class where we develop lower-body ability. The first goal is to establish a baseline ability in a movement fundamental to human movement - squatting. From there we develop further abilities such as one-legged squatting, explosive jumping ability and more. We use a combination of mobility and strength work, using our bodies, kettlebells, barbells and various boxes and steps. These are the fundamentals of modern athletic training.

"Movement & Mobility": The "weakest link" in many people's movement is their lack of mobility. In this class we focus on improving the mobility of the hips, shoulders and spine, and work on improving our ability to move, with a view to becoming more agile and capable.
