  • Small Group Training

Find What Fits

“You don’t need to do it all at once to make a shift.”

Kind words from women walking this path with me…

“The best thing about Mel is that she never fails to chase you up with a text - very handy for days when you just might not feel like exercising! Mel is also amazing at mixing things up - I don’t think I have ever had any two classes the same. Thanks Mel, and keep up the fab work!”
— Aimee- BFitU Client
“Mel is engaging, motivating and her classes are varied and challenging. I usually struggle to keep momentum with attending workout classes, but Mel’s BoxFit class is different. I love the fact that it’s all ladies working towards the same goal, different levels of fitness and smaller classes for more personalised sessions. Highly recommend.”
— Kathy- BFitU Client
“BeneFit You is fantastic! As someone who isn’t a huge fan of exercise & often finds it hard to stick to a routine, this place is a game-changer. The small, women-only sessions create such a supportive and inclusive atmosphere - there’s no feeling of being judged at all. I’ve been attending the small group sessions, and they are brillant. Each 30-minute workout is different, challenging, and surprisingly addictive! Mel, the trainer, is excellent at keeping things varied and motivating you. The studio is welcoming, nothing like a typical intimidating gym. It feels private and secure. I’ve actually noticed a difference in my fitness levels and even seen changes I didn’t think were possible! If you’re looking for a supportive effective, and fun way to get fit, especially if you prefer a women-only environment and small group training, I highly recommend BeneFItyou. It’s a great way to prioritise yourself - because you’re worth it!”

You don’t need to do more — you just need a better way that works for you.

I see you. You’re juggling work, family, emotions, expectations — and still trying to prioritise your health and wellbeing in the middle of it all. It’s no small thing, and you’re not alone.

Let’s find what works for you — together.
