  • "These classes are so much fun and such a good workout, we have a good laugh too."

    I joined Andreas BoxFit class as a part of my post partum fitness journey. I was nervous as hell as I'd never boxed before but this class has quickly become the class I most look forward too. Andreas patience and support and attention to detail has refined my technique and provided me with confidence. These classes are so much fun and such a good workout, we have a good laugh too. I highly recommend Andrea and this class.

  • "Everyone loves going [to pilates] because of you"

    Well Miss Andrea, hats off to you because that 'vibe' in your pilates classes come from you. Everyone loves going because of you that it has such a nice feel (not to mention a killer pilates session!) You bring the lively, funny caring vibe back to us all.

    Grateful I am feeling stronger and healthier and lighter (8kg!) I am grateful for developing a great exercise mix which I'm loving adn the headspace to accept the ups and downs with so much support from you and working towards my goals. I am loving the group challenge and support and reminders from yourself, it gives me the motivation to stay on track and try a new approach.

  • "I cannot recommend Andrea enough!"

    I cannot recommend Andrea enough! Her BoxFit classes are an amazing combo of boxing and a full body workout that pushes you while also making it super fun and engaging. She is motivating and fun and makes sure everyone is comfortable no matter what their fitness level. Each session is packed with high energy cardio and strength that leaves me feeling so pumped! I leave every class feeling stronger, more confident and totally energised.

    Andrea is fabulous, great energy & I feel so much better after my weekly session of Pilates and my Group Training session.
