In addition to his qualifications in fitness, Noel is currently completing tertiary studies in psychology, and has completed additional training in wellness coaching and behaviour change. He has a special interest in the brain’s role in health behaviour and enjoys bringing the most up to date information to his clients as it relates to their needs and circumstances.

Adopting the Health at Every Size (HAES) philosophy, Noel empowers clients to work with their body rather than against it.  He utilises a functional approach to training, focussing on strength, mobility, and control, and fostering an awareness of how the body moves through space.

Noel aims to support clients to better articulate, understand, and achieve their individual health and fitness goals. He understands the complexity of daily life and the range of competing priorities clients may be juggling.  As such, he works collaboratively with clients to develop a plan that utilises their own unique strengths to overcome their own unique barriers.

Noel believes that change isn’t as simple as “using more willpower” or “just doing it”; instead, he adopts an additive approach that helps clients to gradually add positive experiences that culminate in sustainable change.  Ultimately, Noel aims to assist clients in equating movement with joy, and to find comfort and confidence in their own body.

Abraam commenced his sport and fitness journey at an early age with many challenges faced. Abraam aspired of becoming a soccer player and was determined to succeed. He would train in his room after school doing push ups and sit ups along with eating healthy, as he was an overweight child and knew that the first steps to achieve his dream was getting fit and losing weight. As he got older he began training at a gym whilst playing in a local soccer team, this gave him the confidence and motivation he needed.

Abraam’s body was challenged with patella tendinitis (knee injury) halting his soccer aspirations which made him decide to take his training more seriously. He sees his injury as a blessing as it made him learn the mechanics of the body. He realised he needed to stretch and strengthen certain muscles to overcome his knee injury.

Abraam realised his true passion for fitness through his challenges and now wants to share his knowledge to help others achieve their strength and conditioning or weight loss goals. Abraam believes in honesty and doing everything he can to help his clients, he is very friendly and likes to vary up his training to keep things interesting for you, as he believes that training should be challenging but also enjoyable.

As a personal trainer it is not hard to deduce that I love physical activity, sport and all activities where you’re moving. Working previously as an assistant account I, like most of you understand the daily grind of working in an office, and I realise that a monotonous routine can get you living life for all the wrong reasons.

Life for many people is not centred on their happiness and well being, but rather work, rent, and a mortgage the size of what they think they should be earning. In life we can all get incredibly disconnected with the things that matter most, and believe or not, but often our health and physical condition are a direct reflection of the deterioration of our happiness, satisfaction and fulfilment with life. It is easy to allow yourself to go down this path of mediocrity, but if your sick and tired of a sub-par, tiresome and unrewarding life, it’s time to get out of bed a little earlier, or get home a little later and start the change, and transform your life! I know what you’re thinking: ‘Change is hard’, but it doesn’t have to be, as a personal trainer it is my job and my pleasure to help anyone and everyone looking to make life something you look forward to rather than dread.

I aim for my training to not only be a physical workout, but also therapy for your mind. With me you’ll not only get a PT who amply grasps the concepts of training, but a professional who is your biggest supporter in your ongoing pursuit of all the changes you wish to make for a greater sense of happiness.

I can help you build your confidence, overcome your stress, improve your sleep and lose that weight. So you will be happier and feel better in your body.

In addition to his qualifications in fitness, Noel is currently completing tertiary studies in psychology, and has completed additional training in wellness coaching and behaviour change. He has a special interest in the brain’s role in health behaviour and enjoys bringing the most up to date information to his clients as it relates to their needs and circumstances.

Adopting the Health at Every Size (HAES) philosophy, Noel empowers clients to work with their body rather than against it.  He utilises a functional approach to training, focussing on strength, mobility, and control, and fostering an awareness of how the body moves through space.

Noel aims to support clients to better articulate, understand, and achieve their individual health and fitness goals. He understands the complexity of daily life and the range of competing priorities clients may be juggling.  As such, he works collaboratively with clients to develop a plan that utilises their own unique strengths to overcome their own unique barriers.

Noel believes that change isn’t as simple as “using more willpower” or “just doing it”; instead, he adopts an additive approach that helps clients to gradually add positive experiences that culminate in sustainable change.  Ultimately, Noel aims to assist clients in equating movement with joy, and to find comfort and confidence in their own body.

Abraam commenced his sport and fitness journey at an early age with many challenges faced. Abraam aspired of becoming a soccer player and was determined to succeed. He would train in his room after school doing push ups and sit ups along with eating healthy, as he was an overweight child and knew that the first steps to achieve his dream was getting fit and losing weight. As he got older he began training at a gym whilst playing in a local soccer team, this gave him the confidence and motivation he needed.

Abraam’s body was challenged with patella tendinitis (knee injury) halting his soccer aspirations which made him decide to take his training more seriously. He sees his injury as a blessing as it made him learn the mechanics of the body. He realised he needed to stretch and strengthen certain muscles to overcome his knee injury.

Abraam realised his true passion for fitness through his challenges and now wants to share his knowledge to help others achieve their strength and conditioning or weight loss goals. Abraam believes in honesty and doing everything he can to help his clients, he is very friendly and likes to vary up his training to keep things interesting for you, as he believes that training should be challenging but also enjoyable.

As a personal trainer it is not hard to deduce that I love physical activity, sport and all activities where you’re moving. Working previously as an assistant account I, like most of you understand the daily grind of working in an office, and I realise that a monotonous routine can get you living life for all the wrong reasons.

Life for many people is not centred on their happiness and well being, but rather work, rent, and a mortgage the size of what they think they should be earning. In life we can all get incredibly disconnected with the things that matter most, and believe or not, but often our health and physical condition are a direct reflection of the deterioration of our happiness, satisfaction and fulfilment with life. It is easy to allow yourself to go down this path of mediocrity, but if your sick and tired of a sub-par, tiresome and unrewarding life, it’s time to get out of bed a little earlier, or get home a little later and start the change, and transform your life! I know what you’re thinking: ‘Change is hard’, but it doesn’t have to be, as a personal trainer it is my job and my pleasure to help anyone and everyone looking to make life something you look forward to rather than dread.

I aim for my training to not only be a physical workout, but also therapy for your mind. With me you’ll not only get a PT who amply grasps the concepts of training, but a professional who is your biggest supporter in your ongoing pursuit of all the changes you wish to make for a greater sense of happiness.

I have experience in strength and conditioning, pre/post natal, boxing, kickboxing and circuit training. I specialise in habitual change, weight loss and Precision Nutrition Coaching.

Changing your habits & your body is hard, so keep it simple and remember: NEVER GIVE UP!

Hi guys my name is Daniel, my love for fitness started young from playing footy, cricket and BMX riding. When I turned 18 I found the gym and fell in love and haven’t looked back.
Doing my own research for 8 years and adding my official qualifications into the mix, I strongly believe I can help anyone to achieve any goal they may have, whether it is anything from general fitness to rehabilitation.

Please don’t hesitate to call/text or email with any questions or queries. It’s only a stupid question if you don’t ask.
