I absolutely love working out at BFT Cheltenham! After my previous F45 studio closed down, I was worried that I wouldn’t find a replacement that matched its level of intensity and quality. However, BFT has completely exceeded my expectations. First of all, Coach Lee and his team are absolutely amazing! They are knowledgeable, supportive and always willing to help me to make sure I’m performing exercises correctly. Not only do they make exercising fun, they always motivate me to push harder – I appreciate that they take the time to get to know your workout goals, strengths and weaknesses with regular check-ins. The studio itself is spacious, well-equipped and always impeccably clean and I’ve been impressed by the variety of classes offered. One of the things I appreciate the most about BFT Cheltenham is the sense of community that they cultivate. They are all about uplifting each other, pushing one another outside of our comfort zones and celebrating each other’s progress. It’s a great group of people to work out with every day. Overall, I am truly grateful to have found BFT Cheltenham and highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch fitness studio. Sophie

In the past, I have found it difficult to stick with a gym / fitness routine- life often gets in the way and it's easy to neglect. BFT Cheltenham takes all the guess work and pressure out of maintaining a solid and tough workout! The programs work to increase cardio fitness and strength through increasing stages over the weeks, and in-house challenges help motivation when waking to a cold Melbourne morning. I have found the coaches to be friendly, knowledgeable and motivating, yet take into consideration limitations and /or injuries which I think is just as important, if not more so. The members are friendly and welcoming- everyone is encouraged by one another along the way. Overall, I've found the environment to be non-confrontational or judgmental which I think is a huge plus for those who have not stuck to a regular fitness regime in the past. *****

After much research I joined BFT Cheltenham in January 2023. It was right before the start of one of there 8 Week Programs. I met Lee who was kind enough to show me around and give me a thorough rundown on how things worked. My fitness Journey kicked off that weekend and I have never looked back. I am so glad that I started there. Lee and his team of Trainers are very qualified and amazing at what they do. Help is always on hand when you need it and if there is ever a doubt on your form or technique during the classes, one of the trainers is there to lend a hand. During the cardio classes they too are on hand to push you through. It’s a great community where everyone is friendly and welcoming. I cannot recommend BFT Cheltenham enough. It has become very much a part of my daily routine to attend a class everyday. Once you join you will understand why.

I can’t talk highly enough about BFT Cheltenham! I have been in gyms previously and never felt at home like I do at BFT Cheltenham. Lee and the team have been welcoming right from the moment I walked in for a trial. They are a team who motivate you but also educate you on having the right form and ensure that you are lifting right to avoid injuries which I really appreciate. The classes are always different and challenging which I love and being there for over 5 months I feel the fittest I have ever been and look forward to attending everyday! The people who I train with are all friendly, fun and non judgemental and that has led me to keep going everyday and feel held accountable. Thanks BFT Cheltenham for all you’ve done for me physically and mentally.

  • Rhiannon Stark

I was apprehensive about joining BFT as I have always heard group fitness isn’t the way to go. After hearing my sister rave about her experience at BFT I finally caved and joined. I love it! The atmosphere is amazing, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. I’m learning new things and have noticed a huge difference in my attitude towards training. The trainers know exactly what they’re doing and are there to help and ensure your form is on point! It doesn’t feel like group fitness, it’s more like a PT session with your friends. Lee & team are incredible and always pushing me to achieve. Every session feels like progress I’m now a BFT girl for life

  • nicole griffiths

Bodyfit Cheltenham is my home away from home, my happy place! The trainers are so attentive, super fun and quite frankly, if they can work with my poor coordinator and bad jokes, anyone can do this! They never miss a beat and know exactly how to get the most out of you - the results iv seen in just 3 months are remarkable! The scanners there are on a whole different level keeping me on track, and teach you its more than just a number on the scale. I never thought I'd be a morning person, but now genuinely get FOMO when I miss a class, BFT Cheltenham keep up the good work and thankyou for your patience with me!

  • Chantelle Vannitamby

I joined BFT after my local f45 studio closed down. I was anxious starting a new gym, however I felt welcomed even before I started by Lee and the team, by giving me encouragement and support beforehand. It took me a few sessions to find my groove but it’s been amazing! Lee and the trainers are super supportive, welcoming and genuinely care about you and reaching your goals. The studio is very cosy yet spacious, with heaps of parking. I’m glad to have quickly found a comfortable yet motivating place to keep up with my goals. Thanks so much BFT Cheltenham, you are the best!

I have been a member at numerous gyms and am an F45 convert to BFT. BFT is more focused on strength and technique in my opinion. Not only this but being a BFT member means after a month at one gym you can then go to other BFTs. Saying that, I have visited numerous gyms due to work and travel and can say that the management, members and space at Cheltenham is by far one of my favourites. Ra is approachable, knowledgeable and friendly and makes the whole experience so enjoyable, you will actually end up loving the gym which I never thought I’d say. 5 stars highly recommend.

  • K Spain

I have been going to BFT Cheltenham for about 3 months now and I absolutely love it there! There is a great range of classes from cardio to weights and the trainers are all super friendly and supportive during classes. There is a great vibe in the studio during the classes and the trainers help to push you past your comfort zones so you feel like you’re getting a really great work out. I have seen results in my body and it’s also been great for my mental health too. Highly recommend this studio!! If you have been thinking about joining, just do it! You will love it!

  • Erika Tretheway

I love BFT - the structure, format and equipment is top class. I've trained and taught at many gyms in my time, and I'd rate BFT as the best I've experienced. Much thought has gone into end user experience, and even the simplicity of the booking app makes me smile. Greeted every morn by the incredible team at Cheltenham, professional yet personable- what a way to start the day! If I'm lucky, I'll catch Ra grooving to the beats through the class which takes my mind off the the assault bike for just a moment ;)

  • Kanchana Hettiarachchi

BFT, Chelthanham was recommended by my colleagues in the office. When I first started there, I knew nothing about this kind of physical training. I now adore it. Excellently organised training sessions, incredibly inspiring and highly engaging instructors, and a fantastic atmosphere due to the outstanding group of people. They run several sessions throughout the day, so there's a lot of flexibility. To anyone searching for a serious yet enjoyable workout, I highly recommend BFT, Chelthanham.

  • Ashley Badcock

Facilities are great. Coach Ra (-scal) is an asset to the gym and knows the program so well, though I think she sometimes wants to see me leave in a body bag . Appreciate Coach Jack telling me he loves me …. Coach Breeza who will never like me as much as Jo, Coach Jordan has great form insights and Coach Max who I think I must have crossed in another life who also likes to see me lifeless after 50 mins. All the ingredients are here to get great results!

  • Drew Woods

I've never been a gym person but joined at the start of 8 week challenge and I've exceeded my own expectations. The community in the gym is fun and encouraging and the staff have pushed me beyond what I thought I could do. Im stronger, leaner and motivated to get results. BFT mornings are now my routine and I feel strong and energised as afterwards. Highly recommend joining you won't regret it. Lee, Zoe & the team...you rock

  • Findlay Ferguson

Always hated the idea of group classes and going to gym to exercise, but these guys have completely changed my view on that. The program is designed brilliantly so you just rock up and smash out the session without thinking, and the targets are designed for you specifically. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and it has helped me to lose a bunch of weight and work towards a well rounded level of fitness.

  • Brooke Woods

I could not recommend BFT Cheltenham more highly. The Trainers take the time to get to know you, support you and push you to do your best and then some. Everything is covered with the variety & structure of the classes - no 2 days are ever the same and they always provide a great challenge. The competitive person in me LOVES the heart rate targets for each exercise too. Well done Lee, Zoe and the team!

  • Jess Peron

I absolutely love everything about BFT Cheltenham! The trainers all really know what they are doing and are legends at pushing you past your own limitations, being your personal hype agents and of course how can I forget the dad jokes!! The other members are super friendly and easy to get along with. Cliquey? I Don’t know her! My absolute happy place if I could give 10 stars I would!

  • Jade Denehey

Absolutely love everything about BodyFit gym in Cheltenham.

  • Chris Bunney

The best place I have ever trained at. Lee and his team have created a high performance culture which is also nurturing and supportive to all body shapes and fitness levels. It has been the best rehab for several old injuries over the last 4 months. It feels so good to be strong and fit again and to be part of a club like environment where everyone helps each other.

  • Josh Gates

I recently moved to the area and was lacking motivation. The team at Cheltenham BFT made me feel more than welcome, and now I'm loving my morning workouts. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to join or anyone currently looking for a change. The professional trainers have created a fantastic community that's truly inspiring! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • Georgia Tyas

Juggling kids, working full-time and exercising is hardwork but BFT Cheltenham has made it so much easier with their workout schedule. The facility is super clean, Lee and the coaches are highly engaging and motivating. They strike a perfect balance between enjoying your training whilst pushing yourself to the limit.

  • Julie Nisbet

Awesome gym! The coaches care about every client & know if there is fuel left in your tank to push you further/heavier/faster. They concentrate highly on technique to ensure you're getting the most from each workout. Made to feel welcome & a great vibe each and every time you enter the studio. Highly recommend!
