    F45 sessions are amazing. Gruelling but effective. The trainers are always there guiding you at each step from correcting your form, posture, to motivate & make you laugh!! When you workout in teams you uplift each others spirits and it is true - it is a community! Loving every bit of it and trust me you will get results!!!

    If you’re looking for a place to get fit and have fun while making friends, then F45 Ponsonby is perfect for you! When I moved to the area I didn’t know many people and the gym instantly became a place where I found connection and made friends. I genuinely look forward to my morning workouts and coffee after with the Ponsonby fam. Thanks for everything team, you’ve got me for life!!

    Such an inclusive, supportive and friendly gym. From trainers to fellow-gym’ers you are always greeted with a big smile. A place you make real friends and as a bonus get to work out. If you are looking for a gym that has a true community vibe, this is it!

    Love F45 Ponsonby! Motivating coaches & workouts, that keeps working out fresh & fun. For me it’s the only thing I’ve stuck to in years which speaks volumes for what they’ve got going on there!

    World class workouts with world class trainers! F45 Ponsonby is more than just a gym. I love the fact that you can be at any level in your fitness journey and still “fit in”. You could be a newbie or a pro athlete and it suits everybody. The coaches are very supportive and will guide you in the right way. More than a gym it’s a wonderful community. My day is incomplete unless I go in and see all the familiar faces and walk out all sweaty!

    I have to say, I never leave reviews .. but F45 Ponsonby is too awesome not to. I had been tossing up between a couple of gyms when I started and am so glad I chose these guys! Right from my first session the trainers have all been so amazing, friendly and welcoming. And the team vibe and atmosphere is so much fun! Thanks guys, you rock! 😎

    The best gym I’ve ever been to! Every other gym I’ve tried in the past, I’ve never been able to see out my goals and stick through it. I’ve been going to F45 Ponsonby for over a year now, and I’m loving it. The sense of community and support that’s been fostered by Steve and all the trainers keep us motivated and happy. I look forward to every workout!

    Hands down the best gym I've ever been a member of - I joined two years ago now, and I've never looked back. Like a lot of my friends, I've been a member of a gym, paying a subscription, for almost all of my adult life. They were fine - I got out what I put in - the challenge was that I wasn't always that motivated to put a lot in (or even go in the first place!), and definitely didn't really push myself. With F45 Ponsonby the experience is so different - I'm up and out the door, looking forward to a solid workout pretty much every week day. It's 45 minutes long exactly (I love that with my schedule!), it's different every day so I'm never bored, it's great fun and the results are real. The F45 Ponsonby community is one of the best parts of the experience - it's something that's become really important to me. It's a real buzz to work out with an awesome group of people. The trainers are fantastic - motivating, great fun, professional and super knowledgeable, always there to coach form, or help you get that bit further than you thought possible. One thing I'd say if you're thinking about joining. When I first looked at signing up I was put off a bit by the 'High Intensity' stuff...I wasn't sure I'd be able to keep up. It wasn't until I found out that friends of mine were already members and talked it through with them that I actually got started. I shouldn't have worried - Its such a welcoming place, I found my feet in no time. You set a pace that's right for you and grow from there...the coaching so good, and it's SO motivating when you hit your goals and start seeing the results.

    Absolutely love F45 Ponsonby. Have never been a part of a gym that makes me feel so motivated, to the point that I’m looking forward to my classes. The team are all awesome. They bring great energy, push you when you need the push, help with your form, are incredibly knowledgeable and are always happy to help. Have felt and seen my body change and I feel healthier, fitter and stronger. Couldn’t recommend enough ⭐️

    Julie and Steve lead a stellar team of passionate and skilled trainers that will put you through your paces in well organised group classes of functional training exercises. The daily routines are varied and present either a mix of cardio and resistance based training or dedicated session to either one of these types of workouts. For those that enjoy the challenge the gym also holds regular F45 Challenges that can help motivate and connect you with the other gym members you see every day. If you like group based workouts and enjoy functional training exercises, this is a great place to join. 💪

    F45 is a great workout, but you can find that at a lot of places. The main reason we go to Ponsonby are the people who motivate, care about you as a person and genuinely want to see you achieve your goals in all areas of your life and understand that the gym should be a part of that solution. Thankful for this place.

    F45 Ponsonby is not just a gym but a community! Everyone is friendly and welcoming! All the trainers are skilled and take time to ensure you do not injure yourself as well as help improve your technique. The workouts are balanced between strength and cardio and varied therefore unlikely you will ever get bored. It's a place for all no matter where you are in your workout journey!

    I freaking love this place! Started massively overweight and weak but the trainers were super lovely and encouraging. The vibe of the place is great too. The workouts take away the need to think, you’re literally told what to do and for how long. If you’re thinking about starting go on a Tuesday, you won’t regret it.

    F45 Ponsonby is an excellent gym where you can discover your rhythm, set and reach your goals. Within a few weeks, you'll observe noticeable strength improvements. The sessions are incredible, painfully challenging on some days. The trainers are fantastic, highly knowledgeable, and ever-present to provide assistance.

    Visiting from Wigram F45 Chch, I attended the Gemini class, Thursday at Ponsonby with my daughter. Dante and Rajiv were the coaches who were amazing. Great team vibe, great music and a great set up. If you’re thinking of joining F45 this place is great, the coaches are super helpful.

    Have been working out at F45 for a few months now and I absolutely love it! Since I am someone who gets bored doing the same workouts everyday F45 is perfect as the workouts are always different and sooooo fun! Great place to stay fit and make new friends! Coach Rajiv is so good at his job, it’s like having your own personal trainer and the he is always available to discuss any queries that you may have! Every body is different and he understands that and will help you through your journey, whatever it may be. Totally recommend it!

    Visiting Auckland from London and decided to drop in for a morning session with my Wife. Was impressed with how easy it was to sign up and the class was super tough but so good! Felt great after - will be back before we leave for sure! Thanks to Steve for a great class

  • 5/5 Ashlyn H. 1 year ago on Google
    I was a bit hesitant to join after 6 months off exercise with an meniscus tear. The trainers have been so supportive and have helped me get my strength back. Stoked with my progress so far! The owner and trainers go above and beyond to create this awesome motivating/positive culture. Best F45 I have been to by far!

  • 5/5 Tiegan L. 1 year ago on Google
    I have loved going to F45! The team have been awesome and always push me to my full potential. I feel like they really understand me and what my body can achieve. They are great at coming around and increasing my weights when they know I can do better! I feel healthier, am stronger, and have noticed positive results in my body and energy levels from week 1! I have had no regrets since signing up 6 months ago.

    Such a great vibe, awesome trainers, lots of ventilation and never had an issue with finding a park. This place is awesome! Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Fiona P. 1 year ago on Google
    The team at F45 Ponsonby are amazing! Friendly and supportive trainers who create good vibes. I was visiting from Wellington (I go to F45 Wellington East) and they let me join a few of their sessions during my stay in Auckland which was amazing and I am so grateful I got to keep training! I highly recommend this studio to anyone thinking about giving F45 a go. Thanks so much to the trainers at F45 Ponsonby for making me feel so welcome 🙏🏽

    I started doing outdoor classes with F45 Ponsonby during Lockdown probably more out of boredom and had convinced myself I wasn’t fit or coordinated enough to keep it up when classes moved back indoors. Yet a year and a half later I’m still here, attending most days and feeling better physically than probably ever before. And that is all down to studio manager Steve and his team who were so patient with me in the beginning and continue to push me to get better. They’ve also fostered a fantastic sense of community and thanks to F45 Ponsonby we have met some incredible people too. 12/10 would recommend!

    My normal studio at home is F45 MDR (Marina Del Rey, CA) and I absolutely love the support and camaraderie MDR provides. I was lucky enough to find that same environment at F45 Ponsonby, while in New Zealand for the World Cup. I recommend this studio to anyone - 1000% x Infinity. I had the privilege to work with 4 amazing coaches, who even in a short period of time, have taught me so much. I thank the entire Ponsonby Team for welcoming me in, especially at 5:10am in the morning. Best wishes to the studio. Mahalo 🤙🏽🥰

  • 5/5 Bojana A. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Nicole M. 1 year ago on Google
    The Ponsonby F45 studio is great. Really encouraging trainers who are all so lovely and help push you when they know you can do more. Also it's a nice big studio with lots of space, which is always a bonus. Would definitely recommend joining up.

  • 5/5 Anchal T. 1 year ago on Google
    F45 Ponsonby is one the best work out place I have ever been too. The trainers are absolutely amazing. Workout with fun and motivation is the best thing about this place. Thank you Steve for being so helpful all the time.

  • 5/5 Dylan P. 1 year ago on Google
    I was skeptical of F45 at first, group fitness classes are not really my thing. But Steve and the rest of the team at F45 Ponsonby are fantastic! The vibe is welcoming, friendly and motivational, regardless of your abilities and experience. They’ll have you shedding the pounds in no time, and before long, actually enjoying yourself, no mean feat!

  • 5/5 Mary van D. 10 months ago on Google
    I just wanted to let you know how impressed I was with your studio. Friendly, clean & tidy with a supportive vibe with great coaches who really focused on quality technique while pushing people. Great communication from when I first reached out too. I’ll be up again in September for work & will drop by again for morning classes. Much Love F45 Ponsonby.

  • 5/5 Laura A. 1 year ago on Google
    I broke my ankle couple of years ago, and it was hard for me to go back on track after COVID 19. It’s been two months since a join F45 Ponsonby and it’s been a life change for me. I feel happier, healthier, definitely more active and the mobility and strength of my body have improved 200%. On top of this I can wear cloths again that were sitting on my closet for this two years. I definitely highly recommend F45.

  • 5/5 Hannah M. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing team. Great bunch of humans who really care about you and your growth - not just physically but as a person. I felt so accepted and loved all the trainers. Great studio with heart.

  • 5/5 Julia R. 1 year ago on Google
    I love F45 Ponsonby! I already knew I loved F45 training but this gym is particularly awesome. Right from the first contact with prompt, personalised friendly communication via email, and then the onboarding on day 1 was super organised and well thought out. The whole atmosphere & culture of the gym is a fun and friendly place, the trainers seem to really enjoy what they do and are down to earth, approachable and super attentive - correcting technique etc.

  • 5/5 Original Source and S. 1 year ago on Google

Definitely give it a try!!
