    The easiest way for me to put it is that Virtus cares about its people . Which may sound awfully simple, but in reality, a lot of gym’s, businesses or big companies don’t care. The simpleness of genuine interactions goes a long way. The coaches ask questions, dig deeper into everyone else’s why and want to know the people who choose them. In every training session, the coaches provide meaningful value, whether this is through a conversation, or challenging clients, it all makes an impact. It’s all good and well for a business to say they are such and such or these are their values, but to actually commit to achieving those things takes hard work, time, listening and effort. Virtus takes the time to spread their knowledge and create positive experiences for sporting clubs and schools. Many people don’t like gyms, for many reasons, but Virtus doesn’t feel like a gym. It feels more like a place where people come to connect and socialize whilst moving their bodies in a way that feels good for them. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a community of wonderful people.

    I wanted to write something that captured how great the experience of being part of the Virtus community is. Tina managed to put it into words. "You're simply the best Better than all the rest Better than anyone Anyone I've ever met"

    So happy with my decision to choose Virtus as my first gym experience. Super welcoming environment, kid friendly, dogs to pat and excellent coaching. Always a good balance of getting stuff done and pushing yourself and having a laugh along the way. Cheers team Virtus for bringing the good vibes.

    Virtus really is a place where good people do good things. After many years of trying and failing to find a gym that worked for me it is a joy to have discovered this place. Coaching excellence, community spirit, inclusivity, buckets of patience and kindness. It is not only the best gym I have ever experienced but most definitely the place for people who don't think gyms are for them but want to improve themselves. For me the accountability of group training has been perfect - helped by the greatness and openness of the other members. Virtus, and the people (and dogs) that make it, has kept my head above water and leading a better, healthier life both in and out of lockdowns this year. I am very grateful to have found Lachie and his team.

    Have been training here on and off since 2019. Whenever I am here however I make more progress and develop better habits when compared to a normal gym. They have helped me to hit many fitness goals whether it be loosing weight or hitting PRs. Highly recommend if you want to make a change in your life. Not to mention everyone is very friendly and there is an array of social events for everyone to get involved in.

    I recently joined Virtus and am obsessed!! All of the trainers and members have been so welcoming, and I have found myself there most days! I love that Virtus offers so much more than just a program/training, the recovery lounge and sauna have been amazing on days where I am tired or may not have much to give. I love that the trainers will modify exercises as needed for injuries or to meet you where you are on any given day with energy levels etc. Highly recommend!!!

    You won’t find a gym environment better than Virtus. In terms of performance and coaching, you’re training like (and amongst) the best athletes in the country. And in terms of vibes, you’ll be welcomed in to such an amazing group of people trying to better themselves and have fun. Massive part of my journey in health and fitness that has set me up for life

    I recently joined Virtus and have been really impressed. Lachy and the trainers are knowledgeable and supportive, always willing to offer alternative options, guidance, and motivation. The atmosphere is welcoming, family-friendly, and energizing - no uncomfortable vibes. I highly recommend Virtus to anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals in a positive and supportive environment.

    If you're looking for a gym in Mornington, go no further. Virtus is a place that will help you grow and be better as human.

    Virtus is the most “non-gym” gym. If you’re looking for a place that has: ✅ the best community ✅ evidence based coaching ✅ results / goals based programming ✅ customised and tailor made programs ✅ on site allied health, and ✅ fantastic doggos Then come here. Lachy and the gang are fantastic human beings.

    Virtus Gym is absolutely amazing! It's not just a place to work out, but a community that welcomes everyone with open arms. The inclusive vibe is incredible, making you feel like you belong from day one. The staff at Virtus are the best! They're super friendly and always ready to help. Their knowledge and expertise are top-notch, and they make sure you have all the guidance and support you need to reach your fitness goals. But what really sets Virtus apart is their awesome events and challenges. From golf days to social gatherings, there's always something exciting happening. They even have monthly objectives to keep you motivated and engaged. It's not just about the workouts, it's about having fun and building connections with fellow members. In a nutshell, Virtus Gym is the place to be if you want a welcoming community, friendly staff, and a wide range of events and challenges to keep you motivated. It's more than just a gym, it's a place where you can thrive and have a blast on your fitness journey.

    I've been a member at Virtus Gym for a few months now, and I can't speak highly enough about this Gym. The people here are simply fantastic. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable, positive, and always ready to offer guidance and support in achieving my goals. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned athlete, they make you feel right at home. What truly sets Virtus apart is their unwavering focus on overall fitness. It's not just about lifting weights or running; it's about achieving a well-rounded, healthy lifestyle. The variety of classes they offer, from strength training to additional yoga and other specialist classes keeps things exciting and ensures you keep growing. But what truly makes Virtus special is the vibe. The atmosphere here is so cool and positive. There's a genuine sense of community among members, and everyone encourages each other. It's not just a gym; it's a place where you can challenge yourself and grow while having a blast doing it. I can confidently say that Virtus Gym feels like home. If you're looking for a gym that's all about great people, health, fitness, and an amazing vibe, look no further. Virtus is where you want to be!

    Being able to train at Virtus has been incredible, there is non stop support and smiles. I’ve never felt comfortable going to the gym, until Virtus, couldn’t recommend joining more <3

  • 5/5 Gemma H. 7 months ago on Google
    Virtus is so much more than a gym. It’s a community, a place to be accepted & feel at home, a place to achieve cool things. I bring my kids when I need to, I get snuggles with Banksy and am supported with exceptional programming and coaches. So glad I found Virtus.

  • 5/5 Annette W. 6 months ago on Google
    Virtus is the best gym experience I've ever had, and I've been to a few. The coaches are always available to help and they make sure I'm doing the program correctly. The best part of Virtus is the community 😍 whether it's for fun sessions, hugs on hard days, lots of laughs or encouragement when you are trying to do a pb. There's always someone there 🥰 The reason I'm here is very selfish. I want to not only live a long life but a healthy and mobile one. Being able to actively do what I can to age well makes me happy 😊

    Lachy and the team at Virtus are absolute legends! We enjoy every interaction with them. The community that Virtus has built over the years is one to be admired. Top class business and a top class team. Keep it up team! Can’t wait to see what the future of Virtus looks like!

    Virtus is the gym family you never knew you needed! Beautiful community, top tier trainers, baby friendly, dog friendly & all round best place to be 💫

  • 5/5 Patrick D. 1 year ago on Google
    Virtus provides great support to helping improve members at their specific level and needs. The venue and management takes an approach that builds a community with mutual support, I cannot commend the staff/trainers highly enough for their help, care and attention. I had never been a gym member before and post Covid lockdowns, I noted that I needed to do something for my physical and mental health. The introduction, welcoming and registration process was straightforward and clear. The venue provides for various services (nutrition, physio) and offers social events with a clear intent to help build a better being for all aspects. I am very impressed with the flexibility put to the member as individuals with each their own circumstances and with the support program, it has really helped me feel welcome and return.

  • 5/5 Jess C. 1 year ago on Google
    The place to be! First time I've ever been successful with going to the gym consistently for a long period of time. This is credit to everyone at Virtus, staff and members. The environment at Virtus is the best I've ever come across, and I've met some awesome people. Mitch's programming is specific to what i need and helps me tick my boxes. Couldn't give you a better recommendation than Virtus!!!

    10/10 recommend - a great setup, but more importantly a great crew! Having trained group sessions coached by Lachie, Tyler, & Mitch the high calibre of the Virtus team is upheld across the board - they’re super approachable, know their stuff & take the time to help each individual learn & level up. BIG cheers legends!

    Being able to train post pregnancy (twice now!) with Virtus has been extremely important to my health and well being. Being surrounded my knowledgeable, encouraging and motivating Coaches has certainly helped me get stay on track with my fitness. Absolutely stoked to be able to train in a family friendly environment, where they make me (& my children) feel welcome.

    Always look forward to my weekly Virtus visit! A fantastic facility filled with even better people; every staff member is friendly and approachable and never fail to make everyone feel welcome. They've worked incredibly hard to create a supportive environment which makes training at any time of day that much more enjoyable.

    Joining this gym has been one of the best decisions I've made for my mental and physical health. The gym is well-equipped, and Lachy is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. From tailoring workouts to my needs, the ice bath, sauna and all the equipment, there's something for everyone here. The atmosphere is motivating and friendly. I've seen progress in my strength and endurance since joining, and I credit it to the fantastic environment this gym provides. Highly recommend!

    Virtus Gym is the best place to help achieve your fitness goals and be apart of such an incredible community. The coaches are supportive, committed and always looking after your needs. It’s a great environment to achieve your physical goals, with a great group of people.

  • 5/5 Brianny B. 6 months ago on Google • 1 review
    I joined Virtus 18 months ago for my rehab after a knee reconstruction and haven’t left! The super supportive and very experienced trainers guided me through my rehab, helped me transition back into sport, and pushed me to set and smash new goals I never dreamed of achieving. Virtus brings together and supports everyone, from high level athletes to people like myself who just want to live a healthy and balanced life. I’ve always been skeptical about gyms and they’ve never stuck for me, but the community feel and encouragement from staff and other members really sets Virtus apart from other gyms. The impact it’s had on my mental and physical health is unmatched.
