We constantly adapt, refine and moderate our exercise prescription; this means we are able to look after everyone regardless of fitness level, injury or age. We’ve never met a body we couldn’t work with.

    Each week

      Lisa is super knowledgeable and really cares about everyone at Innervate! She helped me rehab two injuries and I'm back to enjoying running, swimming and playing tennis.
    • Avatar Leslie Scheetz ★★★★★ 4 weeks ago
      Fantastic gym - group training with a personal training approach. Lisa Brown treats all clients with the highest level of care and attention.
    • Avatar Alycia Ashcroft ★★★★★ 4 weeks ago
      I have been attending Innervate for almost a year now and Lisa is such an amazing trainer. It is the most consistent I have ever att3nded a gym, and I genuinely look forward to going. It's not like any other gym, and Lisa is an expert … More at what she does. She accommodates your needs and works with you to progress your goals. Lisa has created a wonderful inclusive community.
      Since attending I've build significant strength, I've reached personal bests, improved my posture, made so much progress on a knee i injury and made friends.
      Couldn't recommend Lisa and Innervate enough.

      I'm in my 60's and was letting the decay take hold. Joining Coogee Gym Innervate has been the best thing I could of done. Lisa has been fantastic, tailoring my sessions around a few medical issues. I've got my strength back … More (plus some!) and a new lease on life. 100% worth it.
    • Avatar Imogene Tudor ★★★★★ a month ago
      Lisa has supported me from a complete novice (who couldn’t even squat) to feeling strong and fit, training through my third pregnancy up to 3 days before my son’s birth. She is dedicated and caring, I am grateful for her investment in me. … More I look forward to continuing to push myself to be stronger!

      If you love anonymous and overcrowded classes where someone yells at you - don't come here.
      This gym is a revelation. Personalised training, but in a great group of really nice people.
      I trained with people of all backgrounds ages
      … More and abilities and it was seamless.
      Cannot recommend highly enough!
    • Avatar Kelina Bond ★★★★★ 5 months ago
      I hate gyms (too loud, too smelly, too many people glancing at their reflections in the ever-present mirrors) but this one is not your "normal" gym... Lisa's gym is a completely different universe! Lisa is highly qualified, … More pays attention to each one of us, keeps us on our toes and somehow manages to make our sessions fun (if someone would have told me a year ago that one day I would classify gym sessions as "fun", I would have never believed that person!). I love the classes and I especially love the community. Lisa is very passionate, really cares and creates an environment that is warm, welcoming and supportive. I definitely feel better in my body since I joined; I am more agile and I have more energy. I cannot recommend Lisa and her classes highly enough

      My whole life I have been a member of a large gym franchise. Nearly 12 months ago I had surgery on my leg/knee followed by months of physio, and I was recommended to try Lisa Brown @ Innervate. This was life changing for me. Lisa's … More knowledge and understanding of our bodies and how to train is extensive. The most significant thing for me is that Lisa constantly checks our technique in order to avoid injury and to push myself in a safe environment. The small classes mean that every person experiences her personalised attention. Get on the blower & give her call!!!
