New Melbourne CBD gym aims to be the city’s ‘most exclusive personal training studio’

Promoting itself as “Melbourne’s first five-star training facility”, the newly opened Ashley Faithfull Training Studios is aiming to to provide a “condensed and personalised for Melbourne’s most exclusive clientele”.

Ashley Faithfull, founder, owner and namesake of the studio explains “I have been in the fitness industry for over 10 years, and have spent the last seven years training high profile clients and busy professionals. Together with some hugely experienced and knowledgeable trainers, I’m bringing a new level of personal training studios to Melbourne. 

“Ashley Faithfull Training Studios are specifically designed for busy professionals and people who want a personal and exclusive feel to their training experience.

“We offer three levels of training facility including a beautiful outdoor rooftop designed to give (exercisers) the space needed for a comfortable and private training session.”

Faithfull (pictured above) adds “I’ve trained people extremely accomplished in their professions ... this includes judges, lawyers and top executives. In their offices they are seen as being at the top, respected and veneered which is important to these people. If a junior sees them sweating it out at their local club, it takes away some of that power. Plus, they just don’t need their staff seeing them at their most vulnerable, which exercise can be for many”.

Located on Melbourne’s King Street, the 1880s building has been gutted, redesigned and equipped for contemporary exercise, with access via a concierge desk with 24-hour access to clientele and finger print technology to get into the studio.

Faithfull adds “the Concierge Desk was key to the studio design ... our clients don’t want the hassle of arranging their own diaries and this is where the studio can help. We arrange their massage or physio session, liaise with their office and get it all locked in so they only need to look to their calendar for what they are doing next, including exercising.”
