Can't recommend Movement Enhanced enough!! Since joining almost 2 months ago I already feel so much stronger and my mobility is increasing everyday. Ben and the team are so knowledgeable and supportive and have been so patient and helpful with injuries that have previously held me back. Love the focus on technique! ME honestly has the best environment and everyone is so friendly. Can't get enough!

I highly recommend Ben Thompson and his team at Movement Enhanced. Ben has created a personable group environment, where community members from all walks of life, become lifelong friends. The coaches foster this same mentality with a huge focus on correct technique and the results show for themselves. 5 stars.

I have a strong liking for surf boat rowing and competing against other likeminded people. Training to be the best version of myself as a competitor was a lonely journey, until around two years ago when I was welcomed into the Movement Enhanced community. It was then that I realised, if you have the right people around you, you can reach your full potential. ME is exactly the place I need to be, it’s where I’ve been able to become the very best version of myself in not only my training but also in competition. It’s a community who are consistently pushing the barriers, never settling and

I was skating past the gym early evening and a creep followed beside me in his car for 100m. A Movement Enhanced PT came out and checked on me and the creep drove away. That PT and another lady PT insisted I stay with them and offered to drive me to my destination. I am very grateful for their kindness and I believe the gym is an empowering and safe place. I have lived in the area for over a year, never had an instance like this happen, but glad to know Movement Enhanced is on neighbourhood watch and the staff there will go an extra mile for you literally.

There is no doubt about it, Movement Enhanced is the BEST group fitness gym in Brisbane! With a great bunch of people to work out with and extremely knowledgeable staff, it was incredible to see the progression and improvements I made. The crew focus on quality over quantity and it truly works. The programmed workouts are structured well in advance and are organised to ensure everyone make long term gains (over short term wins). The gym is always clean and this is just one demonstrator of Ben and the crews strong work ethic and dedication to making an incredible environment to work out in.

This gym is absolutely brilliant! I can't recommend it highly enough.
The training program provides a comprehensive range of exercises to ensure you develop not just functional strength, but mobility, flexibility, and injury prevention too. The trainers are excellent - they ensure that you're using the proper form in a calm, patient, friendly… manner. Plus, they're more than happy to answer any questions that you have. Furthermore, the small group classes provide a more personalised training experience so you receive tailored advice and attention.
The other great strength of this gym is

I love everything about Movement Enhanced. I've never been a fan of gyms and prefer to exercise and do activities outdoors, but with a need to build strength and fix my ol' back problems (I'm in my 30's you see), I researched gyms in my new hood and came across ME. From day 1, Ben and the team couldn't have been more friendly or helpful. They welcomed me like family and support me to achieve my goals. The community they have built and chilled out atmosphere is amazing, and for the first time in my life I look forward to going to the gym. Plus there was no awkward 'newbie' phase and there are no

Highly recommend this gym. DO NOT hesitate to try it out. I get super anxious about starting at a new gym and I’ve never felt more welcomed and supported at any other gym. Not only are the trainers super friendly and welcoming, they have created a whole culture of friendly and helpful members who all want to see each other succeed. I definitely… wouldn’t have left this gym if I didn’t move out of town! Every session is full of education and the trainers are very focused on technique and form to make sure you get the most out of every session and don’t end up injured

Top notch gym. The facility and gear are second to none, the programs Ben has developed seem to work so well in allowing for sustainable progression ....and the trainers actually know their stuff.
If you want to train barbell strength with a solid mobility and cardio aspect with a welcoming and supportive bunch of people - this is the spot.

Ben & the coaches go above and beyond for each and every person who goes to Movement Enhanced and really help in reaching your personal fitness goals. When I joined the gym at the start of this year, I was really looking for a big sense of community & was super nervous attending for the first time. That nervousness went away as soon as I stepped in the gym because everyone made me feel so welcomed and included. There’s nothing better than achieving your goals in a space surrounded by people who make you feel comfortable & cheer you on while you hit new PB’s!

Ben came highly recommended and he didn’t disappoint. ME runs a well planned strength and conditioning program delivered by experienced coaches in an awesome facility. The small group training affords you enough 1 on 1 attention from coaches but at a fraction of the cost of personal training, with the added benefit of accountability and motivation from the group. Programming is individual to you and prescribed relative to your current strength/capacity.

Extremely knowledgable staff, fantastic facility and friendly, like-minded members.
For more than two years I have looked forward to every session at Movement Enhanced. I also love the flexibility and personal… approach of the semi-private style training, these sessions give me a personal trainer at an affordable rate in an immensely motivating group environment.
Excellent, 5 stars, would lift at this location again.
