Viking Training - Glen Waverley (VIC)

Stephen Lee-Burman Vanessa is a great pilates coach and her studio has all the equipment needed. Ive seem significant improvements over the last 12 months in my core strength and general wellbeing which has helped me with my hiking, being able to carry heavier loads and get more enjoyment from hiking and from day to day activities.

Rachael Mooney Super positive experience with Stretch Lab! Only completed my first session, but felt like I’ve already gotten a lot of value. Keen to see the progress!

m pusch Completed my first “foundation” session last night & it was the most enjoyable experience! I have never tried reformer pilates before & the instructor was so lovely, patient & informative during the session showing us all the basic moves! Can’t wait to start my weekly classes at Studio Form!

vinal chandra This training facility is exceptional. Equipment is well maintained despite its age. Its not about the aesthetics as some people may be inclined towards. However they are functional, safe and there to practice skills. Also the customer service is friendly and informative. In terms of the coaching, I see a high level of experience especially with the competative side of gymnastics, ALP (WAG and MAG) and Gymstar. The patience, dedication, discipline, encouragment, and humanistic approach towards the students to achieve the best version of themselves in their artistry. I have a good understanding of human physiology, kinesiology, biomechenics, and biochemistry so I can comment on some of aspects barney styles. I have seen coaches at the facility apply the principles of training towards their athletes by ensuring good form in their skills, applying strength and conditioning methodology for structural integrity to ensure injury prevention. There has been energy systems training to ensure a balance between cardio, explosiveness, and sustained intensive activities. All these are done meticulously and without fancy equipment that are in high performance gymnasiums. In terms of biomechenics there is clear understanding of physics in applying force, and momentum for follow-ups and skills on various apparatus, important skills to have for various reasons but importantly to manage fatigue thus preventing injury and prolong an athletes career. In terms of community I have observed, a cohesion between athletes parents, and a sense of being welcomed and being part of the team. They also have payment plans, second hand uniforms, and parent portal app. I have taken my child to bigger clubs, its a good starting point however, I wished I had started here first, better coaching and more fun for my child. Like I mentioned this may not be an elite level, high performance facility, where there is an intervention for every minutiae, or nutritional adjustments. Like any sport this present day where people chase the best of the best, cough out significant amount of money to achieve the last 1 % where the 99% of work was not done. That 80 to 90% is crucial to the foundation of an athlete and their future careers this gradual process builds physical and most importantly psychological resilience to prevent bigger issues or career ending outcomes. The case in point is places like wyndham city gymnastics builds up the 80 to 90 percent or more which I cannot stress how crucial it is, so your child, loved one can build this foundation and excell in their careers as a gymnast. Give this facility a try and see for yourself.
