About Us

Wendy Ritchie
Wendy came to the Fitness Industry from a career in the corporate sector. Her interest and curiosity about all things fitness grew after she engaged a personal trainer to help her regain work/life balance while climbing the corporate ladder. Wendy, then having decided to make the change, formalised her education and gained a Certificate IV Personal Training. Enjoying gaining knowledge Wendy keeps herself up to date with current fitness research and development.

Wendy's drive, caring nature and self motivation are key factors in her success as a trainer. She guides and encourages her clients to achieve results with workouts that are challenging and goal orientated. Wendy's experience and skills allow her to quickly and accurately gauge clients abilities. Then with her support, those abilities are expanded and enhanced taking the client to a new level of well being and fitness.

Fitness Zone clients have enjoyed Wendy's sessions now for over 7 years. The loyal and varied clients fill her sessions Monday to Friday mornings from 6am to 11am making available spots limited.

Ian Gully
Cert IV Personal Trainer who likes to use boxing training and nutrition strategies to help get results for clients.

As someone who used gyms all my adult life, I found over time that I was often unhappy with any leisure centre or gymnasium I happened to use to do a workout. My mother's negative experience with the weight loss industry also caused me to be interested in weight loss and exercise. From this there remains a number of things that I stay mindful of to help provide a more satisfying service to our clients.

Coming from a non fitness related industry, I became a trainer 5 years ago and have worked here at Fitness Zone for just over 2 yrs. It took me some time to come to grips with the fairly unique format here of small group personal training in which widely ranging fitness levels are accommodated in the one group of up to 5 clients.

Seeing people come in with very different needs and goals remains an enjoyable part of the job here as I don't believe there's anyone who can't transform themselves with a bit of help.
