Met with Lauren at Beaton Park Leisure Centre to kick off an individual exercise plan. She listened carefully to my goals and designed a program that fits my schedule around Gwynneville life. The sessions feel practical, not overwhelming, and I’m already seeing small wins after a few weeks.
Really grateful for Lauren’s guidance. Her exercise prescription is clear and tailored to my fitness level. The way she explains each move makes me confident I’m doing the right thing for my knee and back. Highly recommend for anyone around Wollongong who needs a sensible plan.
I was getting stuck in a rut with my gym routine in Gwynneville, but Lauren helped me design a program that actually works with my busy mornings. The health education on exercise she provided has stuck with me, and I feel more energetic during the day.
Lauren took the time to perform a thorough fitness assessment and then built a practical plan I could follow at Beaton Park. It’s not gimmicks—just solid guidance that suits my lifestyle in the Illawarra. I’m surprised at how quickly I’m progressing.
As someone new to exercise, I was nervous about injuries. Lauren’s approach at the Gwynneville centre felt safe and supportive. She gave me exercises I could do at home and explained why each one matters. I leave each session feeling capable and motivated.
Lauren helped me set realistic goals and then kept me accountable. The program design is simple to follow and fits my schedule around work in the Beaton Park area. If you want practical exercise advice from a pro, she’s the person.
I’d struggled with motivation until I met Lauren. Her physical activity counseling made a big difference—she helped me see how small tweaks add up. The Beaton Park sessions feel welcoming and professional, exactly what I needed in Gwynneville.
