Feel Like Yourself Again.
You used to train. Then work and life got busy. We coach you back to it: small group and 1:1 personal training in Christchurch CBD, with a plan built for you and coaches who know your name.
Takes 60 seconds.
I started at The Body Consultants mid-year with the goal of losing weight, gaining confidence in my clothes, and being the best version of myself for my kids. Since then, I’ve lost 13kg and can now deadlift my own body weight. Read more
Five stars. I’ve really enjoyed the small group personal training sessions at The Body Consultants. The coaches are great, the sessions are well run, and there’s a really good crew of people who make it an enjoyable place to train. I’d highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get fitter, stronger, and feel more confident with their training.
Love my experience at TBC! Not only have I lost 10 kgs in 4 months. I’m actually building muscle. The TBC team are amazing and nothing like you will have experienced at a gym. Read more
Awesome love coming here. It is a great community of people holding one another accountable and supporting one another. Trainers are always super helpful and want to see you succeed and achieve whatever goal you have. Never felt judged and this is a space for all people to achieve their fitness goals.
Brilliant team and facility. The perfect balance of strength exercises and fitness classes to suit all levels. Super knowledgable and encouraging PTs. All great people and atmosphere! Highly recommend.

Four Steps. No Guesswork.
We don’t hand you a membership card and wish you luck. Here is exactly what happens from your first message.
- 1
Tell Us What You’re After
A 60-second enquiry: what you’re training for, how you’d like to train and how to reach you.
- 2
A Call, or Straight In
Got questions? Book a free 15-minute call. Ready to go? Book your 1:1 Kickstart session and skip the call.
- 3
Your Kickstart Session
One on one with a coach in the studio: your goals, training background and a movement screen, then a real training session.
- 4
Train, Coached Every Session
Your first 6 weeks build you into the programme. From there it’s long-term progress: stronger, moving better, feeling great.
You’re Capable of More Than Your Body’s Showing Right Now.
Work got busy, life filled up and the plan quietly fell over. Now the energy’s low, the sleep’s average and the body aches in places it didn’t used to.
You’ve done the commercial gym. You’ve tried the free online programme from the lounge floor. Neither stuck, because neither gave you a real plan or anyone who noticed whether you showed up.
Your willpower was never the problem. The strategy and the room were.

The Core 4.
Everything we do sits on four things. Get these right and the results take care of themselves.
Training
Great movement first, then weight. Programmed sessions that progress over time, so you get stronger without breaking down.
Nutrition
Simple, sustainable eating that fits your actual life. No meal-by-meal rules you’ll quit in a fortnight.
Mindset
The bit most gyms skip. We help you show up on the days you don’t feel like it.
Accountability
Someone notices whether you turn up. Coaches who know your name, your goals and how the body’s feeling that morning.
Outcomes, Not Access.
A commercial gym sells you a swipe card and a big class sells you a workout. We coach you to a result.

Questions.
Can I come and try a class?
We don’t do free class trials, because you deserve more than a generic session. You start with a free 15-minute call, or go straight to a 1:1 Kickstart session with a coach, where we cover your goals, run a movement screen and take you through a real training session.
How much does membership cost?
Small group personal training is $75 a week for 3 sessions or $99 a week unlimited. 1:1 personal training is $89 a week for one session, $159 for two and $210 for three. Hybrid, one 1:1 personal training session plus unlimited small group personal training, is $159 a week.
I have never trained before. Is that OK?
That’s more than OK. A coach takes you through an initial assessment to see where your fitness and movement are at, then recommends the best place to start, 1:1 personal training or small group personal training, based on your ability and your goals.
Do I need to be a certain level of fitness to join the groups?
No. There’s no minimum, but everyone goes through our movement assessment first so you can train safely. If we think you’d be better suited to a few 1:1 personal training sessions before joining the groups, we’ll tell you and help you decide.
How big are the group sessions?
We cap sessions at 12. That’s small enough for individual coaching and big enough for a good atmosphere, so it feels like a personal training session shared with a few friends.
