STM FiT (Avalon): Opinions
Fantastic experience: Awsome place, and the trainers are friendly and very helpful
Thanks Joe, all the best with the travels, pop in whenever you are back over these ways.
Fantastic experience: STM fit is by far the best gym I've ever trained at. I gained more result during one year than I could ever hope for. Super friendly asthmosphere with awesome trainers. The training classes are just fun, I enjoyed every minute of it! Can recommend STM fit with Richard and the other trainers if you want to see real result while having fun training and being supported every step of the way. Would give you 10 stars but there's only 5 so that will have to do.... Thank you guys! ☺️
Ann-Catherine thanks for the review. And well done! Very consistent training, and well earned results. :)
Fantastic experience: Joined STM FiT with great expectations and was not disappointed. We have a fantastic coach in Richard who is very experienced and knowledgeable. Easy to follow instructions and good to know we are held accountable for putting in the effort in the gym. If you need structured coaching tailored to improve your fitness and overall well being this is a good place to be.
Thanks Debbie. What a great start to training (easy to see some really good improvements already). Happy holidays!
Really looking forward to some great things in 2025.
Fantastic experience: Such a good gym with a good atmosphere, good members and good equipment! The classes are so fun and the trainers always change things up to keep it interesting and they push you as hard as you can go! When I signed up I didn’t realise it was a family friendly gym but as a mum I really appreciate being able to bring my 3 year old along to classes too - which she absolutely enjoys taking part of as well! I was at another gym for 2.5 months before joining stm fit and I wish I had of found it earlier, Richard and the team are AMAZING!
Thanks Olivia! Stoked to have you training with us:
Fantastic to see you gym side on a consistent basis.
Fantastic experience: The team and trainers are so welcoming and supportive. Richard and other team members always motivate me and help me get better with my workouts. Thank you STM gym
Thanks Navii

Fantastic experience: The trainers at STM Fit are amazing. It's a friendly welcoming and encouraging environment. I have always left a completed class feeling like I had a decent work and glad I came in.
Thanks Nadia! Well done on your results! Can easily see a lot of improvements so far. See you in gym soon.
Fantastic experience: I have only just started my health and fitness journey here and Richard and his team have made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. The classes are amazing with awesome coaches. The gym members are super fun! The body scan was the game changer for me. Having those stats has made me want this for myself even more. The whānau approach is also why I chose to be in this space as it allows my daughters to be apart of this journey. I will be recommending Rich and his team to my friends and family. 10/10 ❤️
Thanks Millie. Absolutely love the start you have made. Looking forward to seeing what you can achieve. See you gym side soon. : )
Negative experience: SCAM! Avoid this place at all costs, Owner promotes a 8 week challenge but really gets you to commit to a full fixed term membership Really short term cooling period and admin is outsourced overseas Best to go to a gym that offers more flexible payment options
Fantastic experience: Such a great facility and team. I found myself unexpectedly in Hamilton and Richard and the team here were so kind and helpful. The equipment was top tier, the gym so clean and tidy and staff so helpful. What more could you ask for?! Definitely recommend this trying STM if you’re looking for your next spot for your fitness journey. Thanks again team ❤️
Thank you Andrew! :)

Thank you :)
Fantastic experience: STM Fit has awesome trainers and a very friendly team environment. Classes are fun and gets your heart rate going for sure! The high fives at the end of class will keep you going back for more. Definitely recommend STM Fit and everything they have to offer. This is by far the first gym that I have been apart of where I truly felt like part of the family. 10 out of 10!
Thanks Mindie. What a start :) .

Fantastic experience: I started at STM fit a month ago. I have been loving every minute that I have been going there. It’s a family-oriented gym. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, you feel comfortable there and you can go at your own pace. The trainers are amazing and all the classes get your body moving and going. I definitely recommend this gym. Great place!
Thanks Chloe-Jane, so much fitter and stronger on your end.
Keeps us on our toes when pad holding.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the motivation and encouragement we receive from the trainers and group members. The trainers are well connected to the group and offer constant coaching to improve your techniques, so you can work out safely. The 5am class is the best way to start you day !!
Thanks! What a fantastic start you have both made. And the 5am crew is a great team to train alongside. Wake up, train, the rest of the day is yours.
Fantastic experience: STM fit is not only an incredible gym but an extremely inclusive community. Everyone is so supportive of one another and challenges each other to be 1% better than the day before :)
Thanks Jess! :)
Fantastic experience: I have learnt more at STM FiT than anywhere before (15 years in gyms). The people 100% make the place. I feel silly for going to other places, waiting on equipment, or not knowing what to do. Members make you feel welcome. And coaches help with everything else.
Fantastic experience: Great gym - so easy to go to whenever you like. It's nice and friendly with all the equipment you need.
Fantastic experience: Richard always has great advice. Friendly atmosphere where nobody cares what level you are at, only ever positive atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Is a good gym. I like the vibe and the 24hrs.
Fantastic experience: Kelly, Mo, Anna, Richard. Your spoilt which ever coach you get. PS I love the fact that they encourage you to go 50% for the first bit..
Fantastic experience: As someone who weighs 160KG this is the ONLY gym I have ever felt welcomed at. And to my shock I actually miss it when I am away or sick etc. Life changing. Trust me I hate gyms normally. This place is something else.
Fantastic experience: Relaxed environment, friendly staff, not too crowded.
Fantastic experience: Great local gym - friendly staff and members and a great place to work out.
Fantastic experience: Love it! Great atmosphere, variety of exercises. My favourite bootcamp.
Fantastic experience: Great service.This is the only place I have felt welcomed. And they are very good at adjusting the bootcamp to help with any niggly injuries. Highly recommend.Thank you so much ❣️
Fantastic experience: The group training is inclusive of all stages of fitness whether you're a beginner or expert. One of the things Richard and his team do better is personalize the circuit to suit you.
Fantastic experience: The trainers are friendly and I like how they are constantly walking around the class pushing you to your limits and correcting your form. The body measures are good to help with motivation too. I am now younger than my age.
Fantastic experience: Friendly gym!! Thank you, enjoyed my class.
Fantastic experience: Exercise is important for mental health. I’ve never been someone big on exercise. And I don’t normally like gyms. Well done team STM.
Fantastic experience: Friendly helpful & relaxed atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: I've been training with Coach Mo for two months and it's been a life-changing experience. Working out and learning new technique has been a lot of fun for me. Our sessions have been enjoyable, and they have benefited both my mental health and my way of living. STM is perfect for anyone who is just getting started with fitness because it is a private gym with no one around to make you feel insecure. :)
Thanks for the review Jemima.Love the progress you are making so far.:)And 100% agree the personal training plus private gym option can be the best place to get started.
Fantastic experience: I have worked with Coach Mo for over 3 months and I have made more progress mentally and physically over these past 3 months than the last few years of trying to do it on my own. He has a wealth of knowledge, great strength training for beginners and is very professional and easy to get along with.
Thanks for the review Riina.What fantastic progress you have made so far, keep it up.:)
Fantastic experience: Friendly gym, great classes, great environment
Thanks Chae!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with such a lovely gym family vibe. Richard provides lots of advice and is very helpful and encouraging. Always enjoy the early morning workouts.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Arrived to STM Fit not feeling the best. Gym life was stagnant and monotonous. I gave myself a week to see how it went and that was May 2021. Now I'm enjoying fit life again as STM Fit is a place where all people feel welcomed and cared for. The gym and coaches have been nothing but amazing. Not only do they care about your fitness, they also invest in you as a person! Nothing but love for this awesome gym
A big thanks from the STM Family. Love the progress you've made, and that your part of our training team .
Negative experience: Overpriced and old outdated equipment.
Hey Mark,
Wishing you a speedy recovery from your pre-existing health conditions. It is a real shame that you were only able to train with us for a very short period at the start of 2022. Thanks for letting us know training wise that it was the most welcomed you have ever felt in a gym, and that you missed not being able to join in on the classes.
A bit odd to get a review like this 6-months later on. In short medical clearance can be required for gym training - particularly with high risk health concerns / doctors concerns.
Your doctor has you on the right path with this, and with a bit of patience you will be able to get there. Hang in there.
If you wish to chat through anything further you have our direct line to call.
All the best.
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my training with Richard at STM. Great to have someone who's friendly, inspiring and prepared to help out so you can meet your fitness goals. Absolute recommendation

Classes are never boring, they keep changing it so you never at your comfort zone ;-) The trainers are so friendly yet at the same time they push you hard to achieve your goals.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend STM Fit, the classes cater for people from beginners to gym bunnies. STM Fit Avalon has a great community with welcoming trainers and members alike, it’s a supportive culture that fosters the best in everyone. The trainers are amazing, they teach and challenge you to achieve more than you thought you could possibility achieve in a caring and personal way. I joined over a year ago and have gone from a person who hated the gym to someone who gets up every morning encouraged the attend. I am now fitter, stronger, happier and feel healthier than ever before. Thank you Richard and the team, you all do an amazing job.
