About us

Founded from a love of fitness and a commitment to health and wellbeing, Body & Soul Gym was established in 2018, beginning its journey in a small space below the Deloraine Hotel. For five years, Tamsyn led classes and worked to grow the business, expanding from limited hours to a 24-hour gym.

Since those early days, Tamsyn has partnered with like-minded instructors to create an inclusive and comprehensive fitness business across two vibrant locations. Together, they continue to provide exceptional services to the community, regularly adding new classes and fitness options to the timetable.

Questions?

We have the answers!

How long does it take to see results?

Be patient. Results take time, but if you're consistent,

they absolutely will come. The exciting thing is that as a

beginner, results come fairly quickly. Even in 30 days, you

can really see a difference in your strength and overall

fitness.

Do I get the chance to meet new friends?

Absolutely. We have a broad mix of people, ages, and

occupations within the gym. You will be buddied up with

someone in your first class so you get to know someone

straight away. We pride ourselves on being inclusive and

inviting anyone new to the gym

What sets you apart from other gyms in the area?

We are a community of people that share the same fitness journey as you. We are here to build each other up - If you win, we all win!

How often do you recommend coming to workout classes?

For beginners, 2–4 classes per week is a realistic starting point, depending on your current fitness level. It may take some time for your body to adjust to training at higher intensity, so in the beginning, you might need extra recovery time between sessions. Over the first few months, aim to gradually build up to 5 training days per week.
