01
Start with a conversation
Walk in. Ask anything.
Your Free Intro is a 15-minute phone call or a 30-minute visit. Tell us what you want from training, see the floor and get an honest recommendation. No card. No pressure.
Come through the roller door
Your team for the long game.
Your own program. A coach on the floor. A small group that knows your name. Whether this is your first Session or your five hundredth, we meet you where you are and help you keep moving forward.
Real coaching. Zero ego. Known by name. Mornington, since 2014.
Your own program
Built around your starting point and goals.
Maximum eight
Small enough for a coach to coach the whole floor.
Every Session coached
Support from the first rep to the last.
You can start here
You do not need to arrive as an athlete.
You might want to feel stronger, return after years away, perform better in your sport or help your child build confidence. Bring the starting point you have. We will coach the person in front of us.
New to training
We teach you before expecting you to know.
Coming back
We rebuild from what your body can do today.
Chasing performance
We assess, program, coach and retest.
From the moment you walk in
Real coaching.
Zero ego.
Known by name.
Joining a gym can feel like being handed a key and left to work it out. At Virtus, support is built into every step.
02
Learn before you train
Begin one to one.
Standard S&C and VAD onboarding starts with five one-to-one Sessions. We learn your history, teach the movements and build the program you will take onto the floor.
03
Train with people beside you
Your program. Small-group energy.
You follow your own plan in a coached Session capped at eight. A coach is there from start to finish, and the people around you bring energy without the ego.
04
Keep moving forward
Progress you can see.
Testing, check-ins and each 13-week Season help us see what is changing, decide what comes next and keep the work connected to what matters to you.
Inside a Session
See the floor for yourself.
Watch the coaching, the pace and the people. Then come in and feel it in the room.
Your third home
Belonging looks like this.
The same faces each week. Kids in tow before school. Dogs curled up by the turf. People who notice when you are there and check in when you are not.
Coaches and care, together
The people beside you.
Meet the Virtus team, then book physio, osteo or psychology directly from the same place. Allied-health practitioners run independent practices at our address.

Member stories
Real people. Real progress.
Kate Norman
S&C · Member since 2026“I was struggling to get back into the gym after having my second baby. I'd been training consistently for about eight years and that was the longest break I'd had. The biggest change for me would definitely be just my mental health, which was like an instant thing. As soon as I started at Virtus, I just felt like myself again, had my confidence back.”
Jackson Alcock
VAD · Member since 2021“The biggest thing about my training that has changed is probably my knowledge around it. It exposed me to the why behind training, why you're doing exercise, for what purpose, how it relates to the sport that you want to train for and almost outside of life too.”
Jack McMillan
VAD · Member since 2025“I'm currently four weeks post-op from a hamstring rupture and I'm working closely with Emily Wallace and Aiden. I'm currently out for the season, but a goal of mine is to be back running by the end of the year. The Virtus team have been very supportive through the period so far with daily check-ins.”

The honest answers
Things people ask before they walk in.
What does it cost?
Everyone starts with a Free Intro, and that costs nothing. Choose a 15-minute phone call or a 30-minute visit to discuss what you want and whether Virtus is a fit. If it is, you start with one-on-one onboarding: a coach screens how you move, teaches you the lifts from the ground up and builds your first program, so you are never guessing on the floor. After that, memberships run from $69 to $119 a week depending on the program and how often you train, and every Session is coached. The full breakdown is on our pricing page.
How is this different from a normal gym?
A normal gym sells you access to equipment. We coach you: every Session is run by a coach, capped at a maximum of eight on the floor, on a program built around your goals. You are paying for progress, not a swipe card.
I'm not fit enough to start.
You are exactly who we coach. Onboarding is one to one, your program starts where you actually are, and nobody on our floor cares what anyone else is lifting. Every member started somewhere.
I've never touched a barbell.
Perfect. No habits to unlearn. Your coach teaches you from the ground up in onboarding, and you will not touch a loaded bar until you have earned it and want it.
How much time do I need?
Most members train 2 to 4 Sessions a week. Sessions run 45 to 75 minutes and every minute is programmed, so you are in, coached and out.
What happens at the Free Intro?
Choose a 15-minute phone call or a 30-minute visit. Talk through your goals and training history, ask questions, see the floor if you visit and get an honest recommendation even if it is not Virtus.
