I had been tracking Sonny's for a while. Big thing for me was not really knowing my way around the gym from a strength exercise and form point of view. The Sonny's team helped with form, provided guidance, really took the time to help. The mixture of classes covers all areas whilst having a great upbeat and supportive team environment.

Fantastic gym, programmed to suit all different schedules and goals but in a way that you can really get the most out of your individual training goals. All coaches are top notch, special note to Courtney who genuinely cares about your progress and safety and spends real time assisting whilst balancing keeping everyone on track. Sonny the owner is very easy to talk to. All in all very happy to have found this place and highly recommend for all!

Found the gym via ClassPass and booked myself in for a Monday full body strength workout. Gym was easy to find, just round the corner from the 78 tram stop. Class was fairly busy for a lunch time class but the coach was able to command the class well and the workout was very balanced. The coach was also knowledgeable, giving me variations and alternatives for some of the exercises that I was not able to do.

I did the Strong Full Body class with Rhys at Sonny's Gym and it's a game changer. The sessions were tough but in the best way — super challenging, motivating, and you always feel supported to push a little further. Rhys' energy is contagious, and he knows how to get the whole room fired up. Every workout leaves you stronger, buzzing, and proud of what you've achieved.

What an absolutely ace community! I can't even begin to explain how much I enjoy training at Sonny's. The vibe is unbeatable — everyone is welcoming, supportive, and genuinely invested in each other's progress. The workouts are always challenging in the best way, and the atmosphere makes you want to keep showing up. Sonny's isn't just a gym, it's a place where you feel motivated, inspired, and part of something special.

The best gym in Melbourne! Most of the trainers have been here since the start. They all really know their stuff and take the time to get to know all the members individually. Sonny is always looking for new ways to improve the gym and make it fun. It's a really motivating community to be part of — everyone comes here because they genuinely enjoy training and want to be strong.

Sonny and the other coaches make everyone feel encouraged, supported and comfortable whilst challenging you and pushing your potential. Really fun workouts, great guidance and clear instructions. Would highly recommend to become the strongest, fittest version of yourself.

I love the community that Sonny's built and the friends that I've made.

Sonny's is epic because the community is just so good. You come here every morning, there's so many people to train with. Everybody's in similar mindsets. The vibes are just so high.

He makes me do things that I don't want to do or I don't think I can do.

I love how Sonny's is focused on strength training. Having such a structured program, being grounded by such strong people, particularly strong women, is so inspiring.

I've only been training for a month or so, but honestly I've probably never gotten more out of training than I have in the last month. The community is genuinely great and I love the programming.

What I love most about Sonny is that he always believes in you and your strength and your abilities, even when you don't believe in yourself. And he's always there to push you.

He does not ever let you slack. When he claps behind you — far out. And the gym, he's created such a nice community.

My favourite thing about the gym is how inclusive it is.

I love coming here because even at my best or my worst, we're always focusing on what we can do, how we can get better.

Perfect mixture between weight training and hybrid training.

I love Sonny because he created a community that made me feel like at home when I moved away from my home. I've made so many friends — long term friends.

I have seen Sonny go from basically being a boy working in the gym to owning his own gym and he's grown incredibly. There's not much not to like about Sonny.

The community is amazing. Everyone here is amazing. The coaches are amazing. He's amazing.

The reason I love coming to Sonny's is because all the coaches are so invested in all our journeys and they really help us push to reach our goals.

Thank you Sonny for everything that you have done for us and the larger group.

My favourite thing about Sonny's is the coffee post track club — shout out to Upton.

I love Sonny because he gave me a job.

Favourite thing about Sonny is he's scary enough that it forces me to get better at cardio.
