Body Evolution

I can't recommend this gym enough!! From day one, I felt welcomed and supported by the amazing trainers, who are not only friendly but genuinely invested in their gym member's fitness journeys. This is the first gym I've ever loved going to, which speaks volumes about the atmosphere they've created. I love the small intimate environment and personalized approach. The trainers help make my fitness goals actually feel achievable. They’re also attentive to technique and form, helping me learn to perform exercises safely and effectively. If anyone is looking for a place that motivates you and makes working out enjoyable, this is the spot.

I joined Body Evolution because I wanted to slow things down and work on strength and technique with heavier lifting rather than the more HIIT style gym classes I had been doing. Absolutely stoked with my progress so far! You get the push when needed and the support always! The tunes, the people, the trainers and the workouts are a total vibe. I LOVE coming to class and have made some awesome connections with likeminded gym goers - the chat alone is worth your while!!!! I am also really enjoying the new addition of the infrared sauna and plunge pool for post exercise recovery. I’ve even managed to get my kids in there to help with their sports recovery. If you’re after a gentle entry back into exercise or a solid push to help reach your goals - BE is the place 🙌.

Word of mouth through a friend had me discover Body Evolution 6 months ago. Annalise and Hayden create a warm friendly, safe, and most of all fun environment to work out in. Keeping me in check with technique and form always. Met some great wahine! Discipline to show up is key. Stronger everyday 🏋️‍♂️.

I love working out at Body Evolution. The small class sizes ensure a personalised experience and each member receives the attention they need, tailored to their level of fitness. The knowledgeable trainers pay close attention to detail and form. The equipment and the gym environment are high quality. I recommend this gym to ladies looking for a supportive and well-equipped place to achieve their fitness goals :)

Annalise is a fantastic coach, the classes are always different and you get pushed personally which I love. They have a sauna and plunge pool which is fantastic. Definitely recommend this gym it's awesome

A gym that is more than your average gym. Annalise, Jade, and Eva really know their stuff - are knowledgeable, encouraging, fun, and provide a safe space for women to be themselves. BE is such a supportive environment to be part of, not only from the coaches but the other ladies you train with. There is always lots of hard work done but just as much fun and laughter. It is truly a special place to be part of. The sessions are varied, never boring, and very doable. They are always catered to the needs of each individual person. My overall strength, stamina, and flexibility have improved hugely since being a part of the BE team.

I'm 9 months into my gym journey and loving it. After years of running, I have shifted my mindset from being 'smaller' to being strong 💪Great support from the team, and the wonderful women working out. Every class has a new challenge 😁

Love love love. If you are looking for a safe, inclusive, fun place to train, pop in and see the team at Body Evolution. I have been a member of many gyms, and this one I actually want to go to, love the atmosphere, the people and the group training, when work gets busy, I am absolutely guttered when I cannot make a class!

Body Evolution is the place to train in Whangārei! Never felt so safe and supported in a gym. Surrounded by motivational, diverse women and everyone is so kind and supportive. The vibes are fun and it is a safe space to show up as you are. Annalise and Hayden are some of the best coaches in this town and their other coaches are equally knowledgable. Promise you'll not regret making this switch!

BE is the perfect balance between a welcoming atmosphere and awesome workouts. All the trainers are knowledgeable and supportive, creating a friendly and motivating environment. Perfect gym for people seeking a solid gym experience with a great vibe.

I cannot recommend Body evolution enough! I’ve never enjoyed working out and was always intimidated by gyms but at Body Evolution I instantly felt comfortable, supported and motivated! Exercises are tailored to all fitness levels with small personal classes of incredible women in a modern, clean, comfortable space. The last 7 months really have been life changing, I no longer just want to “lose weight” I want to be strong and healthy and I feel empowered to absolutely achieve that. I now find myself looking forward to going and even going 5, sometimes 6, days a week because I enjoy it so much! Thank you so much Annalise, you truly have created a very special space.

This gym is the absolute best in town! I have tried gyms in the past and never felt comfortable but Body Evolution was a game changer for me! Annalise you have created the most amazing space for us lady’s so thank you very much xxx

I have been attending this gym for just about 2 years, I love it! It is not only a gym but more like a family. Annalise checks in, she is avaliable and none of us are a number! I also feel strong and fit at the same time which is all the things that are important to me! Thanks Annalise, Hayden and the BE Whanau!

There is more to this gym than just being a place to work out. I've been a part of Body Evolution for 4 months now and feel so grateful to have discovered this place. I walked into this gym shy, nervous and had no idea what I was about to get myself into. I have never walked out of a gym class feeling so good and excited to return the next day and end up going every day of the week each week. You guessed it, this gym is AMAZING! Annalise and Hayden have created a safe space that allows all Wahine mā to be unapologetically you. It meant that I could be my most uncoordinated, always injured, and unconfident self and be 100% well and truly supported, hyped up, and given the opportunity to finally achieve results I never imagined possible. Their passion, understanding, and expertise in what they both do for us here make this gym stand out. Body Evolution cannot be recommended highly enough. From the girl who couldn't run, burpee or lift, who is now well and truly on her way to running further, lifting heavier and getting down on those burpees.

I have been at Body Evolution for 3 months and I am loving it. I love the space, the equipment is amazing, the music is always great. Annalise and her team are very knowledgeable and supportive trainers and passionate about health and well-being. The classes are a great size, where they really help with technique for safe movement. It’s such a welcoming, fun and friendly environment and I’m so glad I found them. I always walk out feeling amazing. I highly recommend Body Evolution to anyone at any age, and any stage in their fitness 💯

I've never really been a fan of gyms, but Body Evolution is different... not only is it a gorgeous space to workout with knowledgeable and encouraging trainers; it's a community of amazing women that support each other to thrive physically, mentally and emotionally. I have absolutely loved my time with Body Evolution, and found myself looking forward to workouts like never before (even with early morning starts!). I had joined with the aim of strengthening my injury-prone upper body, but was most surprised with the mental health gains I was making, especially as life pressure kept building. I can’t recommend Body Evolution enough, it changed my life!!

In the past few years some really traumatic things have happened in my life and I was in a really bad place mentally. Someone told me to try exercise, that it will help. I looked into it but struggled to find somewhere that would suit because I didn't want to be around large groups of people, or anywhere that was really public, or anywhere with lots of men. It made me feel really anxious as I had lost alot of confidence and was super self conscious. I was told of this place "Body Evolution". I met with the owner Annalise, she was friendly and encouraging and made me feel comfortable straight away. The fitness classes are all women, small groups at a time and they are all friendly and encouraging too. Everything was new to me and I was not used to doing regular exercise. But I started and kept going, 3 times a week every week. I pushed myself to keep going until I got used to it, until it became a habit. The feeling I get after training is so good. I feel happier, I feel like I've accomplished something. My mood in general has improved heaps. I started getting my confidence back. I'm sleeping better and with the nutrition plan I started feeling healthier. I never would have thought exercise would help with my mental health like this but it does, majorly! Body Evolution has such a positive, friendly and supportive environment. I'm so glad I made the decision to be a part of it.

BE has a gym atmosphere that reflects support, knowledge and genuine people with great training sessions. A place where everyone can be themselves with no judgement. Annalise and Hayden know what they are doing - that is people stay happy and healthy when they feel part of a supportive community. They also understand that being healthy isn’t really about being a size zero, it’s about feeling confident and healthy in your mind as well as body. It’s as good as it gets here.

Hayden & Annalise are doing an awesome job with the new gym they really care about each & every member so it feels more like a family than a gym 😍 Hayden had been my trainer for the past year for a work bootcamp and I loved his encouragement & knowledge around safe training so when I heard about the new gym I had no hesitation in joining. Come join us you won’t regret it! 👍

I have belonged to a number of gyms over my life time but none have the atmosphere of Body Evolution. All ages and abilities are made to feel welcome. Whether you are super fit and strong or a newbie you are included in the gym family Annalise and Hayden are incredible trainers. They are the best I have ever worked with. Their programs each day are challenging but really enjoyable. Technique is of high importance and due to the small numbers everyone gets attention and help I am LOVING it and even after a few weeks of training with the team I am feeling in a better physical and mental state ❤️

I appreciate the support and enthusiasm that Annalise and Hayden give and show each one of us individually.

The last time I felt like training in the gym 5 days a week was probably way back in 2005. I have finally found my happy place! Amazing coaches and a great group of likeminded women.

Annalise and Hayden have put so much thought into this beautiful space which is a private gym that feels more personal. They ensure technique is always correct to avoid injury, and always set up and ready to start training with an exercise routine planned. Weights, machines, cardio section always super clean and organised. They will scale your workouts to accommodate you following surgery, just beginning or whatever your goals might be. Age does not matter here. The professionalism and passion for what they do is second to none.

Great atmosphere at Body Evolution, Annalise and Hayden take the time to walk you through each move to ensure your body is in the correct position when lifting. Did I mention awesome banter too!

Warm atmosphere with workouts catered towards your fitness level. The vibe is so supportive, fun and vibrant and you come out feeling stronger and energised after pushing yourself each day 🙌🏾

BE has handsdown been the best gym I have ever attended! Annalise and Hayden take time to demonstrate proper technique always, they ensure all workouts are carried out to protect our bodies and also cater to some who have past or present injuries, aswell as age and fitness ability. The workouts are fun, always different & enjoyable. They motivate you to turn up and always playing great music to jam to!! They definitely make it a gym that you want to be involved in. The range of classes on their timetable are convenient & they also have an added benefit of a Contrast Therapy space, with Sauna and Plunge pool for recovery & wellbeing. Being a woman’s only gym means they cater to women’s health! Everyone that shows up is supportive and friendly, it’s definitely a safe community gym I highly recommend!
