Gym In Bacchus Marsh
Art of Training | Maddingley's Coached Fitness & Martial Arts Gym
Looking for a gym in Bacchus Marsh that actually gets you results?
Art of Training is Bacchus Marsh's coached fitness and martial arts facility — a gym where qualified coaches run every session, every class has a purpose, and every member is part of a community that makes showing up feel worthwhile.
We're not a 24/7 access gym with rows of treadmills and nobody to talk to. We're a training facility where real coaching happens, real progress gets made, and real people, beginners, parents, athletes, and everyone in between, come to get fitter, stronger, and more capable.
Located in Maddingley, we're Bacchus Marsh's home for Strength & Conditioning, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Women's Muay Thai, Personal Training, and Kids & Teens programs.
What Makes Art of Training Different From Other Gyms in Bacchus Marsh
There's no shortage of gym options in Bacchus Marsh. Here's what separates us from the rest.
Every class is coached. There's a qualified coach in every single session. Not watching from a distance, actively coaching technique, correcting movement, and pushing you to improve. This is the biggest difference between what we do and what a standard gym offers.
Training that actually progresses. Our programs are structured and progressive. You're not doing random workouts, you're following a program that builds on itself week to week, so you get measurably stronger and fitter over time.
A community that keeps you accountable. One of the hardest things about fitness is staying consistent. Training with the same group of people, coached by people who notice when you're not there, solves that problem in a way a solo gym membership never can.
More than one way to train. Whether you want to build strength, learn a martial art, improve your fitness, or do all three, we have programs that work together under one roof and one membership.
Our Programs:
Strength & Conditioning
Our flagship fitness program for adults. Coached group classes focused on building real strength, improving fitness, and moving better. Progressive, purposeful, and suitable for all levels from complete beginner upward.
Perfect for: anyone wanting a coached alternative to a commercial gym, people looking for structured group fitness classes in Bacchus Marsh, and those who want results without guesswork.
Muay Thai
The art of eight limbs. Our adult Muay Thai classes develop striking skills, fitness, coordination and mental toughness, in a structured, beginner-friendly environment. One of the best full-body workouts available, and genuinely enjoyable to train.
Perfect for: adults wanting a fitness program that's also a real skill, people who get bored of conventional gym workouts, and anyone who wants to feel more capable and confident.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ)
Coached by three black belt instructors, our BJJ program teaches practical grappling skills in a progressive, welcoming environment.
BJJ is physical chess — it develops problem-solving, composure, and fitness simultaneously.
Perfect for: adults wanting a technical challenge alongside fitness, people interested in self-defence, and those looking for a tight-knit training community.
Women's Only Muay Thai
A dedicated Muay Thai program for women, same high-quality coaching, same real skills, in a class environment designed specifically for women. Led by Jenna, a former professional fighter with an unbeaten record.
Perfect for: women wanting to learn striking skills, improve fitness, and build confidence in a supportive, women-only environment.
Personal Training
One-on-one coaching with our qualified personal trainers. Fully individualised programs built around your specific goals, schedule, and starting point, with the accountability of a coach dedicated entirely to your progress.
Perfect for: people who want fully individualised programming, those recovering from injury, and anyone who wants faster results with personal attention.
Kids and Teens Classes
Muay Thai, BJJ, and Strength & Conditioning programs for children aged 5 through to 17. Coached by qualified instructors who understand how to work with young people, building confidence, discipline, fitness, and real skills in a safe and enjoyable environment.
Perfect for: parents looking for a structured, high quality after-school activity that builds more than just physical fitness.

FAQs
Is Art Of Training a regular gym?
We're a coached training facility rather than a traditional access gym. Every session has a qualified coach running it — which means you get more guidance, more accountability, and better results than a standard gym membership typically delivers. If you want equipment to use independently, a 24/7 commercial gym might suit you better. If you want coaching, community, and programs that actually work — you're in the right place.
Is it beginner friendly, Do I need any experience?
None at all. We regularly take complete beginners and coach everything from the ground up. Your first few sessions will focus on movement quality and getting comfortable — we progress from there at a pace that suits you.
Can I try before I commit?
Yes — your first class is free, no strings attached. We also offer a 14-day full access trial for $39 that lets you try any and all of our programs before deciding on a membership.
How often should I train?
Two to four sessions per week delivers excellent results for most people. We'll help you figure out what works for your schedule and your goals.
What should I bring?
Comfortable training clothes and a water bottle. We’ll guide you from there.
