About UP! Athletic Club Gym
UP! Athletic Club is a boutique functional fitness gym tucked into the basement level on Church Street in Cremorne. With class sizes capped at around a dozen, it delivers a small-group coaching experience where technique, individual attention and a genuinely friendly atmosphere come first.
Members consistently praise coaches who know how to teach good technique and modify exercises around any restriction, making it a confidence-building place for beginners while still challenging more experienced athletes. The boutique feel means people feel like more than just a number, with programs adapted to each person's fitness level and everything explained thoroughly.
It is a notably family-friendly club too, with members valuing the ability to keep training through parental leave. Between functional fitness, Olympic weightlifting, mobility and dedicated programs for over-50s and parents, the club suits a wide range of locals in the Cremorne and Richmond area, from new starters to shift workers, who want quality coaching in a supportive, community-minded environment rather than an anonymous big-box gym.
