Fitness Complete

Fitness Complete is a training studio in Hawthorn, with sessions based at Grace Park Hawthorn Club and access to both the park’s outdoor setting and an indoor studio. The business has operated for more than 14 years, including eight years in Hawthorn East and nine years at its current Grace Park location. Group sessions move indoors during the cooler months, allowing members to keep training throughout the year.

The programme covers several different approaches to exercise. Group training is designed to support fitness, stamina, strength and general wellbeing, while Strength & Conditioning focuses on strength and anaerobic endurance. HIIT & Boxing is aimed at people who enjoy a more demanding workout, and Functional & Ladies Training adapts exercises to assist older individuals with everyday activities. There is also sports-specific coaching, corporate group fitness, private small-group training and one-on-one personal training.

The atmosphere described by the team is structured but approachable: sessions are intended to be challenging without feeling intimidating, and exercises can be adapted across fitness levels. That makes the studio suitable for people seeking guidance in a group environment, as well as those who prefer individual coaching or a private group. The site also highlights the option to attend a complimentary trial week in available group sessions, with the invitation to bring a friend.

Fitness Complete is run by Steven and Emma Pouniotis. Steven is a personal trainer and wellness coach with 25 years of experience, including qualifications in personal training, strength and conditioning, training for older adults, boxing and wellness coaching. Emma has 15 years of experience and combines personal training with online weight-loss coaching and administration. Her background includes competitive swimming, coaching and qualifications in fitness, swimming instruction and aquatic safety. Together, they offer training and nutrition-focused support for people working towards improved fitness, strength, sport-specific goals or weight management.

For those interested in nutrition support, the FC Weight Loss & Detox Program is delivered online and is diet-based, without intense exercise during the eating programme. The website says the programme can result in up to 7kg of weight loss in three weeks, while noting that results vary. With group classes, private options and coaching tailored to different needs, Fitness Complete suits solo clients, older adults, people returning to exercise and groups looking for a more personal training experience.
