ONI | Personal Training Gym

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Wellington. I’ve been to many gyms and this one tops them. Nice areas good equipment, great trainers and even post workout meals available. If you’re looking to take the gym seriously I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Had few sessions with Emma and cannot believe the results I’ve achieved. Really pushed me to get my strength up and get me jacked. Couldn’t recommend it enough

Fantastic experience: Nice location close my work in town. The equipment is all very new looking and the gym is spacious. Rob is my PT at ONI and has been for several years. He has helped me train to run multiple marathons injury-free in addition to shoulder rehab for a longstanding injury. Rob finds ways to keep it fun and we do boxing now to change things up while still getting the most out of a session.

Fantastic experience: Everything about Oni is great: the equipment, facilities, size and services offered. And most importantly for a personal training gym the trainers are awesome. I’ve been training with Laura for about 15 months and she’s been wonderful - so knowledgeable, fun, and good at tailoring programmes and sessions to my goals and the energy levels I have on the day. Couldn’t recommend her enough!!

Fantastic experience: Been going to ONI for a year and it’s been amazing ☺️ I love training here in a more private environment especially coming out of an injury where there’s a lot more fails than there are successes! All the staff here are so nice highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: I’m so happy to have found ONI! The gym is exactly what I was looking for—small, private, and welcoming, which makes a huge difference for me since big gyms can feel overwhelming. My trainer, Emma, is incredibly kind and knowledgeable. She has already helped me so much with my form and has been great at working with my scoliosis, making sure everything feels catered to my needs. The space is clean, modern, and easily accessible, creating the perfect environment for focused and personalized training. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Rob, and it’s been an amazing experience. With his years of experience in personal training, he provides expert guidance tailored to my fitness goals. He is incredibly supportive. His workout plans are effective and challenging, yet he makes them enjoyable with his positive attitude and encouragement. The gym facilities are also excellent! very clean, well maintained, and equipped with a great variety of machines and weights to suit different workout styles. Whether you’re focusing on strength training, endurance, or functional fitness, there’s everything you need. Overall, I highly recommend both to anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals!

Fantastic experience: Laura is excellent! I have a few old injuries we are working around and she watches for the weak points so we can strengthen them avoid set backs. The gym is very well equipped and has not been overcrowded during my sessions.

Fantastic experience: Awesome environment and great people! I am grateful for the space and atmosphere, as an on-again off-again client I always feel welcome and motivated to do one of the best selfcare things that I can recommend - look after my body and movement, and ONI is a great place to so! Thanks guys

Fantastic experience: ONI is a one-stop shop for those wanting to take their performance, general health, and knowledge in physical activity to the next level! The atmosphere is very welcoming, with a strong mix of ages, genders, abilities, and fitness goals - as well as having a great cast of trainers and professionals who are all very open, supportive, and inspiring! The staff here are equipped and strive to meet you where you are at, and help set you up to meet the goals you have in mind. A true one-stop-shop! I've primarily seen Adam since 2021 for powerlifting coaching - born from having repeated injuries while training on my own. I started barely doing 100 kg+ squats and deads to now doing mid-to-late 200 kg leg lifts and 140 kg+ bench. Adam comes in with a holistic approach and rich lived experience both as a coach and competing in the sport (he's a beast). Experience with Lou has also been, again bringing lived experience in mobility and callisthenic strength (may or may not be Spider-Man). Together with massage sessions, my mobility and flexibility knowledge and ability has been scaling with the gainz.

Fantastic experience: Oni is a friendly gym with great equipment and not crazy full like lots of the bigger gyms like city fitness or Les mills. I have been doing PT with Rob Collins and it has been absolutely awesome. Rob has been helped me in both building strength and keeping me fit. He certainly pushes me along which is what I want. Highly recommend him as a PT and Oni as a place to workout. Cheers Rob ( the author, not the PT!)

Fantastic experience: Oni is the most friendly gym I have ever been to and has people of all levels of fitness. I have been doing PT with Laura Dyson and it has been an absolute game changer. Laura has helped me in being able to get back to running after facing a chronic calf injury. She has also encouraged me to embrace strength training and given me the confidence to do sessions on my own. I have found a life long friend in Laura and am so grateful to have met her through training. She is quite literally a ray of sunshine and I look forward to continuing my training journey with her ♥️

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Diego at ONI, he’s an extremely competent PT with a lot of knowledge to impart. Diego is very in tune with his clients individual needs and his friendly personality makes it easy to come train.

Fantastic experience: I went searching for a trainer after I was advised I had Osteoporosis. Google took me to ONI where I found a list of personal trainers and I chose Laura. I have been working with Laura for about a year now. She is well qualified, passionate about women's health, and has taught me that age is no barrier to building strength, increasing fitness and flexibility. Laura has a great sense of humor, is very encouraging and I look forward to our weekly sessions, even though I know she is going to push me past what I think I am capable of.

Fantastic experience: Laura is a fantastic personal trainer who is professional, personable and just lovely. Laura keeps me motivated and turning up and I can see results from our sessions. I also love the ONI gym - it's not intimidating at all, everyone is lovely and the equipment is A1.

Fantastic experience: As someone who has been to many gyms, PTs, etc. over the years…ONI and our trainer Nic are truly the best. We were looking for a trainer who could help get my fiance and I in shape for our wedding but in a sustainable and realistic way that would also improve our overall health and strength. From our first meeting, Nic took so much care to get to know us, our needs and what we enjoyed/didn’t enjoy about working out to create the best programme for us. In the 2 months we’ve been training with Nic, we’ve seen great results and an improvement in our strength, muscle tone and we look forward to his sessions every week! We can’t recommend Nic and the team at ONI highly enough!

Fantastic experience: Been working with Rob for 7+ years myself and he's worked with a number of my friends and family. Followed him when he moved to Oni and really enjoying they gym - great amount of space, good equipment and welcoming friendly atmosphere. Love seeing the range of people and exercises being done in same space.

Fantastic experience: I have been doing the personal training with Guillaume, who is awesome! Its a neat space for those who dont have much confidence in mainstream gyms and you get a great support network. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Great PT, friendly, smiling, jokes and knows his stuff

Fantastic experience: A great hidden gem on Wellington to train at, with great range of equipment and an even better group of personal trainers!!

Fantastic experience: Extremely friendly staff members. They are all very knowledgeable and willingly to help. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic personal trainers and facilities. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I never thought I’d be the kind of person who looks forward to going to the gym, but here I am, never missing a session and actually excited to train. From the moment I walked through the doors, Adam and the entire team at ONI made me feel welcome, supported, and capable. Adam took the time to understand my goals and create a plan that challenged me while keeping me motivated. The workouts are effective, engaging, and designed to push me in the best way possible. I can genuinely feel how much stronger I’ve become, both physically and mentally. Beyond the training, the atmosphere is what keeps me coming back. It's welcoming, warm, and friendly. Now, instead of seeing workouts as a chore, they have become one of the best parts of my routine. If you’re looking for a gym and a trainer who will help you reach your full potential, I can’t recommend this enough. They have completely transformed how I approach fitness, and I’m so glad I started this journey. Go to ONI!

Fantastic experience: I find that there is so much space in the gym that it helps you to focus a lot more during training. The trainers are also very encouraging and helpful. My own trainer is considerate and respects my own personal and work schedule. I find that I am able to get a lot of knowledge and value out of my sessions with ONI :)

Fantastic experience: I’ve been using the gym for a couple of months. It has a great, friendly and chill vibe and the trainers you see around are always happy to help :)

Fantastic experience: Wonderful gym with great equipment and friendly people I've been working with Lorena as my Personal Trainer and I can not recommend her highly enough, she is kind, knowledgeable, and encouraging!

Fantastic experience: Incredible experience so far! Have seen Laurent for a mobility consultation and follow up. Laurent has an ability to make you feel very comfortable and explain everything so it's super easy to understand. Looking forward to my next session in a couple weeks and seeing what new exercises I get!

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, super friendly staff who really know their stuff! 10/10 would recommend

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Wellington, hands down. I've been going to ONI for over two years now. In that time I have had ups and downs with my training and Adam has been supportive and amazing to work with the whole way through. The atmosphere is relaxed, fun and non-judgmental and i always feel at ease and at home when I step into the gym. I 100% recommend ONI and wouldn't go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: Coach are so professional!

Fantastic experience: I've loved training at ONI with Lorena! So great to have a female PT that I enjoy going to sessions with! The space doesn't feel intimidated and has all the equipment you need.

Fantastic experience: James is a great trainer, the equipment is all good and you never have to wait long - if at all to use it.

Fantastic experience: I've been having mobility sessions with Laurent. During this time I've been improving my knee issues. Laurent is an excellent professional who knows what he's doing. He's very patient and encouraging guidance.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Laurent for around a year now helping me to perform better as a jiu jitsu athlete. Laurent has helped me fix injuries, bullet proof my body and gain immense amounts of strength, speed and power all while understanding the demands on my body from my actual sport. In an industry filled with bro science and random trial and error guesswork, Laurent and his team actually understand the science behind performance and apply it in a way that gets results. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Fantastic experience: I can’t speak highly enough of Alex! She has given me confidence as a 50 something woman that gym workouts can be safe and beneficial. She listens so well and adapts any exercises to take account of current niggles. The environment at Oni is laid back, not too big, and not intimidating to those unfamiliar with using a gym.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic, private gym, that never feels crowded. From just one session a week, Guillaume has helped me build flexibility and strength that far exceeded my initial goals. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Laura for 6 months and feeling great! She's been really knowledgable and helpful in getting me strong while dealing with unresolved birthing injuries. Now, my hubby's planning to join.

Fantastic experience: Oni Fitness are the best in the biz. Their team are thoughtful, respectful, and always working to progress your goals. Couldn't recommend more highly. I train twice a week and it's always a highlight of my day.

Fantastic experience: Been training with Guillaume for almost 3 months. The structure and training has been super helpful and effective. Seeing good results, and planning to stick with it for the foreseeable future.

Fantastic experience: ONI personal training sessions have transformed my health journey and has given the confidence to push forward and lead a well balanced life. Special shoutout to my trainer Lorena for her targeted workouts and always listening!

Fantastic experience: Diego is amazing! I had never seen a PT before (or even been to a gym) and have had a lot of trouble with my back over the years. Diego took me through a super thorough assessment process and created a personalised programme for me. He has been really easy to communicate with and flexible with organising sessions. I am super impressed by how knowledgeable he is - I have learned heaps over a short time (more than worth the money spent), I love the sessions and have been feeling great. Highly highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Oni is an awesome gym! I highly recommed Nico as a PT. I have been at ONI for over a year. Nico has played a huge part in my recovery post a complex meniscus tair. He easily adapted the exercices towards my needs, making training not only fun but also challenging. I have always struggled going to the gym, but my perspective has changed after working with Nico. I really appreciate his efforts into always creating a workout routine adapted to my needs and by listening to my input. As a women, I have always felt very safe working with him and I appreciate the alightment he brought in regards to menstrual cycles and training. This has hugely created more compassion towards myself. Thank you Nico!

Fantastic experience: 10/10, Full marks! I've been working with Carl at ONI for years now and each year I've improved more and more. Carl himself is both knowledgeable and fun to work with. I never feel like I’m being judged, even when struggling with something that feels like it should be easy. Whatever level you start at is good and can only get better from there. He’s also really understanding that “sometimes life happens” and stays encouraging, helping with the little things to try focus on each week to build up. Not every session has to be a new personal best. I especially enjoy the little games he makes out of certain exercises, explaining them with anecdotes of how he learned about them. It helps makes things fun, and before you realize it, you’ve already done a whole ton of exercises! I definitely recommend working with Carl if you’re given the chance. Thanks for being awesome, Carl!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Diego for the past 6 months and my strength and mobility has improved markedly. I have intermittently strength trained for years but have found Diego’s programmes extremely insightful and easy to keep up with. I really appreciate Diego’s knowledge and willingness to share with me to enable me to own my progress and recover from injury. I feel more in control of my body, strength and mobility than I have in all my years training. Would highly recommend Diego to anyone looking for a trainer who works with you on your fitness journey. The ONI gym is top teir – awesome equipment, great spaces and easy to get around. I appreciate the friendliness of all the trainers and how they treat and work with their clients. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Laurent for the last while and he's allowed me to hit all time pbs, without pain! Would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Carl for close to two years now, and I’ve enjoyed it immensely! Coming from not really knowing anything about form or using gym equipment properly, I’ve learned a lot and felt myself getting stronger. As someone in a reasonably niche sport (netball umpiring), Carl has always sought to understand how I move and how to best support me in my training to perform well, not to mention being a very safe, open and kind person. The gym itself is outstanding with very clean and modern facilities, and offering a range of services including massage (shout out to Carsten for helping with my back!). All of the trainers and professionals are so warm and inclusive (and really make an effort to get to you know), and I always feel so welcome every time I set foot in the gym. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for excellent holistic personal training!

Fantastic experience: Oni is the best gym I've been to, primarily because of its unique community of trainers and how much they love being part of that community. Every trainer is an expert in their chosen specialty area, loves what they do, and the knowledge sharing across those specialty areas is second to none. The facilities are excellent and the variety in equipment vast. My trainer, Carl, is the best trainer I've had - he's kind and pushes me with his at times unconventional training approach, which I love. I use the gym as a stress release and laughter is important. I get that with Carl, at Oni. Thanks Carl and Team Oni!

Fantastic experience: The ONI Personal Training Gym on Dixon Street is a hidden gem of Wellington. Every personal trainer I've met has their own origin story and superpowers. My wife and I work with Carl Rein, whose background in martial arts and expertise in kettlebells and weight training is the perfect match for our personal goals of functional strength and movement. Despite turning 60 this year, I continue to make gains that keep me in the game when rolling with much younger partners. What I like most about ONI is the vibe: everybody is there to become their best self, and the positive energy from trainers and clients alike makes one feel good about being there and good about the process. The bright, clean environment also inspires confidence. It's a remarkable realization of the vision that we can exercise the power to create the selves we want to be!

Fantastic experience: ONI is by far the best gym I've ever been to. I've had some off putting experiences in the past and was trying to get back into fitness, so I spent quite a bit of time trying to find the right gym and trainer. ONI do free no-pressure (really) consults so you can check the place and the people out. The space is great, has lot of room, variety in equipment (not just a line of treadmills!), and everyone is lovely. They have trainers that can cover everything and really go out of their way to match you with the right one. Laurent paired me up with Guillaume and we have been having a blast. He is lovely and has a wonderful attitude. He knows his stuff and does not do "one size fits all" - he really gets to know you and your goals and designs a personalised programme around that. Training with him feels like a genuine partnership and also fun. I'm smashing my goals and having a great time doing it. I cannot recommend Guillaume, Laurent, and the rest of the ONI crew highly enough.

Fantastic experience: After two years of neglecting the gym, I joined ONI with a few goals in mind: to stay active, enjoy the process, achieve my first pull-up by the end of the year, and improve my handstands. Nic became my trainer, and thanks to his expertise, I nailed my first pull-up within just two months! His knowledge and guidance in handstands were incredible, helping me improve my balance and build strength, all while making it fun. What truly reignited my passion for fitness was the atmosphere at ONI. The team fosters a welcoming environment where everyone feels comfortable, and even the smallest wins are celebrated. Being part of such a supportive community motivated me to keep showing up and push myself in every workout. I'm so grateful for the ONI team for bringing the spark back to my fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: I joined ONI after discovering Calisthenics. Nic is my PT. I highly recommend ONI, Nic and the team. Nic’s passion and experience on Calisthenics is inspiring, the gym has a great vibe and lots of good quality equipment for the type of exercises I wanted to do, and the entire team of trainers is always super friendly! I love this calisthenics journey at ONI. I am getting stronger, having fun and not only recovering from an old injury but also not getting injured again thanks to the paced progressions. I really recommend you give calisthenics and ONI a go. The best thing you can do for your physical and mental health ❤️

Fantastic experience: Went to Oni for a month while I was staying in Wellington. Great gym, had all the equipment I needed and was never too busy at night when went. Other people and Staff were very friendly and Laurent who set me up when I first started was very easy to talk to and had all the answers for any questions I had.

Fantastic experience: Oni Gym is my safe place. This is a private gym with a wholesome culture. Everyone works hard and grinds down. Typically when you touch base with oni you are paired with a trainer. Laurent does this and nails it every time. I'm so very lucky to have paired with G! He's fantastic, however so are the rest of the team there. Whoever you work with they genuinely really care. If you are nervous this is the gym for you! I will see you there!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Wellington hands down! Awesome, knowledgeable and super chill staff, great range of equipment and atmosphere (a lot of niche stuff you wouldn't find elsewhere). Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: A friend recommended Oni when I was looking to find a way to get on top of some injuries and work towards some training goals. I've been training with Laurent for over a year and it's the best investment for my health and well-being — wish I started earlier! Laurent has an amazing eye for detail and knows his stuff. The gym is also in a convenient spot with awesome equipment and vibes. Carsten is also the best sport's massage therapist in town! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve ever been to in Wellington. Supportive atmosphere that makes going to the gym regularly very easy. With personal trainers that offer helpful tips and encouragement.

Fantastic experience: Diego has been my online coach for 2 years now. I have made immense progress in my fitness and wellbeing journey. I highly recommend him. ONI app is a nice addition to reach my goals, it is easy to use and has videos of all exercises.

Fantastic experience: Diego is absolutely great. He has built a program that motivates and challenges me, but keeping in mind mu previous injuries. The app is amazing to keep track of progression and show how each exercise should be performed. Overall, everything is perfect!

Fantastic experience: Working with Nic Boisset as my personal trainer has been a game changer. I have found his sessions diverse and interesting especially when we move away from standard weight training exercises to techniques like hand-balancing and calisthenics. Nic is motivating and encouraging and I cant recommend him enough, especially if you’re looking for personal training with a twist.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Carsten for massage for must be several years now, I am quite the massage connoisseur if I say so myself, and Carsten ranks right up the top in my very picky rankings. Highly skilled, he has the TOUCH and if you get massages you will know what I mean, if you don’t you are missing out! Each massage is a bespoke experience that is calibrated not only to where my body is at but my mind too. Some people are worth their weight in gold.

Fantastic experience: estou fazendo meus treinos com o Diego Salles, a melhor consultoria possível, ele é super atencioso e explica de uma maneira muito fácil de se conduzir o treino, estou muito impressionado com os resultados

Fantastic experience: Exactly what I needed! I’ve got Diego for personal trainer and couldn’t get any better. I’ve been working with him for the past 6 months and the progress and results I’m obtaining are incredible. My workout plan is prepared to fit my routine and is the perfect balance between challenging and enjoyable. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I just spent 6 months in New Zealand on a sabbatical: and I spent most of them as a client of Laura Dyson's - with whom Laurent, the charming and smart and kind owner of this gym, matched me as soon as he heard about my a) injuries and b) ... lady problems. I actually don't know the right superlatives for Laura. I have a superb trainer at home in Canada, but Laura is just in another league: an academic researcher in the field; a physio; a nutritionist; a kind and warm and funny soul. She is a verified expert - and she's also just full of good sense and loves learning new things. She got me with a nasty lower back injury from gardening, a wonky elbow from falling and breaking it, and my usual pelvic floor and pain problems. By the time we finished - 3 x training per week, with breaks when I was travelling around touristing - all those problems were MUCH better. Indeed my back was completely fixed: the relief is intense. I had learned to bench press and deadlift (I've gone from novice to beginner in lifting - heading to intermediate, and loving it so much I am sure I will get there!) My aerobic fitness improved along with my strength, I lost body fat without losing muscle - I gained muscle! Best of all, I ended feeling as fit and healthy and confident in myself as I have felt since I was playing lots of sport in my teens. Or maybe ever because been a teenager isn't that fun. Hooray for middle age! Laura: you are an angel. Folks wondering about ONI? DO IT. Brilliant place, brilliant people.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Nic for about 6 months now with a goal to build strength to supplement my yoga practice. He is a super encouraging, thoughtful and intuitive PT who listens to what I need. He thoughtfully gives me space to rest when it makes sense or pushes me just enough when he knows I can do more. I’m seeing progression not only in my strength but also in my confidence as I get closer to my current stretch goal of free standing handstands. I look forward to every session, even the core work!

Fantastic experience: I'm training with Nic. If you're looking for a PT with enthusiasm, who can teach regressions and progressions to help you reach your handstand goals, and who will celebrate all of your progressions with you, get in touch with Nic. He makes learning fun.

Fantastic experience: Really cool gym, well kitted out. PT sessions with Diego Salles, who is fantastic. Have been having sessions with him for a year now and as someone who previously hated going to the gym, I always look forward to my sessions. Diego is super chill and knowledgeable, sessions are an education as well as a workout. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Saw Carsten for a massage last week, great use of elbows to get into all the tight spots. By far one of the best massages I've had in years. He was professional and listened to me.

Negative experience: I had a massage with Carsten a few weeks ago and I wanted to give some honest feedback. He was late for my appointment, the room was cold, he did not bother to do a client form to find out about my health issues, and his bedside manner was unprofessional, rude and arrogant. He launched straight into the massage by using rough elbows along my back, and spent most of the time going back to and vigorously rubbing a painful spot next to my spine. This was actually one of my ribs that I had surgery on years ago, and despite me asking him to either back off or leave it alone he continued to try and release it. I am a muscular guy and I've been to many therapists in the past so I was surprised he was so persistent. Have been bruised for weeks and it has been much worse overall since I saw him. This has resulted in time off work and sleepless nights. Very annoyed and disappointed with the service I received.

Fantastic experience: You can get top notch personal training without paying long term gym membership. The team are professional and super friendly. Working out in the gym feels more relaxed and there are niche equipment (like ski machines and self powered treadmill) that are rare. Enjoying it here.

Fantastic experience: Amazing staff ✨

Fantastic experience: Second floor opening is so epic!! Loving the layout, coffee machine and most importantly the hip thrust station

Fantastic experience: FINALLY a gym in Wellington that has floor space to do handstands!! ONI is a clean, tidy, spacious and professionally operated gym. As a high performance athlete with a background in ballet, Pilates and Ex-Army trained, I appreciate the care ONI takes in ensuring their staff are highly qualified and certified. I have worked closely with Laurent Pang and more recently Alex Buchanan for over 12 months. I am impressed with Laurent's commitment to ONI's staff being regularly upskilled, ONI is a reflection of his high standards. Becoming invincible is inevitable at ONI

Fantastic experience: Central location stocked with brand new modern ergonomic equipment including ski machines. Knowledgable trainers.

Fantastic experience: ONI is honestly the best - as a casual powerlifter I’d struggled with my squat form for a couple of years before finally visiting this gym, and OMG I wish I’d done it sooner! Laurent had several tweaks for me to make, helped me implement them, and I can’t overstate how quickly I’ve noticed the improvements. Hit an all-time PB and even entered my first powerlifting competition! Can’t recommend them enough!

Fantastic experience: Totally recommend the team at ONI to anyone I know! They provide excellent personal training and have a team which are dedicated to you. They're based in CBD Wellington and are a quick pop-in away! - Become Invincible

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever! Oni and their personal trainers are the best in Wellington! My strength, fitness and mobility has skyrocketed by training with their personal trainers. I am active and like to surf, skate and train Muay Thai. Recently I had an injury and I worked with Laurent who has helped me recover quickly, improve strength and also help prevent/minimize future injuries from occuring. He has correctly a lot of issues around my mobility and now I feel amazing and more athletic! His wealth of knowledge is exceptional. I am also loving the gym environment and space there. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: Shout out to my personal trainer Lorena! We have been working together for a year at Oni and it has been a fantastic journey for me. Lorena is really invested in helping me achieve my goals through fitness and nutrition in a non regimented or intimidating way like a lot of gyms and I have seen huge results. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and excellent people! ❤️

Fantastic experience: Came to Laurent after a historic disk injury turned into painful sciatica. My lower back has caused me issues for the best part of the last 10 years, so the sciatic pain was the kick up the arse to sort it properly. I worked with Laurent for 3 months, coming in once I needed exercise progressions. My back pain is now completely gone and I’m able to play sport again pain free. Couldn’t recommend ONI enough. Really nice people and a relaxed environment to train/ learn.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Have been training here with Adam for a few years and seeing great results. Never too busy which is a big bonus.

Fantastic experience: I tried ONI after experiencing ongoing post op back issues. I see Adam who has been awesome, the old body has improved significantly, I'm back playing sport and getting amongst every day life without any issues. Highly recommend Adam and the team at ONI, they have been great.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Lorena at ONI for a while now, and she’s fantastic - thanks to her I’ve gone from being someone who doesn’t feel comfortable exercising or going to the gym to someone who actively looks forward to it every week! I feel like my fitness has improved so much, and even when it’s challenging I know Lorena isn’t going to ask me to do something I’m not capable of, which has also improved my confidence. The gym itself is great too, and the team are very welcoming. I’d absolutely recommend booking in with Lorena at ONI if you’re looking for a new trainer or a new challenge!

Fantastic experience: I've been doing weekly sessions with Lorena for over a year now and it's been fantastic. When I first started I was often getting pain in my lower back. Lorena's programme was specifically designed for me and the pain is completely gone. I'm also now much more confident in myself and my body. I never thought I would look forward to going to the gym but I really enjoy my sessions with Lorena and making progress week after week is so satisfying. I highly recommend Lorena and ONI!

Fantastic experience: Great team and equipment! 5 stars

Fantastic experience: The team at ONI are some of the friendliest, welcoming and knowledgable people you could hope to have along your fitness journey, i recommend them to the fullest, if you want to increase you fitness, rehab an injury or have a goal you want to reach, get in touch with them! - Jai

Fantastic experience: Probably the best personal training venue in Wellington with proficient skilled staff eager to help all age groups and competence levels. I have been training there for over 2 years. Certainly, worth the cost.

Fantastic experience: Oni offer 1:1 coaching, tailored to your needs, with a variety of trainers across multiple disciplines. I've been working with an amazing strength coach who creates programs to help me hit my goals, while factoring in my other activities like mountain biking. Oni don't do long-term contracts, which gives you flexibility to work with them in a way that suits you. I've found this much more useful than traditional 12-month membership gyms.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a fantastic personal training experience with ONI. When I started with Harriet, my shoulders had very limited mobility and there were many basic gym movements I couldn’t do. Harriet has been incredibly patient with my back and shoulder pain while still providing the challenges I need to build strength. Harriet’s attention to detail and encouragement have helped build a positive relationship to the gym and my body. A year on, I am spending most days pain free and am doing movements I thought I’d never be able to do! So stoked to finally be able to squat and deadlift weights without fear of injuring myself. While I still get the occasional flare-up of shoulder and back pain, I feel that Harriet has helped me develop a practice of mindful exercise that empowers me to recover and quickly get back on track with strength building. I would highly recommend Harriet as a personal trainer!

Fantastic experience: I first started my PT journey with Harriet back in 2021 after a hectic time with lockdown, work and study on the back of several years of shift work. I was really nervous to get started, having never been in a gym before and watching my fitness rapidly decline over the years. But, Harriet put me instantly at ease. Her manner is both positive and encouraging. She has worked alongside me for the last few years and it has honestly been life changing! My goal was to feel strong and empowered with my training and I have achieved that and some! I have gone from not being able to squat without pain to squatting over 60kg! From not being able to deadlift to lifting more than my own body weight. And most importantly, from feeling tired and like I can't keep up to feeling strong and capable. I would highly recommend working with Harriet, she is knowledgeable, encouraging and empowering to train with!

Fantastic experience: Laurent and his team are fantastic, kind and professional and the environment is welcoming and friendly. ONI will really help you work toward whatever goals you may have with a wide range of expertise and focus throughout their team and tailored programs. Carsten is also an excellent masseuse, I will certainly return for more deep tissue work.

Fantastic experience: I've been training through ONI for about 18 months now. It's a really nice environment to train in, and is not a "traditional" gym. There are only so many people there at a time, each trainee with their trainer, meaning there's space to breathe, and equipment is available when it's needed. Carl has been really great to train with. He gives me a physical workout, and I give him a cognitive workout with my ever-changing physical capabilities and pain levels. He's always finding ways to adapt moves and exercises to suit my capacity on the day which is really appreciated. Highly recommend ONI and Carl.

Fantastic experience: Incredible space and people. I appreciate how Laurent pairs you with a trainer specific to your style and goal. Actually feel like I'm heard by Oli, he's engaged and cares and I'm excited to go each time. Plus everyone just has fun

Fantastic experience: I love coming here, laurent has helped me from when I pregnant to right now… 10 months later. He he has worked with me through my highs and lows and works our sessions around me and knows when to push me or when to take it little easier. I love coming here not just for exercising but having someone so empathetic listen too and use his outside perspective to help achieve more bite sized manageable goals. I mean everyone there is great, it’s the first gym I’ve been to where I feel comfortable. It’s a great source of self care for me and I love how much they offer to such a high standard and approachable the people and the gym in. Thank you guys for looking after me

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Adam at ONI for about 18 months now and love it. There's always heaps of space to work out in and you're never waiting to access equipment like you might at a big commercial gym. If you're after some training I'd strongly recommending to having a chat with ONI about what they have to offer.

Fantastic experience: I see Oli at Oni, who has helped me get back to progressing at the gym, moving pain free, and dance after a chronic back injury. Oni is a really fantastic studio, with a lot of care put in to ensure the client feels comfortable and empowered in the gym. The holistic/movement approach has enabled me to be more aware of my own movement patterns and for the first time in a long time I've been able to progess all my goals in a sustainable way - reducing risk of burn out and injury. Thanks Oli you are awesome

Fantastic experience: Best functional movement gym in NZ! Laurent and the team are very innovative and are on a mission to help all clients reach their health and wellbeing goals!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend ONI gym more. I have been working with Carl for a year now and he is a fantastic personal trainer. Carl is very easy to get along with and he really invests in you as a person. His focus is on your holistic health (including diet, sleep, stress, etc), not just working you out in the gym. Training with Carl is the right balance of fun and a challenge, and he tailors each session to your needs - whether that be a stretch/ rehab day, or a push. I absolutely love training at ONI - all the staff and clients are super lovely and get along really well. It’s a great atmosphere to train in.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Carl for anyone looking for a personal trainer in Wellington! Carl has a ton of experience and knowledge, and he's great at working with complete beginners too. He makes every session fun, challenging and engaging while tailoring things to meet your needs. He’s got a great sense of humour and sessions with him always have me laughing. I definitely recommend working with Carl if you’re given the chance. Thank you again Carl and the rest of the ONI team!

Fantastic experience: If you hate mainstream Gyms, this could be the place for you. I train with Carl, and as an exercise-phobe I've been pleasantly surprised by how much I've enjoyed working out under his instruction. A small studio style gym, with everything you need - without the gym bunnies and crowds.

Fantastic experience: Best PTs in town
