18.01.2022 WELCOME BACK! We are so proud of each and every Active Live family member who has stayed committed to training throughout lockdown, many achieving truly special things. Like Helen, who led her local trio of AL sisters Kate and Tania, to meet up outdoors in Coogee every morning for our daily workout (even adding cheeky workout finisher sets...we've created a monster ) Like Gael, who even whilst caring for her 2yo granddaughter as her daughter gave birth during iso, managed... to keep up training with her husband John. Even after 15 years of training with us, we are still so impressed by you both and grateful for your unwavering loyalty. Would you believe they travel from Inner West to Bondi Junction to train with us? Like Kev, who encouraged his whole family to try his beloved Damien Kelly workouts whilst in lockdown together, and then personally lost 4.5kgs in the process #RESPECT Like Nicole, who committed to her daily training amongst a busy corporate role - rain, hail or shine, always with enthusiasm and a big smile on her face Some of our members even took a break, and that's OK too! And now, we come back to our fun studio to start again, doing what we love and appreciating our workouts more than ever. It's hard to describe the Active Live spirit. We all share a very special community bond. Everyone has a story, and whatever it is, we all support each other to FEEL our very BEST. WE ARE FITNESS PEOPLE, FIRST. YOUR HEALTH IS ALWAYS OUR FIRST PRIORITY. WE BELIEVE THAT OUR THRIVING COMMUNITY ALL STARTS WITH INTEGRITY. BRING ON THE REST OF 2020

14.01.2022 FAST FACTS: Based on latest study of 387k adults, the fitter are far better offWe may not have a Covid19 vaccine yet but there is something you can do to prevent the severity, should you be struck down by the disease - heaven forbid! Get fitter & stronger. There are a numberof reasons why thisis the case but in short, the deleterious effects (i.e. chances of hospitalisation) of Covid19 are more severe when you are overweight or have cardio-vascular disease, both of which a...re positively mitigated by your fitness. Also interestingly, studies show the adverse inflammatory response to the virus may be worse for those who don't exercise. So, even in lockdown, shut down or slow down, we must stay focused on staying in great shape.

CONGRATULATIONS on your incredible success so far In Sue's words: "In total, I lost 20kg in about 7 months. Other than cutting my portions in half, I could not have got the results without the great classes at Active Live. I started with only strength classes, then eventually added cardio. Other than weight loss, my biggest achievement has been just getting fit. I feel stronger than ever before."

Those who stand out have a special combination of passion, knowledge, authenticity, drive, and are willing to constantly share, ask and learn. Philip Nolan is one of them. We are so incredibly proud and honoured to celebrate Phil's well deserved award, voted #1 Class Coach from hundreds of fitness, yoga and pilates studios in Sydney, by the industry's leading class reviewer (source; ClassPass Australia/NZ). This win is based on thousands of reviews and votes, so it's a truly amazing achievement. Grab a cuppa and WATCH NOW, as Phil shares: * What it means to him, to be voted #1 Class Coach in Sydney * His journey through the fitness industry in Ireland and Australia * What motivated him to become an Active Live Coach * How he went from being average to amazing, through Damien Kelly's education system * The difference between coaching at other gyms Vs. Active Live * Where he sees his future in the fitness industry We agree that Phil is an exemplary coach who always strives to learn, grow and reach his potential. This award is testament to Phil's popularity & professionalism. CONGRATULATIONS Phil Nolan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkKEaNRvHrA

07.01.2022 So grateful for this recent Google review " ACTIVE LIVE is fantastic - the workouts, the trainers and the community are consistently A+! It is evident that not only does Damien know his stuff but he has built a business model based on clients success rather than just aiming for numbers through the door. Whilst I have have been to other gyms where there are some good trainers, the consistency of high quality trainers is testament to the high expectations Damien place...s on his employees. Having recently tried doing sessions at home during self-isolation, it has become glaringly obvious to me how much the trainers and the community at Active Live lift my intensity at each and every session. The other stand out for me is how each session caters for such a diverse group of people - from the injured to the elite and young to the less young - the sessions are written in a way that allows each person to push themselves to their own limits in a safe and encouraging environment. I would encourage anyone to give Active Live a go. I suggest at least a 2 week trial so you can experience the variety of the work-outs and quality of all the trainers." See more

07.01.2022 Papa Will & Lil Mila Our home workouts are awesome for the whole family after all, kids are great motivators! We'd love to know - who do you train with at home?

06.01.2022 COVID SAFE Each and every member gets space and sanitised equipment, to take away any stress about coming to the gym. We want you to keep training hard and getting stronger, no matter what! Please take a minute to refresh yourself on our important studio etiquette: If you are feeling unwell, please do not come to the studio. Practise social distancing at all times. This includes before the workout whilst waiting outside, on the stairs, as you enter the workout area and... exit the studio. Have your temperature checked upon entry. Clean and sanitise all equipment thoroughly BEFORE and AFTER every use. Bring and use a full sized towel. Minimise use of communal areas such as kitchen, water fountain, bathrooms and showers. Stay in your designated workout square, whenever possible. No high fives, hand shaking and other breaks in distancing. Thank you for your help with this. If we can stay vigilant and look after each other, we can hopefully get through this without any further disruption to studio life. Happy, healthy training. DK
