PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
Coach Ben began his fitness journey in 2020 as a group fitness instructor and personal trainer at Trifusion Fitness. His drive for growth and leadership quickly saw him step into management, first as a PT Manager at South Pacific Health Clubs in Hawthorn, where he mentored trainers and helped grow their businesses. His success led to a promotion as Regional PT Manager, overseeing six clubs, before moving into his current role as a full-time Club Manager at Snap Fitness—while continuing to coach his own clients online.
Alongside his management and coaching roles, Ben has developed a strong passion for teaching. He began lecturing at AIPT, running his own campus across three intakes, and joined NHFA in 2024 to continue shaping the next generation of fitness professionals.
With a wealth of lived industry experience, Ben thrives on guiding students to become industry-ready coaches who can create real impact.
