BFT Mulgrave Operates Group Conditioning Studio at Sandown Park

TrialSession | 19 October 2026

BFT Mulgrave, located at 43 Geddes Street near Sandown Park, officially opened its doors to the public on 17 June 2023. The studio offers a range of group conditioning sessions based on progressive, science-based training programs. The facility operates as an official Hyrox training centre, providing specialised preparation for the international fitness race alongside its standard strength and conditioning curriculum.

The studio, managed by Sidney, follows a structured methodology designed to remove the guesswork from exercise. Members participate in group sessions where the exercises are planned in advance, supported by coaches who monitor form and progress. The programming includes various formats, such as the 9-week Benchmark strength block and the BFT Challenge, which incorporates nutrition plans, body composition scans, and global prizes.

Community and Coaching

The Mulgrave facility focuses on building an all-inclusive environment for residents in the 3170 postcode and surrounding areas. The coaching team, which includes Tahkara, Maddy, Jordan, Angus, Joao, and Gus, provides direct assistance during classes to help participants reach their specific fitness goals. This support extends to the global BFT community, connecting local members with a wider network of fitness enthusiasts.

"I was looking for something that could get me fitter and stronger and holds me accountable to attending. What I found was a super friendly community who just want to get fit with zero judgement. In the last 1.5 years, I have become somewhat of an early bird and fitter than my mid-20s self, and can actually do weights. The trainers have taught me good form and have pushed me to do better. Everyone is just having a good time here!"

Training Programs and Hyrox Integration

BFT Mulgrave has established a partnership with Hyrox, positioning itself as a training hub for the Asia Pacific region. The studio integrates Hyrox-specific programs into its weekly schedule, combining these with existing strength and conditioning blocks. This approach allows members to prepare for high-level fitness events while maintaining a regular training routine.

"If you are like the old me and loved to pay for a gym membership that you WON'T use then this is not the spot for you.. BFT Mulgrave is fun, addictive with the best community and coaches! Everything is set for you so you don't have to waste time thinking about what exercises you are going to do.. When you are working out you have the coaches there to assist you every step of the way.. I went for a trial 18 months ago and never left, I am so much stronger and fitter all thanks to T, Gus, Joao, Maddy, Jordy and Avo."

Member Experience

The studio atmosphere is described by participants as supportive and motivating. Many members begin with short-term trials before transitioning to regular group sessions. The focus remains on consistency and accountability, with coaches providing both technical guidance and encouragement during the daily workouts.

"I joined for the 8 week challenge to kick start my fitness again, but I stayed for the community, the accountability, and how good it makes me feel after every session. Huge shoutout to the amazing coaches — Maddy, Tahkara, Joao, Angus and Jordan — who make every session challenging but enjoyable. Love training at BFT Mulgrave!"

Current offerings at the studio include introductory 5-session packs for $15 and periodic open weeks. The facility at Geddes Street serves as a central point for group fitness in the Mulgrave suburb, focusing on functional results and team-based conditioning.

"I have had an incredible experience at BFT Mulgrave since joining last September. What started as a short six-week trial has turned into a regular routine because of the fantastic workouts and the wonderful friends I've made. It is so refreshing to walk into a session knowing the exercises are perfectly planned out for you."
