About Us
The hardest part is walking through the door
Our Approach
Classes are dynamic, focusing on core strength, cardio, toning, and flexibility through a diverse range of activities such as Boxing, Kick Boxing, Free Weights, Kettlebells, Swiss balls, Resistance Training, and Circuits.
Located in Blackburn South, we offer training in parks and sporting grounds, as well as at a dedicated area studio.
Whether training alone or in a group, our program accommodates your preferences, including the option for our trainer to come to you.
Prior to your first session, a fitness assessment will gauge progress and set goals for your fitness journey. Regular attendance at Defy Limits Training sessions, coupled with our personalised exercise program, ensures optimal results and facilitates a sustainable exercise routine for a healthier lifestyle.
“Finally, A Fitness Culture Where Everyone is Welcome.”
We pride ourselves on fostering a fitness culture where everyone is welcome, regardless of their age, fitness level, or background. Our inclusive environment is designed to support and uplift every member, creating a sense of belonging and community.

Real People. Real Results
We are proud to have clients from all over Melbourne. Most of them have joined Defy Limits through word of mouth and almost anyone who has ever trained with us become a return customer.
Please take a moment to read the testimonials from participants who have taken part in our fitness programs.
“I wanted to continue with my training after I fell pregnant with my third child. Laurie knew exactly what I was able to do throughout the different stages of my pregnancy, and modified my exercises during the sessions.
But what was great was that I still felt part of the group, and wasn’t just forgotten because I had specific restrictions. He spent as much time with me as every other person. His knowledge of what would and would not be good for my body and the baby was exceptional. As with my first two children, I would occasionally have pregnancy-related joint or muscle pain, and was able to talk with Laurie about these and he gave me stretches and exercises to help me. I trained with Laurie for most of my pregnancy, and my recovery from labour has been amazing and, I believe, mostly attributable to keeping as fit as possible in the lead up to birth. I would definitely recommend Defy Limits training and I look forward to getting back into it soon!”
“Because of Laurie, I have gone from a very overweight couch potato, to completing the 10km Melbourne Marathon, in which I managed to walk and jog in an hour and 19 mins. I am so grateful to you for giving me this experience. I have never met anyone before who shares the same passion for success, health and well being. Its amazing how my student goals have become my teacher, Laurie’s goals. He genuinely wants me to achieve, the very best that I can be.
Laurie, not only puts us through a fitness programme, but he educates us about various exercises, and low cost equipment ,that meet each of our individual goals. He knows exactly where each one of us is at emotionally and thus, just seems to know how hard to push us. So he is challenging our mental blockages at the same time ,which I have found has been enormously beneficial as my negative self talk is beginning to shift. There are no excuses…….face the challenge and just do it.
“Joining DefyLimits has been a life-changing experience for me, and a huge part of that transformation is thanks to Laurie, my incredible trainer.
From the moment I walked through the door, I felt welcomed and supported. Laurie’s expertise, dedication, and genuine care for his clients sets him apart. He crafted a personalised workout plan that not only challenged me but also kept me motivated and excited about my fitness journey. With Laurie’s guidance, I’ve seen remarkable improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall health.
I can’t recommend it, or Laurie, highly enough!”
