About us
A better way to find the right trainer.
TrainerNearMe is an Australian-built marketplace for personal trainers, exercise physiologists, pilates instructors, yoga teachers and specialist coaches. We connect you with the right professional — fast, with credentials checked and pricing upfront.
Why we built it
Finding a great trainer in Australia today is harder than it should be. The two real competitors are Google Maps and Instagram — neither of which can tell you whether the person has insurance, a current qualification, or actually works with the goal you have.
Existing directories list thousands of professionals but don't make them comparable, don't verify credentials, and don't help you actually book. We've set out to fix that.
How we're different
- Hand-curated network.Every trainer is interviewed and onboarded by a human. We don't list anyone we haven't spoken to.
- Credential verified. Cert IV, BExSc, MClinExPhys, ESSA, AUSactive, first-aid, public liability — checked at onboarding and at annual review.
- Transparent pricing. Per-session and pack pricing is on every profile. No bait-and-switch.
- You pay the trainer directly.We don't take a booking fee or commission from clients. Our trainers pay us per exclusive lead.
Our standards
We list professionals across four service modes — studio, in-home, outdoors and online — in suburbs across every Australian state. To be listed, a trainer must:
- Hold a current Australian qualification (minimum Cert IV in Fitness, or higher)
- Carry current public-liability insurance
- Hold a current first-aid certificate
- Publish full pricing and what they're actually best at
- Respond to enquiries within 48 hours
