Personal Training at A Tiny Studio

Here, our team of Personal Trainers work together to create an inclusive, supportive environment where you can build strength, confidence, and real progress toward your goals.

I’m Don — the owner of the space — and you’re welcome to book with me or any of the PTs who train their clients here. All of us share the same values, principles, and approach to movement, so no matter who you choose, you’ll get solid guidance and genuine care.

This is your space to grow, challenge yourself, and feel supported every step of the way.

Don

Owner of A Tiny Studio

I am a qualified and experienced personal trainer and I've set up a cosy studio based on the ground floor of Glebe Park Apartments. I provide individual & group PT services specialising in dynamic and responsive programs that help my clients to get healthy, strong and motivated. The space I provide is safe, respectful and discreet so you can feel comfortable in bringing your whole-self to a work-out. 
​
I am a queer identifying native kiwi, for those who dont know and have fallen in love with Australia and its amazing outdoors. I love being active and trying new things which have included competitive triathlons, netball, mountainbiking, tennis, rock climbing, yoga, dragon boating and many other activities. I enjoy keeping healthy and my love of the outdoors helps me keep fit, focused and level-headed.

It is my aroha for an active lifestyle that I genuinely enjoy sharing with everyone that visits my studio.

​Matt 

Personal Trainer - Independent

​Matt has a real passion for helping people understand how to move their body. He's qualified in both psychology and sport science (human movement) and has been training people since 2016.

Matt believes exercise can be fun, challenging or simply used as a tool to help improve your overall health and how you feel. He's played in team sports winning basketball, football and soccer premierships in his home of South Gippsland before being crazy enough to complete an ultra marathon (75km in ~6.5 hours) and an Ironman 70.3 at Geelong (1.9km swim, 90km bike ride, 21.1 run).
​
After a short hiatus from training people for health reasons and to study political psychology, Matt is now ready to help Canberrans move better and feel better.

​Nick 

Personal Trainer - Independent

Nick has been working as a PT and wrestling coach for 15 years. He loves helping people connect to what is already wonderful about their bodies, and giving them new movement tools to play with and master. He works with a wide range of humans- absolute beginners, competitive athletes, people with disabilities, elderly humans, and lots of his fellow queers. He uses weight training and bodyweight exercises drawn from elite athletics, and adjusts them for the individual. He’s also does a bunch of music and performance art and eats a lot of chocolate. 

Nick also provides Progressive Strength Classes - 
Get strong and stay strong in a warmly social, educational and effective group class. Learn the fundamentals of resistance training from scratch, or seek further mastery of the skills you already have. Become more injury resistant, acquire more movement tools, set a foundation for longevity and get great at lifting heavy stuff. Suitable for all physical capacities and experience levels, they’ll be lots of nerds and queers there, people with disabilities strongly invited. 

​Nick operates out of A Tiny Studio as an Independent PT. Inquiries and prices to nickdelatovic@hotmail.com

Charlie

Personal Trainer - Independent

​Hi, I am a qualified and experienced personal trainer and wrestling coach. My best quality as a trainer is listening; every person is unique and I take pride in getting to know how training can help you to meet your goals, and nourish and support your body - so you can do more of what you love in and out of the gym.
As a trainer I can tap into a wide range of sports backgrounds and hobbies: rowing, wrestling, powerlifting, swimming – and pretty much anything else that lets me explore the joy of movement. This wide base of experience helps me understand how to build an exercise program for you that is fun, challenging, and supports your body as a foundation for the life and activities you want.
I offer a free no-pressure consult to people considering working with me, where we’ll discuss what your needs and goals are. You will have a role in shaping the training service you receive, whether you’re looking for a gentle guide into exercise, or extra motivation and structure for more intense training. I offer one-on-one and group training, with personalized add-ons such as progress trackers and take-home exercise plans for those interested in a bit of extra motivation and structure. People of all shapes, abilities, ages, and walks of life especially encouraged to get in touch, especially women and gender diverse humans.
​
If you’d like to know more, reach out to me at cnjamesp@gmail.com to book a free consult. 

Cosmo

Studio pooch and Battle rope supervisor

​Cosmo is the 5 year old studio pooch, very friendly and affectionate. Cosmo will join us on any outdoor actvities and he's in the studio most days. Great for cuddles, warmdown smooches and hugs. 

​Favourite exercise - Battle ropes

A Tiny Studio is most of the time DOG FRIENDLY, the only times dogs are not allowed are when we do group sessions. Due to limited space and for safety we ask that dogs be left at home.
