About Joey
Through his knowledge and experience of combat and conditioning in Boxing, Muay Thai, Football (Soccer), and American Football, Joey thrives on creating challenging yet fun workouts in both group and individual sessions. Through his authentic passion for fitness and expertise in various areas of training Joey is able to get the best performance out of clients no matter their experience or skill level.
Whether you want to lace up some gloves and go a few rounds or load up the bar and lift a few pounds, Joey can cover all bases while putting a smile on your face.
Beware, he may be smiling but that doesn’t mean he’ll go easy on you, some may say it’s the smile of a sadist.
Training Philosophy
My philosophy is that fitness should be fun, no matter how strenuous. You’re more likely to sustain a fitness regime if it’s enjoyable. That’s not to say you’re going to spend each workout in constant laughter (although that’s most likely when you train with me), but no matter how hard a workout may seem, the pleasure of success always surpasses the pain of failure.

What does fitness and wellness mean to Joey?
To me fitness and wellness provide mental clarity, they all interlink together and provide a sense of balance to my life. This is why I also aim to instil this sense of balance in my clients as we surround ourselves with like-minded individuals. In addition to this, fitness and wellness provide levels of self confidence, empowerment and sense of purpose.
3 fun facts
1. I am currently an advocate for Optus Sport and recently had the opportunity to coach some of Australia’s Paralympians to deliver content through the Optus Sport fitness stream.
2. I used to be part of a dance team and competed in various competitions including Hip Hop/Street Dance, Jazz and Cheerleading. I’m also prone to busting out a few moves, even mid workout.
3. I used to live in Jamaica & had Usain Bolt as my next door neighbour. While in Jamaica I was running a family owned nightclub that was voted Kingston’s Best Club in 2012.

“Joey is my favourite coach. He has a way of making everyone laugh and feel comfortable. I didn’t know anyone in this class and by the end everyone was supporting and cheering each other on. not many coaches have that ability.”
Kristen M.
“That was a great time. Music and vibes 10/10. Joey also gave me some good tips to help my boxing form improve and the workout format was enjoyable and easy to follow. Liked the mix of combinations, partner pad work and circuit style rounds. Walked in frustrated from working on my website… walked out happy and ready to take on the rest of my day. Thanks Joey. Appreciate you.”
