Testimonials
“A lack of confidence meant I delayed rejoining a gym for several years until I found Body by Science in Mana. The gym itself is a welcoming, clean, fresh space with a great range of equipment available. I have found Sharyn's advice and personal training invaluable - she always finds the right balance between encouragement and challenge, and her knowledge of nutrition and anatomy and physiology is invaluable. If you are looking for a great gym space and friendly atmosphere you couldn't do better than BBS. ”

“We’ve loved training with Sharyn over the past year. Looking back, we’re both amazed at how much stronger and fitter we’ve become, and it’s been rewarding to see just how far we’ve come.
Sharyn has a wonderful ability to make every session enjoyable while still encouraging us to push ourselves. She really listens, understands what we each need, and tailors our programme to suit us, even adapting it around our travel so we can keep progressing wherever we are.
Her enthusiasm, encouragement, and genuine interest in our wellbeing have made all the difference. We always leave our sessions feeling better than when we arrived. We couldn’t recommend Sharyn more highly.”

“ I have been working with Sharyn for over two years now. I was middle aged and working a very stressful and sedentary job. Perimenopause added to the mix and I'd gotten to the stage where I was the heaviest I'd ever been, and unable to walk more than a couple of hundred metres comfortably. Two years later, Im still very much on my journey, but happier, I've lost a bit of weight and am certainly more physically capable compared to where I started. Sharyn has been just who I needed, fun, adaptable, and challenging. She's aware of lifes demands and while we exercise, we can talk through all sorts, what the exercise does, food ideas, hormones, stress, family events. I wouldnt have lasted this long if she had been any other way, and I know my health and fitness improvement would not be as great without her help. Thanks Sharyn,”

“I joined Body by Science in August 2024 planning to get back in shape after putting on some unwanted weight — I only expected to work with a PT for a few months to learn my way around the equipment. Almost two years later, I'm still training with Sharyn twice a week.
The results speak for themselves: I've lost 8kg of fat and gained 5.5kg of muscle. Sharyn uses Evolt 360 body composition scans every quarter to track real progress, not just guesswork — for anyone who likes to see the numbers behind their training, that data-driven approach is genuinely valuable.
What's kept me coming back, though, is the variety Sharyn brings to every session and the genuine support she offers. That consistency has carried over well beyond the gym: I've since completed the Porirua Grand Traverse and the Wellington Marathon, neither of which I'd have attempted before starting this journey.
If you're looking for a trainer who will keep you engaged, push you appropriately, and genuinely invest in your progress — backed up by real data, not just opinion — I couldn't recommend Sharyn more highly.
I'm genuinely grateful for Sharyn's support — the improvements to my physical health have flowed through to my mental health as well, and I'm excited to keep taking on new challenges with her in my corner.”
