Coaching strength since 2019
We built the gym we wanted to train in
Kinetica started as six racks in an old print workshop and one rule: nobody trains without a coach watching. The rule stayed. The racks multiplied.
Our story
From six racks to a community
Our founders spent a decade coaching in big box gyms, watching members pay for access and get nothing else. Most quit within three months.
So we built the opposite. Small groups, written programs, coaches who stay with you for years. No mirrors covered in ads, no rows of televisions, no sales targets for the front desk.
Today Kinetica is 640 square metres, six full time coaches and a few hundred members who mostly know each other by name. The rule from day one still applies to every session on the timetable.
What we believe
Four principles we coach by
01
Technique before load
Weight goes on the bar when the movement is ready for it, not before.
02
Plans beat motivation
A written block gets you through the weeks when you do not feel like training.
03
Small groups only
Eight members per coach is the limit. Quality of attention is the product.
04
Measure, then adjust
Test weeks, logged sets and honest reviews decide what happens next.
