I joined Step into Life ten years ago last month and am amazed at how time flies when you are having fun. I began with the view that I needed to get a little bit fitter but I only wanted to attend toning classes, no cardio.

I walked a lot before joining Step into Life but that was as much...

I often countdown to my next session. After working in a hospital environment all day, it is so nice to be outside in the fresh air training with my trainers and growing friendship groups

I joined the team at Step into Life Fulham Gardens in July 2013. At the time, I was just looking to try something different. I had been wanting to play a team sport again but I hadn’t found anything that had the flexibility of fitting in with working shift work. Step into Life soon became the answer I was looking for. I s...

I joined Step Into Life Mitchell Park in August 2009 to further improve my health and fitness, something I had started 2-3 years earlier with walking, following a health check.

Since then my health and fitness has improved dramatically, along with regaining my long lost endurance running capacity I had when I was...

My journey at Step into Life Albury started 9.5 years ago. My friend called me up at work and she said she'd heard an ad on the radio about a new fitness program held at Noreuil Park and would I be interested in going, I wasn't convinced but because she wanted to go I decided I’d go along too. Don't get me wrong I don't hate ex...

I started at Step into Life Ivanhoe nearly 10 years ago. I didn't tell friends I started Step into Life as I was never into exercise or gyms and didn’t really know what to expect. However, it soon became part of my life. It is now such a habit that if I miss a few sessions through sickness or holidays, I can't wait t...

I joined Step into Life Gawler because my sister was moving to Adelaide from Sydney and she asked me to find this...Step into what??? I asked as I had never heard of it let alone had any idea what it would mean or what it would bring to my life. It just so happened that I found one that was opening in Gawler so I rang to enquir...

I joined SIL in 2002 after a much needed change from the BORING gym routine!!

The idea of training outdoors was very appealing, as was the variety of exercise classes offered throughout the week.

The trainers coordinate the classes with such enthusiasm and passion, and encouraged everyone to push themselves that little bi...

What’s “Awesome” about Mawson Lakes Step into Life is it's members, trainers and the venue.

Without exception we have a lot of fun whilst training. We accept, support and encourage each and every member to aim high and achieve their own goals. To quote Yasmin “We’re a Lean Mean Outdoor Machine.”

Michelle has introduced me to so much, having taught me that I am capable of far more than I ever thought and that anything is possible.

When I joined Step into Life Albury just over 9 years ago, I never realised what a big part of my life it would become. The level of support has been amazing with Michelle (and her assistant trainers) being always willing to help.

Prior to joining Step, I had always been active to some extent but definitely a non-...

Almost 9 years ago a work colleague invited me to join her at a session with Step into Life Albury. It was the best invitation I have ever accepted!

At the time I was working full-time, a wife and a mum to three young children. The only exercise I was doing was an occasional walk or swim. My leisure activities rev...

My name is Michelle Torpy. I started my Step into Life journey in approximately 2003. It was perfect timing to bump into some women out jogging / walking in one of the back streets of Balwyn North. I was intrigued as to their fitness and fun they seemed to be having. My netball years were coming to an end and I was searc...

Step Into Life has provided a constant. A constant time for myself, a constant time to exercise, a constant challenge, a constant group of people to interact with and share some of my joys and sorrows and support them through theirs.

During the 1990s I had a job advising obese people about diet and exercise and decided that I needed to put my preaching into practice in order to be credible. Step Into Life was my practical choice and my journey started at Hawthorn in 1999. My first session was laps of the oval to assess fitness for going out...

Step into Life has changed my life.

I hated PE at school and so was never interested in fitness or healthy stuff. But trying to lose weight wasn’t working with walks around the block. So I decided to give Step into Life a go.

As a fitness novice, Step into Life helped me to learn what all the exercises wh...

I first attended Step into Life supporting a friend, believing that once he had joined officially my job was done. I never intended that nine years later I would still be a member.

When Tony Haochab started at Step into Life Bassendean 4 years ago, little did he know that he would become a serious runner, yet alone be the first to reach Step into Life Legend status in WA.

When did you start? 30/11/2002

Why did you start?

I was putting on weight and needed to make a change. I didn’t know what to do so when I got a flyer in the mail from Step into Life I put it on the fridge to remind that this was something I could do.
