Training that works for real life

Every session is built around you — your energy today, your goals long-term. Mix and match, or let me design the plan.

Pilates

Mat-based Pilates to build core strength, posture and control — gentle on joints, big on results.

  • Core & posture focus
  • Pre/postnatal friendly
  • Beginner to advanced

Yoga

Flow, stretch and breathe. Sessions to build flexibility and calm — the perfect reset for busy days.

  • Vinyasa & gentle flow
  • Mobility & stress relief
  • Morning & evening slots

Functional Fitness

Strength for everyday life — lifting, carrying, climbing stairs with ease. My specialty, and open to everyone: staying strong, steady and independent — and keeping it that way.

  • Strength & conditioning
  • Balance, bone health & falls prevention
  • Gentle 40-minute options

Training that fits around your day

No gym membership, no queue for equipment, no intimidation. Just you, me, and a plan that fits your life — in my private home gym in the Sydney CBD, or at your place.

Feel the difference

Stronger, more flexible, more energised — most clients feel it within 3 weeks.

Stronger for Longer — Active Aging

An 8-week program built around the simple measures researchers link to a longer, more independent life — strength, balance, walking speed and more. All you need is a mat and a resistance band; I bring everything.

Track your longevity indicators

We baseline six evidence-based measures — chair stand, balance, walking speed, mobility, endurance and floor independence — and re-test at weeks 4 and 8 so you can see your progress.

Just a mat and a band

Theraband strength work, balance and falls-prevention drills, and floor confidence — joint-friendly and scaled to you. Program members keep their own band set for daily home habits.

My place, or yours

Two 40-minute sessions a week, one-on-one or with a partner — in my private home gym in the Sydney CBD, or as a home visit. Same session either way; the home visit means zero travel for you.

8-Week Program: $1,120 at the home gym or $1,360 as home visits — 16 sessions, 3 assessments and your own Theraband set. Casual sessions $80 at the gym / $95 home visit.

Samantha Cross, personal trainer

Hi, I'm Samantha

I'm a personal trainer based in the Sydney CBD. You can train with me in my private home gym — quiet, no mirrors, no waiting for a machine — or I can come to you, with everything we need in one bag.

I work mostly with women who want to feel strong without the mirrors, noise and intimidation of a commercial gym, and with people who want to keep doing everything they love — carrying the shopping, chasing grandkids, travelling — without worrying about their balance or their back. That second group is why I built Stronger for Longer.

Every program starts with a conversation, not a fitness test. We work from wherever you are today, at a pace that leaves you feeling capable rather than wrecked. And if something feels off between sessions, message me — you're not on your own between appointments.

FITREC-registered CPR & First Aid Police check & WWCC Fully insured Mat Pilates Yoga Active aging specialist

Every one of those is verified and current on my FITREC profile — you can check it yourself, no need to take my word for it.

This is for you if…

  • You've been meaning to start "next Monday" for a while now
  • You want strength and mobility, not a bootcamp
  • Gyms feel like someone else's space
  • You're managing a niggle, an injury, or just a body that's changed
  • You'd train more often if it were genuinely convenient

Simple, flexible options

One-on-one by default — or grab a friend for duo and small-group rates. All prices in AUD.

Before you book

The things people usually ask me in the lift.

I haven't exercised in years. Is this really for me?
Especially for you. Most of my clients start exactly there. Your first session is a conversation and some gentle movement — no fitness test, no leaderboard, nothing you have to keep up with. We build from wherever your body is today.
How far do you travel for home visits?
The Sydney CBD and the suburbs around it — Barangaroo, Millers Point, Pyrmont, Ultimo, Surry Hills and nearby. If you're a little further out, ask me and I'll tell you honestly whether it works.
Where do sessions actually happen?
Two options. My private home gym in the Sydney CBD — quiet, no mirrors, nobody waiting for the equipment you're using. Or I come to you: mat work needs surprisingly little floor space, and I bring mats, bands and weights.
What does a home visit cost?
$95 for a 40-minute session, or $1,360 for the full 8-week Stronger for Longer program — $15 a session more than coming to the home gym, since it's your travel time I'm saving. Everything we need comes with me. Book a home visit.
Do you train men?
Yes. My Pilates and yoga work is women-focused, but the functional fitness program — strength, balance, bone health, falls prevention — is open to any gender, and plenty of men train with me.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable clothes you can move in, supportive shoes, and a water bottle. I bring mats, bands, weights and everything else we need.
What if I have an injury or a health condition?
Tell me at the intro chat and we'll work around it — that's a normal part of the plan, not a problem. If you're under care for something specific, I'm happy to work alongside your physio or doctor's guidance. If you've had a recent surgery or a new diagnosis, please get medical clearance first.
What's the cancellation policy?
Life happens — just give me 24 hours' notice and we'll move your session, no charge. Under 24 hours, the session is counted. Packs are valid 4 months and I'll never let one quietly expire on you.
How do I pay?
Bank transfer or card. Single sessions are settled on the day; packs are paid upfront and I'll send an invoice with everything on it. All prices are in AUD and include GST where applicable.

Ready to feel amazing?

Your first 30-minute session is free — let's talk about your goals and find a time that works. I only take on a handful of new clients each month.
