Andrea Arioli

Italian Personal Trainer and Strength & Conditioning Coach based in Brisbane, with 3 years of professional experience across high-performance facilities, physio-integrated studios, and online coaching. Before coaching, I competed professionally in combat sports — WKF World Youth Karate Champion (Jakarta, 2015), Italian Amateur Kickboxing Champion, and former professional kickboxer. I bring that background into everything I do: I understand what real commitment looks like, and I know how to build programs that actually work. I specialise in strength & conditioning and personalised programming for both competitive athletes and everyday adults — including clients over 40 and those managing chronic conditions such as joint issues, disc herniation, and post-injury limitations.

Fitness is truly my passion — I love every aspect of it, from lifting weights, CrossFit, and running, to Pilates, yoga, boxing, spinning, and hiking. Training and helping others discover their own strength and confidence through movement is what motivates me every day.
