A Bit About Me
Kia Ora
My first taste of exercise started in a small country town in NZ, where my sisters and I had nothing else to do but go outside and play, Jump Ropes, Climb Trees, Ride Bikes and Play Sport .
I went on to play social and representative sport in Rugby Union, Rugby League, Touch Rugby, and Softball.
I’ve started working in the fitness industry in NZ and was one of the youngest aerobic instructors in NZ (16)
I travelled aboard to work in the fitness industry , UK , Ireland and Greek Islands and Australia .
I care deeply about member's, and people and there’s nothing of more value to me than helping somebody go through an experience that makes them happy, confident, and strong.
Getting fit mentally and physically isn’t easy, it takes work and time, my passion is to encourage healthier lifestyles which builds healthier communities.

You take the time to get to know the person who you are working with which is rare!
Also listening to me in what I need and shaping options for outcomes that fit with how my approach to work and exercise play off one another is fantastic! Also taking the time to show and confirm the correct technique along with what early warning signs are for not getting this right or what I need to understand where failure is (i.e. no gas in the tank).
I’m an advocate and talk up what you have done with me and the value you add to the health and well-being of staff in Brisbane! Keep up the awesome work.

Shaun’s got some magic of his own . He transformed me from unfit to fit in a blink of an eye. Highly recommended.

Shaun’s classes provide the opportunity to focus on my own well-being as I’m not in a position to attend the gym/classes at the Brisbane Centre. They have also created a strong camaraderie that translates to our work environment and helps to develop a feeling of being in it together.

Shaun helped to facilitate Air Services Australia's participation in the Queensland Corporate Games. Across their two locations, nearly 180 people participated in the games across the weekend. This is a great reflection on Shaun's energy, commitment to promote wellness and support his clients and gym members above and beyond.

I enjoy attending Shaun’s lunch time fitness classes as they provide a variety of good core fitness exercises, for all levels, in a fun environment that helps keep me in reasonable shape (for an old man) It also helps justify a cool and refreshing ‘Frosty’ on Friday night.

Shaun runs a great set of classes at DaVinci that are well attended. Being able to attend a structured class or two each week in the work place is a very convenient way to compliment other activities we all do outside work like riding or playing sport. It’s also fun to spend the time with other work mates who enjoy getting out and exercising each week. I certainly look forward to it.
Daniel Schutz
I find the classes a great way to keep my fitness up for all the sports I play, and the group environment and friendly atmosphere make it an enjoyable experience compared to working out by myself.
Brett Milligan
I have attended your Da Vinci fitness classes for a number of years now, and you continue to provide me with a healthy balance of challenge, motivation and banter during these enjoyable and often very humorous sessions.
These classes continue to provide me with an accessible, practical and convenient way in which to break-up my sedentary work week, network with a like-minded, diverse cohort and keep me moving (even at my age). Thanks!

The DaVinci exercise classes with Shaun are a fun group environment and excellent exercise. The casual drop-in approach lets staff attend when work priorities permit and it’s great to meet people from different areas of the organisation.

Shaun was the PT appointed to me by the Biggest loser show. I was paired with Shaun for around 3 months, however I was back in the real world: the one where I had to work full time, had to manage this ongoing custody battle & fight away the depression demons, oh & train 3 hours a day. Probably one of the toughest things I had to manage, but what surprised me was the relationship we formed, it wasn’t just about fitness, but it was real holistic care; training, a shoulder to cry on, someone to keep me strong when I was weak, & trust me I was weak so many times.
Shaun sums up for me what a perfect personal trainer means: to get you to a point where you are strong mentally & physically.

I have really enjoyed attending your classes and having you at the gym. Your approach to fitness is very practical and very healthy. You push us to work hard at the gym and always help us achieve our goals and our best fitness levels. I really enjoy how you encourage healthy fitness and eating lifestyles, but you allow us to treat ourselves every now and then as part of the healthy lifestyle!
I have never really been a person to train with an instructor, but I absolutely love your classes!
Thank you for everything Shaun! You are an absolute legend!!!
