Eddie Espinosa

Eddie opened The Hunt in 2016 as a place where people would feel comfortable and confident to push themselves to achieve their goals. Running both individual Personal Training sessions and Small Group Training, Eddie works with all levels of fitness and is a big believer in designing programs to suit the individual rather than taking the cookie cutter approach.

Don’t be fooled by his boyish looks - with a Bachelor and a Masters of Exercise Science and having previously worked at both sub-elite and elite level sport, Eddie has over 8 years experience in Strength and Conditioning and is excited to open the new St Kilda location. Come down and say hi.

“While I enjoy being active, I've always struggled to maintain a consistent exercise routine. However, training with Eddie these past few years has helped overcome this and I'm now the most consistent I've ever been. His sessions are always varied, so I'm never bored, and I've seen a lot of progression in my health and fitness since training with him. Eddie and The Hunt team have also built a fantastic culture! Everyone is genuinely friendly and welcoming, and I always have a great time when there. If you struggle with consistency and motivation, I highly recommend the team at The Hunt!”

James Shirey

You’d be forgiven for thinking you’d seen him before - a previous winner of the AFL sprint, our resident tall-man is Shirley. Known for his methodical approach, Shirley has spent the past 6 years running both private and group training sessions, and we’re very pleased to have him at The Hunt to head up our Class Training agenda. Under his watch, you’re guaranteed a quality workout with equal parts banter and sweat, and the underlying bonus of always running on time - Shirley’s hidden talent is running workouts to a tee without ever checking the clock.

“Great gym with a great atmosphere! I always feel very welcome and looked after. Jordan Pollard is an amazing PT who has helped me reach my fitness goals and pushes me to do my best every session. Highly recommend.”
