Personal Trainer Bella Vista — Private Coaching at Focus Health & Fitness
Bella Vista has always been at the heart of what we do. Focus Health & Fitness was built in this community, and for over 30 years we’ve been coaching Bella Vista locals who want more from their health — more strength, more energy, more confidence in how they move and feel.
Our private studio is at Norwest Business Park — minutes from Bella Vista — and our approach is personal, structured, and built around your body, your history, and your goals.
Who We Work With
We work with three types of people, and you’ll likely recognise yourself in one of them.
The Rebuilder You’ve had an injury, a health scare, or a long break from exercise. You want to get back to feeling strong and capable — but you need a coach who understands how to work with your body, not push through it. Our post on how strength training helps prevent injuries explains exactly how we approach returning clients.
The Intelligent Beginner You’re motivated and health-conscious — you just haven’t found the right structure or the right coach. You want to understand why you’re doing what you’re doing, not just follow a plan someone handed you. Read our guide to functional fitness — it explains the approach we take with every new client.
The High Performer You’re already active but want to train smarter. You’re in your 40s, 50s or beyond and thinking about longevity — staying strong, mobile and healthy for the decades ahead. Our philosophy on movement as medicine drives how we program for this group.
If you recognise yourself in any of these, we’re probably a good fit.
What Makes Focus Health & Fitness Different
Private studio, not a commercial gym. No crowds, no noise, no waiting. Our boutique studio at Norwest Business Park is minutes from Bella Vista — close enough to fit into your week without the chaos of a commercial gym.
A whole-person approach. We look beyond what happens in the session. How you move, how you eat, how you sleep, how stress is affecting your body — all of it shapes your results. Our holistic approach to stress and energy is built into every program we write. This is why our clients get lasting change — not just a few good weeks.
30 years in the Hills District. Ryan holds a Bachelor of Health Science and has been coaching this community for over 30 years — many of his Bella Vista clients have been training with him for a decade or more. Maja brings 20 years of experience and a coaching style that’s warm, perceptive, and genuinely personalised.
Programs built around you. No two clients at Focus train the same way. Your program is designed around your body, your goals, and your life — and it evolves as you do.
What Our Clients Say
“I have been training with Ryan for over 15 years. He understands me and my capabilities more than I do and tailors my workouts accordingly. It has become an important part of my life as I have moved through my 40s, 50s and now into my 60s with a variety of challenges along the way. I feel fitter today than I did in my late 30s.” Gary Dickson
“After a traumatic compound fracture of my femur in 2014, I was on the roundabout of surgeries with no real improvement. After ten years and some six surgeries, the surgeon advised I could go back to training. Ryan listened to me and tailored fitness training to my needs. I am now on the road to making the improvements I had been wanting for the past ten years — recovery, balance and strengthening my leg.” Vanessa McGibbon
“I have been training with Maja for 10 years. She has always been marvellous — dedicated, reliable, always working to high standards. That care has extended to tailoring programmes leading up to and following my heart surgery, including nutritional advice. She is a treasure.” Janet Fitzgerald
“I began training with Maja and Ryan more than 10 years ago at the age of 58. I highly recommend them both for their knowledge and focus on personalised training programmes. Thanks to them I feel much fitter and healthier than 10 years ago when I first met them.” Mark Bennett
What We Help Bella Vista Clients With
People come to us from Bella Vista for different reasons, but these goals come up again and again:

- Recovering from injury or managing conditions like back pain, arthritis, or osteoporosis
- Training through perimenopause or menopause with an approach that reflects what’s happening hormonally
- Getting consistent for the first time — with real accountability and a coach who pays attention
- Improving mobility, posture and movement quality after years at a desk or an extended break
