Whether you are looking to improve your fitness, your health or your happiness, Active Merri-bek can help you.

We offer a range of memberships to suit everyone, saving you money and offering great benefits. Our memberships include aquatic memberships, memberships for youth and memberships for adults. We also offer a membership that gives you universal access to all of our centres.

When you become a member, our trainers will speak with you about your goals and the results you want to achieve. They'll then tailor an individualised training program to suit your needs. Our gym staff can customise programs for people of all levels of ability and fitness. So whether you're a beginner, a senior, a gym regular, or require injury rehabilitation – we'll be able to help you reach your goals.

We encourage you to have your program re-assed by our staff every six to eight weeks. Continue at your own pace and change your program when it suits you!
