BCHP

Answers

Frequently asked.

Everything you need to know about starting, training, memberships and how we handle injuries — straight answers, no fluff.

How do I get started at BCHP?
Everyone starts the same way, with our $49 Sign-Up Consult. You sit down with a coach, talk through your history and goals, walk the studio, complete your baseline testing and plan your training week. You leave with the app set up, your first classes booked and a clear starting point we re-test at 90 days. Book it on our consult page.
Is BCHP a gym?
Yes, a boutique gym and strength and conditioning studio in Panania. Small coached classes capped at 16, personal training, Mat Pilates, open gym and recovery, all under one roof.
What is the Foundation Program?
Four weeks of everything. Unlimited classes, a weekly infrared sauna, open gym, nutrition coaching through our dietitian-led app, a printed daily tracker and your welcome pack, with the Sign-Up Consult included as your first session. It is the full BCHP experience for $349, and the best way to find out how you fit here.
Do you have lock-in contracts?
No. No lock-in contracts and no sign-up fees. Memberships run week to week with a four-week minimum, debited from a bank account or card of your choice. Paying upfront may earn a discount on selected memberships, just ask us.
What memberships do you offer?
Gold is our most popular: unlimited classes including Mat Pilates, a weekly infrared sauna and open gym access. Around it sit Bronze (open gym and online programming), Silver (three classes a week), Platinum (Gold plus nutrition coaching and a monthly PT session), plus Student, Wellness and our Adolescent Development Program. Personal training memberships are also available. Full details and pricing are on our memberships page.
How big are the classes?
Capped at 16, always. Your technique gets watched every lift, movements are adjusted to suit you, and your coach knows your name and your knee. You get individual attention without losing the energy of the group.
I'm new to training. Are the classes suitable for beginners?
Yes. Classes suit all levels, and our coaches modify movements for injuries, mobility limits or anything else you bring through the door. For your first class, a coach trains alongside you so you feel comfortable with the format. If you would rather build up with one-on-one attention first, personal training bridges that gap well.
I'm a new mum returning to exercise. Can I bring my baby?
Yes. Our 9:15am and 12pm classes are mums and bubs friendly, with bubs welcome on the mat next to you.
I have an injury or I'm still in rehab. Can I train?
Yes, and this is where we are genuinely different. Every BCHP coach holds a university degree in Exercise Science or Exercise Physiology, so sessions are adapted around injuries, post-surgical rehab and chronic conditions as a matter of course. Training around an injury is common here and well managed within your class. For clinical exercise physiology under Medicare, NDIS, DVA or WorkCover, Enriching Health operates from the same building at enrichinghealth.com.au.
What are the class styles?
Elevate is strength and conditioning combined (Monday and Friday). Lift is strength (Tuesday and Thursday). Main Event is conditioning (Wednesday and Saturday). Mat Pilates runs Tuesday and Thursday 6:30pm, Saturday 9:00am, and is included in class memberships.
When can I use the open gym?
Monday to Friday 7am to 4:30pm, Saturday 10am to 2pm, Sunday 7am to 12pm. The full 320m² is yours outside class times, and the coaches around are happy to check your form. Off-street parking is behind the studio.
Can I pause my membership?
Yes. Memberships include up to six weeks of holds per year. Speak with us and we will sort it.
What about teenagers?
Our Adolescent Development Program runs for 11 to 16 year olds, led by our degree-qualified team. Sessions Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 3:45pm to 4:30pm, plus open gym access Monday and Friday from 3:45pm to 4:30pm. Details on the ADP page.
Did you know?
If you train with Enriching Health next door, you receive complimentary access to BCHP open gym and recovery for seven days after your session. One of the things that makes training in Panania feel different.
