OUR VALUES

 - Strength in Freedom - Freedom in Strength - 

STRENGTH

"Why are we so obsessed with strength that you can measure, rather than strength that you can use" Verne Gambetta.

​

We believe in creating strength to use in life and sport, not measured with numbers in the gym environment.

​

FREEDOM

In freedom we find strength and in strength we find freedom; freedom to explore all aspects of life and sport.

​

INDIVIDUALITY

We appreciate that no two members are the same, so why should we train them the same? You will not find any cookie cutter programs here! 

​

EMPATHY

Our promise to you is that you will be met with empathy where you are at today. 

​

COMMUNITY

We believe in the social bond that community delivers. We know that social connection is one of the most important aspects of the human existence. 

​

EXPLORATION

You are the expert of your own body, we invite you to explore with movement, play and breath.

OUR STORY

Integrate Fitness had its humble beginnings in 2016 offering outdoor bootcamp classes at Victoria Park in Daylesford.  We would set up for our morning sessions in the dark, delineating a section on the football oval with cones and four battery operated floodlights. All equipment was lugged around in the back of a little blue Mazda 2. 


After three years of training outdoors; rain, hail or shine; we were fortunate enough to move the winter sessions indoors to the Daylesford Table Tennis Association's shed. This period saw much less lugging of equipment and more huddling in front of the heaters prior to classes.


When the world changed in 2020 our incredible team bounced between loungeroom Zoom workouts during lockdowns, to outdoor training, to socially distanced group training and back again. After two long years, we have come out the other end stronger physically, mentally and emotionally. We are forever grateful and supported by each individual in our community.

​

As a result of such a strong community, thrilled we have the strength to move into a fixed space where we can explore everyone’s capabilities more fully and create more, long lasting memories.


For our established community there are a few exciting surprises, for our new friends you will find a welcoming home to explore your potential.

ABOUT ME

Beth Whiting - Founder, Integrate Fitness

The world of health and fitness wasn’t my first love. I spent fifteen years as a Production and Stage Manager for theatre, music festivals and events. After a decade of touring for months on end I decided that I needed to take control of my fluctuating fitness levels and waistline. What started out as a personal journey to educate myself transformed into a glorious new career.  

 

In 2017, three months pregnant, I said goodbye to my fulltime job at the Melbourne Festival to grow my little business before giving birth to my beautiful boy. 

 

I have spent more than a decade nourishing my thirst for knowledge, having studied with some of the most prestigious health and fitness education facilities in the world. I have been fortunate enough to have been mentored by world-class coaches in the areas of personal training, business, nutrition, mindset, movement and kettlebell sport coaching. 

 

Over the past two years I have observed the wide-reaching affects that the Pandemic has had on people mentally, physically, and emotionally. It has become increasing evident that our role as health and fitness professionals can no longer be isolated to the physical realm for, we cannot promote growth in any of these aspects of our lives if there is no alignment between them.

 

My dream for Integrate Fitness has always been to create a warm and welcoming environment where people feel comfortable to explore and find the light inside… 

 

A little story about reigniting the light within me; after having a child I felt as though I had lost myself for a short while. I had lost the time for my own workouts which I realised I relied upon just as much for my mental health as my physical health. One small meltdown later and a very supportive husband, I took back control – I engaged a coach and decided to try something so far outside of my comfort zone – compete in Kettlebell Sport. My coach asked me what my goal was, to which I responded, “to make the Australian Team”. Even though at the time I had no real understanding of what that goal stood for, or what it took to achieve; it lit a spark inside of me. Since that day, I train kettlebells religiously three times a week.

 

I have competed in numerous State and National Championships as part of Girevoy Sports Australia. I have qualified to represent Australia as part of the Australian National Kettlebell Team in 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. I have achieved the rank of Candidate Master of Sport in the 20kg One Arm Long Cycle 10' and 30' events and the 20kg Military Snatch. I have represented Australia at the WKSF World Championships in Hungary in 2023 where I won several medals. My most proud moment was receiving a World Record at these Championships for my 30 minute one Arm Long Cycle lift.

 

So I ask you….How can I help you find your light?
