What Is Semi-Private Personal Training and Why Is It So Effective?

If you’ve ever felt like 1-on-1 personal training was too expensive or group training too generic, semi-private personal training might be exactly what you’re looking for.

At 4D Gym in South Melbourne, we specialise in semi-private personal training—where expert coaching meets affordability and community.

What Does “Semi-Private” Actually Mean?

Semi-private training refers to a training session with a small number of clients (typically 3–4), each following their own customised program under the guidance of a personal trainer.

It’s not a class. You’re not doing the same workout as everyone else. Instead:

  • Each person works on their own individualised plan

  • The trainer floats between clients, coaching, correcting, and progressing as needed

  • You get the same attention to technique and detail you’d expect from private training—without the price tag

Why We Prefer Semi-Private Over 1-on-1

Let’s be honest—most people don’t need someone standing over them every second of their workout. What they need is:

  • A structured program that works

  • A coach who ensures they’re progressing

  • A schedule that keeps them consistent

  • A price point that’s sustainable

That’s exactly what semi-private training delivers.

Our group and private personal training models blend efficiency with individualisation. It’s how we help clients get stronger, leaner, and more confident—without breaking the bank.

The Results Speak for Themselves

Because you’re on your own plan, semi-private training suits almost every goal:

  • Muscle gain and strength development

  • Fat loss and body recomposition

  • Injury prevention and movement correction

  • Mental health, stress reduction, and routine building

We’ve seen clients from all walks of life—busy professionals, parents, retirees—thrive in this environment. They stay longer, train more consistently, and build lasting results.
