I completed my Certificate 3 and 4 in fitness, with a passion and drive to help others.
I didn’t know Vu prior to him becoming my mentor, but from day one I was empowered to ignite my knowledge and skills to my fullest potential. Vu opened my mind and lead me onto an amazing journey in understanding holistic personal training to a deeper level.
The abundance of knowledge Vu holds, is shared to full capacity, as he genuinely wants the best for his clients. When in doubt, Vu spends his extra time re-training, re-explaining and re-developing until one is confident.
I feel blessed to have had the opportunity being a student of Vu’s mentoring program, as his zest for holistic health has impacted me nothing short of positive. Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor

Having Vu as my mentor has helped me greatly, his great knowledge and was of teaching far exceeded my expectations. Being able to get hands on experience and pick the brain of a great trainer has helped me progress dramatically as did he a personal trainer. I undertook an interest in becoming a personal trainer as i was fed up with my current day job, it was getting to the point where i was stressed and didn’t enjoy what i was doing anymore. Vu helped open a new pathway in my life as a great mentor and friend.
During the mentoring process i was able to train clients and instruct fitness classes, the response from clients was overwhelming. Being able to help people set goals and watch them achieve them is very satisfying for me. I must say there is nothing better than finishing a training session with clients and hearing how much they are improving their fitness or how close they are to reaching their goals.
Currently i train a few clients regularly and also teach kick boxing classes twice per week. With out the mentoring and opportunities Vu has given me i probably would of never been able to get as far as i have now. For anyone who is interested in entering the fitness industry or needs a great mentor Vu is your man. Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor.

As a previous client of Vu’s, I knew it would be in my best interest to be guided through the complex learning process of personal training under the guidance of his extensive knowledge and experience. Like all things, Vu went above and beyond extending his time and patience to ensure that I was learning and implementing the best training techniques. What I found most reassuring was his genuine interest in my success and his ability to motivate me when I was unsure of myself. Anybody can get a certificate but Vu has put me on the path of establishing myself from the rest.  Personal Trainer

The mentoring experience through AIPT and Vu was definitely the most productive and beneficial way to fast track learning to become a PT. Vu’s dedication to the mentoring program, his passion to pass on his knowledge and his ability to clearly explain and guide us through all aspects of the course was most impressive and helpful. Vu was always contactable for any questions I had and was genuinely interested in how I was going with my assignments and wanted to help as much as he possibly could. Vu’s ability to replicate the theory from the documentation provided by AIPT into practice is what most helped me to learn how to become a trainer. I am now training a high intensity interval training circuit class once a week and have a few clients who I train one on one regularly. I highly recommend the mentoring program for anyone who wants to become a PT as it is a great way to put theory and practice together and give you the support and experience needed to become a great trainer. Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor.

Vu has helped me gain the confidence I needed to pursue my hobby and become a Personal Trainer. He has provided me with the skills and information that has helped me progress further in my course and general life appearances. He has a way of interpreting the information which makes it easy for me to follow and perform. I am currently still studying, doing group classes at VFit Holistic and one on one personal training. I know that if I have any issues I will be able to ask Vu for help and have his support. I would highly recommend this service to others because it is life changing and very motivating. This program is always teaching me something new and I look forward to the new experiences I am going to gain from it. Personal Trainer

After training with Vu for some time, I decided to take the massive step of changing career direction and began my journey pursuing a career in health and fitness as a Personal Trainer. From the minute I decided to take this step to now, where I have almost completed my studies Vu has been nothing short of 100% supportive. Vu continues to provide me with the tools I need to pursue my new career and has given me every opportunity to learn and experience what it is to be a health and fitness professional. Vu has continuously challenged me to further develop my skills and the way he has contributed and reshapes the fitness industry is incredibly motivating and inspiring. VFIT Holistic has provides opportunity and environment that empowers up and coming personal trainers and with full access to Vu as my mentor I am filled with confidence and excitement for the journey ahead. Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Instructor.

When searching for places to do my trainer experience I decided to approach Vu because I really liked his view of holistic and functional training. When I first met Vu I felt like I could open up to him right away. He took the time to listen and get to know me as a person and potential trainer and he encouraged me to ask many questions.
Vu has taught me exclusive exercises, stretching techniques, time management, and he has shared with memany other little cues and tips that I know I will use in the industry. I thank him so much for this.
On top of this Vu has also reminded me about the reason why I wanted to be a personal trainer in the first place. I am passionate about listening to people and supporting them through their health and fitness journey. Vu is sopassionate about training and helping his clients as both apersonal trainer and a friend. The close relationship Vu has with his clients has really inspired me. Vu has helped shape me into an individual and unique trainer that sets me aside from the rest. Personal Trainer

Vu Nguyen of VFIT Holistic has been my mentor during a PT course that I have been doing through Australian Institute of Personal Trainers. Vu has incredible knowledge of his profession and has been Enthusiastic, encouraging and an inspiration, I could not have wished for a better mentor. Vu has installed confidence in me to become a PT which I previously was beginning to doubt, he made the mentor sessions fun and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Vu to anyone as a mentor or trainer and he is an asset not only to AIPT but to the community for providing a fantastic fitness business.

I have thoroughly enjoyed completing my mentoring sessions with Vu at VFit Holistic. Vu has a passion for health and fitness that comes through with his mentoring and is positively contagious. He has a sincere desire to share his knowledge and see his students reach their full potential. Vu demonstrated great attention to detail and a respect for his clients, which from a students’ perspective was an invaluable learning experience. He was constantly challenging and questioning ideas teaching me how to think outside the square and how to provide a successful training experience for the client. VFit Holistic was a great environment to complete my mentoring, with all the trainers being helpful and willing to share their knowledge. It is definitely a place with an upbeat and positive vibe. Personal Trainer

I have studied my certificate 4 in fitness at VFIT Holistic. My mentor was Vu Nguyen.

Before I started coming to VFIT to see Vu for my mentor sessions, I had minimal knowledge about personal training AND I was stuck in the ‘bodybuilding’ mindset. Vu has gotten me to look beyond the ‘bodybuilding’ aspect of fitness, and taught me how to train clients without the use of gym equipment (Eg. Weights, Benches, Machines)
Thanks to him, I am now confident as a personal trainer and can plan workouts without any equipment at all. On top of that, he has taught me about the human body (anatomy), injuries; how to treat them and work around them, how to train special populations and much, much more.  Personal Trainer

My learning doesn’t stop here. I will continue to learn and gain experience throughout my career in the fitness industry, and I have Vu to thank for giving me the fundamentals to personal training.
I would definitely recommend Vu as a mentor for others who wish to get a start in the fitness industry, or as a personal trainer for those who need the guidance to become stronger, fitter and most importantly, healthier.

Vu’s studio, VFIT, is a fantastic space to train and learn. Vu has experienced so much in the industry and brings these highs, lows, mistakes and triumphs to his teaching, studio and approach to fitness, which makes for an excellent learning environment.

As a mentor, Vu is thoughtful, honest, accessible, organised and most importantly, willing to open up all aspects of his studio to students to further their experience and knowledge. It has been a pleasure to be mentored by Vu. Personal Trainer

I recently decided to add a new challenge to my life. With some trepidation I decided to make something I enjoy and have a passion for, into a job – Fitness training. With Vu as mentor, it was very easy to relax and concentrate on absorbing all the experience and knowledge he has to share.   Vu always has time to explain and demonstrate any new concept or exercise.  He is constantly challenging your creativity and quickly gets you in the way of ‘thinking on your feet’.  The example he allows you to experience by observing and/or participating in his PT sessions or classes is invaluable.  Mostly I valued Vu’s easy, upbeat manner and his generosity with time and knowledge.  Thanks Vu!!

I approached Vu who is the owner of VFIT Holistic hoping he could help me out with my personal training program,  as he use to be my Personal Trainer awhile back.  After my meeting with Vu, he was willing to take me on a 5 week mentoring program.  What i liked about being mentored by him was that he was full of knowledge, very confident and willing to give the attention we needed to get us through our course.   I found the experience very enjoyable and learnt a lot from not only the mentoring sessions but the classes Vu allowed us to attend and participate in.  I would recommend Vu as a mentor/ Personal Trainer to those that are willing to work hard and are dedicated and have dreams and goals.

Vu was an exceptional mentor!! His enthusiasm was amazing, and his willingness to share his own experiences was very beneficial for my own training! Vu continually encouraged me throughout my training, and he definitely pushed me to work outside my comfort zones – doing things even I didn’t think I could do! My confidence has definitely grown now, since the commencement of my training! Thanks Vu for your patience and all the opportunities you provided me during my practical training!

Hope you’ve been keeping well, and from my memory, I believe your wife was due very soon (if she hasn’t already given birth), so I hope all goes well with that and I’m sure you’re keeping very busy both with work and with your family!

Thanks again for everything!!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Vfit and learned so much about what it takes to be a great personal trainer. Undertaking sessions there has opened my eyes to a whole new part of the fitness industry in which I hadn’t previously had experience. The trainers at Vfit would encourage clients to use more functional movements, which were effective while also being more enjoyable than most exercises I have seen at other gyms. I was taught about the movement patterns which were used in all exercises and how to apply them to building a session that would help the client to achieve their goals. This was a very different type of session than I had observed in the larger, chain gyms. It’s clear how beneficial this experience has been to my own journey to becoming a personal trainer.

Within the gym there is a culture of fun and dedication, which I enjoyed being a part of for the brief time that I spent there. It was clear to see how the clients enjoyed their workouts and appreciated the extra effort and attention that everyone at Vfit put in. I was impressed at the professionalism of everyone there, and was lucky enough to participate and learn from them in an active, real-world environment.

I’d like to thank the trainers, as well as all the members who helped during my time there. The staff were extremely generous with their time and went beyond expectation to answer any questions that I had, while members were more than willing to lend a hand in the process.

Vu’s teaching was different to how I was taught in high school, I really enjoyed him teaching the Diploma of Fitness course and I have learned a lot through his teaching. He constantly gave us feedback and helped us overcome barriers we may have had by exposing us to it. He was very friendly and taught us in a way no one else can and it definitely helped me along the way of understanding and teaching us little things about remembering things to do with the heart and bones.

I would be more than happy to continue under his teaching in the future if I get the chance.

I will always be very pleased that I had the privilege of having Vu as my mentor for the past 6 months. Vu has the established business VFIT that speaks for itself with regarding what it takes to be a successful trainer and furthermore, he goes over and beyond in his desire for you to learn.

Having Vu as a mentor helped me through the course massively. As a poor self motivator, Vu always made lessons fun and enjoyable to be apart of. As he is very knowledgeable, I was able to pick his brain at anything I wanted to know, from information about personal training or anything life related. Having his own gym were able to gain work experience and have a first look insight into the industry.

It has been a pleasure to be mentored by Vu
