About Miriam.

Hi, I’m Miriam Benton, a Personal Trainer, Exercise Nutritionist and AIPT Mentor based at Goodlife Health Clubs Holland Park. 

I have been working in the industry for ten years and as an AIPT Mentor since February 2022. As a child, I grew up all over New South Whales and found my passions in Kickboxing and music.

What inspired you to get into the Fitness Industry?

I became inspired when I realised what this industry does for people. I was working a desk job and found no real reward beyond the paycheck. That wasn’t enough for me. I wanted to help people change their lives. What better way to do that than within an industry I have a passion for?

What do you love about your job?

I love showing those I train new ways to achieve their goals. Whether that’s introducing a new exercise or adjusting the way they currently do things. It’s rewarding to work with them and help them reach new heights.

Why did you partner with AIPT?

I’ve been in this industry for a long time, so when the opportunity to partner with AIPT was offered I saw something fresh. I wanted to try something new. Now I’m not only working with my clients, but I’m also working with students and other industry professionals. My advice, “Just do it. Stop procrastinating.” If it’s something you want to try, don’t sit on it. Get in and get involved.
