Thank you Sue! You are one of life’s true treasures! You are such a gentle, thoughtful and sensitive teacher with a wonderful sense of humour and a joy to be around!
I used to hate exercise before I came to you! I’ve tried other gyms hoping no one would notice me down the back feeling like a total clutz!!

My experience in your ChiBall Class, Pilates Class and Friday exercise classes have ALL been so positive.
Thank you!

I am a client of Sue's and have no hesitation in recommending her. Sue has given me the motivation and commitment I need to achieve my fitness goals. Attending a weekly session with Sue keeps me on track and focussed to do other fitness work on my own. She is friendly, approachable and passionate. Her professional knowledge and dedication to me is very reassuring and Sue always makes a positive difference to my day.

It's easy to make up excuses not to exercise but training with Sue makes that unnecessary. Her group sessions are dynamic and fun, whether with people you know or with people you soon get to know. We work hard but have a laugh too. I have trained with Sue for six months in a group circuit class, in which she always ensures we are exercising to our capabilities as well as toward our individual goals. She's always found an alternative exercise when I have to confess to yet another injury or sore spot. I highly recommend Sue's group exercise sessions and look forward to continuing to work out with Sue.

Sue is a Godsend. Not only am I now exercising after a lapse of 15 years or more, but I am actually enjoying it. I am spreading Sue's virtues to whoever will listen. In the few sessions I have done, the classes have all been slightly different and I've lost 1.5kg which I have been battling to do for too long. Thanks Sue

After my first evening ChiBall class I had the best sleep I've had in a couple of years. I found the class to be totally relaxing and rewarding. It went beyond a good night's sleep as the following day I felt extra energised, centred and ready to take on the world. I look forward to feeling the benefits of my weekly ChiBall class - thanks for sharing it with us Sue!

I regularly attend Sue's circuit classes and occasionally I top it up with a ChiBall class. Last week whilst at home, I pulled a muscle in my back. This pain combined with the difficulty I was having with associated breathing difficulty was giving me every excuse to stay at home and miss the ChiBall class that night. I only went along becasue my teen daughter was insisting we go, but I'm so glad I went along with her - by the end of the class not only was I feeling wonderfully relaxed, but my pain had gone completely! I was really surprised as I wasn't expecting the ChiBall class to have that effect as I was just hoping to loosen up. So to be pain free afterwards, go home to have a deep sleep that night, plus also feel fabulous the following day was a great bonus. Thanks Sue!

I expected the Reiki session to be relaxing, which it definitely was, but I also had some amazing results within the first week - sleeping better, feeling more relaxed and this morning I woke feeling really positive feelings about the future. Most importantly the health issue I was struggling with has completely ceased. All this after one session!! Thank you so much for being such a kind, generous and intuitive Reiki practitioner. Deb

I have been going to Sue's classes for over a year and I have been really pleased with my progress. The classes have helped with my other sports as they been focussing on strengthening my core. Sue brings great variety to the sessions from boxing to cardio to weight training. Every session is different and I always leave the class feeling that I have had a great workout.

I recently attended one of Sue's ChiBall classes and thoroughly enjoyed the different type of exercise and look forward to doing another soon. The mixture of dance like movement, yoga and meditation makes you feel great and like you could cope with anything. Definitely a class to do if you have finally decided to find some 'Me' time!

Recently my husband was admitted to hospital with a florid septis in his blood which attacked his heart and eventually shut down his kidneys.  He was a very sick man and I was told he may not pull through.  He was admitted on 09 Dec and on 22 Dec Sue Marx offered to do some long distance Reiki.  Up until this point we had not had any good days in relation to my husband. Sue performed the Reiki that evening and this is the text I received from my husband the next morning -

"My night I am happy to say was very good.  I slept deeply for 3.5 hours, got up for 2 hours and went back to bed and slept deeply until 6.45am.  My catheter has now been removed and my Blood Sugars are in the normal range.  All the blood cultures are negative."

What more can I say?!  Sue has been intermittently performing LD Reiki on both my husband and myself and the results have been nothing but positive.  For those that may be sceptical I (we) urge you to open your mind and heart and try it.  I can't recommend Sue highly enough, thank you Sue.

I am very happy to have come across Top Marx. Sue has a very keen sense of where everyone is at in their fitness. Sue is attentive to our safety and exercise form. She cares about incidental things that may be going on in our lives, such as hectic work schedule, and offers strategies in staying healthy and focused. I also really enjoy the comradery of the circuit and Chiball classes I attend. I consider Top Marx an integral part of my personal and professional health.

I have had chronic lower back pain for a number of years now and I was amazed, after attending my first ChiBall class with Sue recently, that for the first time in a long time the pain in my lower back seems to have disappeared – despite lifting my young 2 year-old granddaughter. Sue is a very inspiring, thoughtful and caring Personal Trainer who is always looking for the best way for the people in her class to fulfil their fitness goals. I also attend the Circuit Training classes and find them excellent. Thanks Sue for your ongoing support and encouragement!! I look forward to doing more ChiBall and Cross Training classes with Sue and continuing to improve my flexibility, strength and fitness.

I always feel energised after a PunchFit class. A group class but it feels like your own personal training session. Sue checks individual techniques and suggests improvements. (Unlike another fitness club I trialled, I was not even asked if I had boxed before).

I have been doing a weekly circuit class with Sue for around 7 months now and am still really enjoying it.I love that the class is different every week and the way Sue tailors every exercise to suit the individual. I took part in one of her Punchfit classes and thoroughly enjoyed that too - I was surprised how aerobic it was. I am feeling much fitter and stronger and have lost kilos and centimetres that just wouldn't budge before. Thanks Sue!

I initially booked Reiki with Sue Marx to increase my general energy levels, lift my mood and help my body heal after cancer treatment. The Reiki treatment sessions were amazing. I was surprised by how my body reacted with lots of involuntary limb movements while the energy moved through. I came away feeling energised and everything around me seemed so much clearer. I was relaxed and felt able to cope with anything. Thanks Sue.
