Who we are
Sportif Personal Training was created with a simple belief — that the best results come from great coaching, consistency, and a community that supports you every step of the way.
Founded by Jessica Cross, an experienced personal trainer with over 14 years experience. Sportif began as a small outdoor group / 1:1 personal training programs. Today, Sportif is a boutique personal training studio known for expert coaching, personalised programming, and a strong sense of community. We work with busy professionals, men & women with families who want effective workouts, real results, and a supportive environment where they feel welcomed, challenged, and cared for.
As a working parent herself, Jess understands the challenges faced by busy professionals and men and women with families: limited time, competing priorities, and the desire to stay strong, healthy, and capable for life. That understanding shaped the foundation of Sportif.
Sportif is more than a gym — it’s a place where people train with purpose, build confidence, and stay consistent for the long term.
Our Team
jessica cross
For me, health and fitness has been a major part of my life and from a very young age I have dedicated my time to training for swimming, triathlons, half marathons and bodybuilding events. Training for these events and striving for great achievements has required a high level of persistence, commitment and dedication.
I have completed my Australian Institute of Fitness Master Trainer Cert III & IV. I am dedicated to continuing my education, to not only improve my knowledge and my own training, but that of my clients’ training and lifestyle goals.
