The best gym I’ve ever joined! As someone new to Melbourne, I was searching for a place that felt like a real community — and Rare Breed is exactly that. The coaches are incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you improve in both boxing and strength training. The vibe is unbeatable, the energy is motivating, and the recovery facilities are next level. Couldn’t recommend it more! 💪🥊

This is by far the best gym/boxing/recovery/coffee smoothie gym I have ever been to. Sensational facilities accompanied with great staff makes it a wholesome one stop shop for all that you need in your fitness journey. Always clean, always greeted with respect and motivation gearing you up for the class you are about to endure. The ice baths every morning complimented with a training session at 5.30am has done wonders for my mental health. Highly recommend this gym

The best gym in South Melbourne / Port Melbourne.

There is a new functional area and plenty of cardio machines. From the front desk through to the gym floor it’s difficult to fault, reasonable fees and free 7 day trial.
