More Than Fitness — A Community for Body, Mind & Spirit

About - Thrive with Meaning

At AK Fitness Studio, fitness isn’t about chasing numbers. It’s about reconnection — with your body, your mind, and your spirit.

We’ve built a safe, supportive space where every individual feels seen, safe, and empowered to move forward at their own pace.

Our Mission

To create a studio where you can:

  • Reconnect with your body
  • Strengthen your mind
  • Grow through movement and community

We go beyond physical health. Through intentional coaching, structured programs, and a deeply human approach, we support your emotional and mental wellbeing too.

Our Philosophy

True strength isn’t about power or perfection — it’s about the courage to show up with heart.

Our values guide everything we do:

  • Presence over perfection
  • Community over comparison
  • Progress over pressure
  • Connection — with your body, your breath, and others
  • Safety — emotional, physical, and relational

This isn’t just a fitness studio. It’s a place to come home to yourself.

Founder

Amadu KoromaAmadu Koroma is more than a coach — he’s a guide, mentor, and compassionate leader who brings heart and humanity to every session. A former semi-professional soccer player and certified strength coach, Amadu is often described as a therapeutic facilitator, gifted in helping individuals express their inner voice and reconnect with their true selves.

Born in Sierra Leone and raised in Australia after arriving as a child refugee, Amadu’s life story is rooted in resilience. His personal journey through hardship, displacement, and identity reclamation has shaped a unique perspective on fitness — one that prioritises transformation from within.

Amadu has extensive experience working with diverse communities. He has served as a strength coach for South Melbourne FC, a youth coordinator for Brimbank City Council, and a children’s coach for the nonprofit organization OneBall. These roles reflect his lifelong commitment to empowering individuals across all stages of life through mentorship, movement, and support.

His training philosophy is deeply holistic. It's not just about physical performance, but about cultivating self-awareness, emotional safety, and long-term wellbeing. He meets clients where they are — whether they’re recovering from injury, navigating mental barriers, or seeking a deeper connection to themselves. Each session is a balanced blend of structure and intuition, science and empathy, discipline and understanding.

Amadu views every session as a moment to build self-trust. Each session becomes a space for personal evolution, not just physically, but mentally and emotionally. He believes that everyone, no matter their starting point, has the right to feel empowered in their body and supported throughout their journey.

His mission is clear: to help people build lasting strength, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually — through intentional, compassionate coaching. One small win at a time.
