ABOUT MARIETTA MEHANNI

I have been a fitness instructor and educator for over 30 years. It’s my life, my passion, and it excites me every day. I can still remember when I started working out. I was surprised to discover that I couldn’t do everything that other people could. I felt embarrassed and like a failure. But I persevered and learned more about my body, and realised that there were many other people with different abilities and skill levels like me.

“Fitness is my life, my passion, and it excites me every day.”

Nobody Is Going To Put Their Hand Up
Nobody Is Going To Put Their Hand Up

Nobody is going to put their hand up in the middle of a group fitness class and tell you they’re experiencing bladder leakage or pelvic floor symptoms. So how do instructors create classes where women can keep moving without having to explain why they need another option?

I love watching your Aqua aerobics, and that you show how to demonstrate at the end of the videos. Thank you for your ideas.

Marietta has been my mentor since 2004. She took me under her wing and helped me transitions from a dying ballerina, to an Instructor, Lecturer, International Fitness Presenter, Mega Gym Country Manager and now I run my own Health & Fitness Business based in Singapore plus Internationally on-line. I could never thank you enough Marietta. You are such a blessing to all that get to learn from you and I am so lucky to have had that for so many years. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You are the best!

I had attended a couple of Marietta Mehanni's presentations at fitness conferences, and was impressed by her breadth of knowledge and presentation skills. When COVID lockdowns hit, Marietta's online workouts and, subsequently, online seminars and courses were a fantastic way to maintain my own fitness and then to learn more skills and s techniques to better serve clients and class members. The Swiss ball workshop and MSwing course have been particularly useful. Marietta is professional, prepared, innovative, delightful and inspiring. Her education and training helped me enormously, and I'm sure my classes and PT sessions have been enhanced.

Being part of this group has helped me in preparing my class plan as a new instructor. Some great ideas from not only Maria, but other members of the group.

I’m So happy to subscribe to Marietta’s virtual workouts - every Session Has been very unique and challenging I love the variety as no session is ever the same I’m actually blown away by how much creativity goes into the sessions and just how powerful & well thought out each Workout is I’m noticing results already after only a month of doing Gym stick Sessions! In particular I’ve noticed just how much stronger I am in areas such as core and arms ,& also my posture and balance have improved And I’m a lot more conscious of how I move It feels so good to be getting fitter and stronger again Her delivery is very professional as is her intricate knowledge of exercise science…….. the classes are fun and funny!🥳 For me, this is far more effective and enjoyable than going to a gym I’m really looking forward also to trying other things such as M swing and step aerobics!! I absolutely thoroughly recommend these workouts to everybody Thank you for your amazing work, Marietta

I joined the aqua mentoring group in June this year, after reaching out to Marietta. Wow! It's such a fabulous resource. I then purchased the 2025 H2O Conference and over a few weeks I watched it. Again, I incorporated Marietta's ideas for the kickboard (being our groups least fav. piece of equipment). They enjoyed it much better and it was the first time I'd used them in my workout plan. I also used ChatGPT for the 1st time. Thank you for putting these conferences on. I look forward to actually participating in a virtual conference live some time in the near future.

Marietta Mehanni is an exceptional instructor and Master trainer who truly embodies the spirit of mentorship and support. I recently completed the Gymstick H2O workshop and accreditation with her, and it has been a transformative experience. Marietta's guidance has been invaluable, enabling me to deliver Gymstick H2O demo classes at various pools. Her encouragement and constructive feedback have given me the confidence to step out and share my enthusiasm for Gymstick H2O fitness method with others. She goes above and beyond to ensure her trainees feel supported every step of the way. Her workshops, both in-person and online, are engaging and informative, making them accessible to everyone. I think, we are truly fortunate to have someone of her caliber in Australia. Marietta’s enthusiasm and expertise inspire not only me but countless others in the fitness community. I can't thank her enough for her mentorship and encouragement—she has made a lasting impact on my journey as an Aqua Group fitness instructor.
