OUR STORY
BUILT FROM EXPERIENCE.
BUILT FOR THE
JOURNEY.
I'm Patrick Tilley, founder of Element Fitness.
After years of training, travelling, working in gyms and experiencing fitness from all angles, i wanted to create something of my own. Element Fitness is a place built around good training, good people and a community that wants to get grow together.
THE BEGINNING
I KNOW WHAT
IT FEELS LIKE
TO START AGAIN.
In 2024, while travelling in Australia, I had a serious accident that left me with 7 fractures in my spine. For a while, training wasn't about getting stronger or looking better - it was simply about getting my body moving again.
That experience changed my relationship with fitness. I realised how much strength, movement plus the right environment can affect your life.
Element Fitness expanded from that mindset. I wanted to create a place where people could train without the ego, have access to proper equipment, and feel a sense of belonging - whether they're starting their journey, rebuilding after a setback, or pushing themselves to the next level.
That's where Element Fitness started.
MISSION
TO CREATE THE TRAINING ENVIRONMENT I ALWAYS WANTED TO WALK INTO — AND NEVER WANTED TO LEAVE.
VISION
