Chenayhe Clark
Manager/Coach

Being involved in team sports from a young age Chenayhe thrives in a group training setting. Her youth consisted of high level basketball until recent years where she stepped into the competitive fitness scene and really became committed to performance in the gym. Full of energy and passion, her coaching style ensures every client is building a strong body as well as a strong mind to be able to show up as the best version of themselves in all areas of life and constantly be improving. Her strong desire for team sports sent her into the group training environment fresh out of her fitness qualifications in 2016 and she has never looked back.

 

Starting off back home in Christchurch New Zealand she quickly excelled from part time coach into gym management which landed her over here in Sydney 5 years ago. Chenayhe brings a wealth of knowledge to the 98 Sydney team. Having years of experience as a coach she has also managed multiple fitness facilities where she developed, implemented and continually reviewed operational processes to ensure a premium experience was being provided. No stranger to a growth mindset personally, she applies this professionally where she has turned average facilities into thriving communities seeing growth by almost 60% in less than 6 months simply by remaining dedicated and consistent alongside her team to ensure an excellent standard is maintained. She preaches the same in the gym when coaching ensuring nobody is left behind and that you are always pushing to be better than the day before. Chenayhe’s not afraid to lead from the front and believes it not only keeps you accountable but ensures you’re consistently striving for excellence.
