Functional Patterns Newcastle - Mayfield West, New South Wales

Dwayne Mercorella

The guys at functional patterns Newcastle are incredible. They knew exactly how to solve my lower back problems and guide me towards healing a life long issue. Stu really knows his stuff and was very patient when it came to helping me understand how my problem
developed and what I needed to do to fix it. Any time I needed his time he was available in some form or another. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to heal disfunction in the body or get the body working to a ripe old age.

Thanks stu

Stu is a great functional patterns practitioner. He has helped me improve my posture, improve my movement and recover from ongoing issues that I had as a result of a concussion.
He’s very knowledgeable, patient and encouraging. I would recommend him to anybody looking to improve their movement.

Stu is leading the way in Newcastle with the Functional Patterns methodology.
It is by far the only style of load bearing exercise that I would recommend.
Designed to strengthen the body in its most optimal posture. It is corrective and restorative. Helping heal injury and maintaining healthy and wellbeing for people of all ages.

Stu has helped in my recovery from hip surgery & knee replacement when traditional treatment didn’t help. FP has helped me manage & reduce pain & is helping me to improve & maintain my posture, gait, strength- all important issues for someone in their 60s. It’s great for all ages. I highly recommend Stu & FP Newcastle for any physical problems /pain.

I’ve been training at Functional Patterns for a while now, and I can't recommend it enough! Before starting, I struggled with aching knees when running and shoulder pain while lifting weights. Since incorporating their training methods, I’ve seen a significant improvement—no more soreness, and my posture feels solid. If you want to train injury-free and ensure your whole body is working in harmony, Functional Patterns is the way to go!

Matt and myself (Katy) have been doing FP for over a year now and it’s a game changer. Our job is so physically demanding and it helps us feel strong and capable. On a deeper level, FP is a life changing program both physically and mentally. I have had back pain since I was a kid and I’m pain free. Both of us have had huge improvements in posture and body composition and it’s so empowering to be getting better at something as we get older. We can be fully engaged in life with our very energetic kids . I had abdominal separation and surgery after kids and I cannot believe that my core is probably the strongest and most functional it has ever been.

Stu is so passionate and will cheer you on and explain the complexities of FP in a way you can understand. He is constantly striving to help you improve and works so hard on being the best coach he can.

It’s a lifelong commitment and a big learning curve but it’s 100% worth the dedication. If you fully embrace FP there are so many beneficial aspects to nutrition, gut health, nervous system regulation and emotional well being that will improve your quality of life. We are still still learning and getting better every session!

I highly recommend Functional Patterns Newcastle, they truly stand out in the fitness industry for their innovative and holistic approach. The individual training sessions tailored specifically to my needs have been transformative. The initial consultation was thorough, with a detailed analysis of my posture and gait cycle, ensuring that every aspect of my training was personalised.
Stuart is not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in my progress.
