Our Story

Founded in 2024, Charlie Smith saw an opportunity to transform his home garage in Bronte into a unique gym. His vision was clear: to build a space and culture that embodied his personal beliefs and values, not only in training but in life as a whole.

The Avenue is built on the belief that true growth comes from developing a love for the process. Charlie’s goal was to create a space and program that allowed individuals to embrace the daily pursuit of self improvement.

Avenue Training Clovelly has now been open for over a year and in that time we've built an incredible community and welcomed over 1,000 people through our doors.

We're incredibly grateful to everyone who has been part of the journey so far. What started as a small garage gym has grown into something we're really proud of - a place where people of all ages, backgrounds and experience levels can feel supported and challenged.

Charlie now runs the business alongside his fiancée, Amber, helping ensure every member receives a warm welcome and a great experience from the moment they walk through the door. Our goal has always been to create more than just a gym - a genuine community where people enjoy showing up, working hard and being part of something bigger.
