Group Exercise Sessions to Encourage Social Connection and Green Therapy Outdoor Adventures
Our passion is encouraging participants to enjoy the social side of exercise whilst also safely strengthening their cardiovascular and muscular system.
Exercise is gaining more and more attention as an activity that improves body health and cognition through the influx of chemicals to brain pathways as a result of physical activity.
Our exercise physiologist, Brodie Cambourne has studied brain development for the past 10 years and has witnessed the effects that regular movement has on the development of social skills and cognitive skills in growing babies.
Exercise is now being shown to have the same effects on fully developed brains with the brain benefitting from regular blood flow provided by exercise.
Our exercise programs encourage social connection to create a feeling of belonging and support whilst exercising your brain and body.
Our LOW ANXIETY LEARNING ENVIRONMENT allows participants who may experience anxiety and depression to feel safe within these group settings.
Brodie Cambourne is experienced in working with participants who suffer from PTSD, anxiety and depression and understands the need for individual approaches to activities for each client to feel supported.
Our group exercise sessions encourage discussion time to allow participants to discuss and therefore learn about the effects of exercise on their illness or disability.
Our regular weekend outings create a Team Like approach to exercise and supporting each member.
