Happy first day of spring! 🌸 A new season is the perfect time for a reset — not just for your physical wellbeing, but your mental wellbeing too.

How about trying something new this season? As the weather warms up, it could be getting more steps outside, swimming an extra lap, catching up with a friend at the gym or trying a new group exercise class.

Sometimes, even the smallest change to your routine can do wonders for your wellbeing. Here's to a fresh season and a fresh start! ☀️

Every young person deserves to feel safe, supported and celebrated for who they are. 💜

Friday 28 August is Wear It Purple Day. This year's theme, Colours of Courage, recognises the strength, pride and resilience of rainbow young people, and the power of community support to make a real difference.

Wear a touch of purple on Friday to show your support. Purple sweatbands will be available in our group exercise classes for anyone who would like to get involved.

We're proud to be a welcoming and inclusive space where everyone belongs.

Getting ready for the Sydney Marathon next Sunday? Firstly, amazing work! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Secondly, as you taper your training, why not swap the running shoes for the pool? 🏊‍♀️

Swimming is a great low-impact way to keep moving without putting extra strain on your legs.

💦 Low-impact cardio: Get your heart rate up without the pounding on your joints.
💦 Active recovery: Keep the blood flowing and ease tired, heavy legs.
💦 Mental reset: Relax, clear your head and ease those pre-race nerves.

Give your legs a break this week and dive into a swim before race day! 🙌
