ActiveEx

Why do we need this class?

Exercise has lots of benefits for your health. Exercise makes you stronger and fitter and helps to manage or prevent many health conditions. It also contributes to improving the way we do many functional activities, like standing up or walking. Exercise is also known to have benefits for your mental wellbeing as well.

There are lots of options for exercise like joining a gym or going for a regular walk. Exercising on your own can sometimes be hard if you need exercises to be adapted, you require some assistance or if you like someone to spur you on

So we have designed ActivEx to:

1. Improve your fitness
2. Improve your upper and lower body strength
3. Improve your flexibility
4. Be a supportive and safe environment for you to exercise.

How does ActivEx work?

Each online class consists of work done together as a group but you can work at a level that is challenging for you. You can sit for most of the class and it will run for 45 minutes in total.

When does it run?

ActivEx runs weekly on Tuesdays at 11am via zoom, which means that you can exercise from your home.

How much will it cost?

The cost of attending the classes is $60 per month.

What is the first step?

Before you start the exercise class, you need to make an appointment for a brief screening session, which is free. 

This session will take about 30 minutes with a physiotherapist who will run through some brief physical tests with you and talk about which class will best suit your needs. You can schedule this appointment by calling our clinic on (09) 480 6464. 

When you book this session, we will send some questionnaires to you for you to fill out and bring to the session.
