Let's Get Moving!

We understand that there may be some barriers preventing people from moving their bodies and enjoying an active lifestyle.

We adapt activities for the individual so that they can participate and get all the benefits being active has to offer!

Some benefits of regular activity include; 

• reduce the risk of a heart attack

• manage body weight

• lower blood cholesterol level

• lower the risk of type 2 diabetes

• lower blood pressure

• strengthen bones, muscles and joints and lower the risk of developing osteoporosis

• lower the risk of falls by improving stability

• improve recovery from periods of hospitalisation or bed rest

• Lift your mood – with more energy, feel more relaxed and sleep better.

Several studies have found that exercise helps reduce depression and improve mental health.

• Exercise can block negative thoughts and work as a distraction from daily worries.

• Exercising with others provides an opportunity for increased social connection and a sense of belonging.

• Increased activity will lift your mood and improve your sleep patterns.

• Exercise will also change levels of chemicals in your brain, such as serotonin, endorphins and stress hormones.
