Exercise is MEDICINE! Hence it is our missison to get people moving, staying fit and active! We understand that perhaps due to pain, injuries or simply lack of practice that it is hard to get started or continue to exercise or stay active.

We have designed these classes to ensure that your exercises are

• tailored to you
• progressed in a timely and safe manner
• meet your goals

We generally require an initial assessment to identify and formulate a plan with you prior to joining one of our class.

All our classes are led by a physiotherapist or an exercise physiologist in a small group of 4 participants.
