As parents of a toddler (and one on the way), we understand the unique needs, interests, and abilities each child brings to a class. This perspective helps us to create an inclusive, engaging environment where kids feel safe to explore, learn, and grow. Our experience coaching a range of sports - including rowing, mountain biking, netball, and triathlon has taught us how to connect with children of all ages and abilities.

 

In our Little Big Shots class, we focus on building motor skills, coordination, and confidence through play based activities. For our Youth Fitness Class, we aim to inspire older kids to stay active, build strength, and enjoy fitness with their peers. We are excited to share our passion for sports and fitness and help every child experience the joy of movement.
