Seniors Health & Fitness Program

Learn to stay active, strong and connected with our fitness short courses in Sydney!

Our Seniors Health & Fitness Program is a welcoming, community-focused fitness program for people aged 50 and over who want to keep moving, maintain strength and mobility, and enjoy exercising alongside others. More than just a fitness class, this program has become a valued weekly routine where participants support their health, build confidence, and form meaningful social connections.

Sessions focus on gentle, effective movement designed to support everyday strength, balance, mobility, and overall wellbeing. Classes combine low-impact cardiovascular exercise with resistance and balance training, all guided by an experienced tutor who encourages participants to work at their own pace in a safe and supportive environment.

Whether you’re returning to exercise, looking to maintain an active lifestyle, or simply wanting a positive and social way to keep moving each week, this program offers an encouraging space where everybody is welcome.

Classes are offered both indoors at our Rozelle campus and outdoors at Camperdown Tennis Centre, allowing you to choose the setting that suits you best.
