What is Youth Fit?
It’s a structured gym-based program for 11–15-year-olds. It helps build confidence, learn proper technique, improve fitness, and understand how to use the gym safely.
Can my child just come in and train by themselves?
No – Youth Fit is a fully supervised program. Outside of these sessions, young people under 16 can't access the gym unless part of a separate supervised or youth membership arrangement.

Youth Fit is strictly for ages 11–15 to ensure age-appropriate training. We’d love to see them next year!
Is this like a PT session?
Not quite – it’s a small group setting led by a qualified fitness coach, with a focus on learning, movement skills, and building confidence – but not personal training.
What does my child need to bring?
Just activewear, closed-in shoes, a water bottle, a towel, and a positive attitude is a bonus too!
Do parents need to stay during the session?
No need to stay – you're welcome to, but the sessions are fully supervised by trained staff.
How much does it cost?
Initial 5 week pilot program is free! But Term 4 will have an associated cost. TBA
What else should I know?
A Pre-Exercise Registration Form AND enrolment is required to be completed and signed by a parent/guardian prior to the first session and renewed every term.
All sessions are conducted by qualified, experienced and energetic Fitness Coach and follow national guidelines for delivery of children and adolescent’s health and fitness services.
We encourage independence in our program so prefer parents do not attend the sessions, but are welcome to speak to the Fitness Coaches before or after the sessions.
Participants are required to wait in the foyer for the Fitness Coach to collect at the start of each session.
Change rooms are available.
