Exercise Classes
Our Exercise class instructors lead small group classes in all of our clinics except for Yarram.
These classes have a maximum of six people per class and offer tailored exercise programs guided by a qualified instructor to support any experience level.
Which Class Should I Choose?
There are a few types of exercise class available at HealthLinks Gippsland.
Clinical Exercise
Run by our Osteopath Dr Michelle Derrick, these classes are mat-based and have a maximum of four per class. The exercises in this class are tailored for to each individual and utilise pilates techniques. This class is suitable for all ages and stages of life – including new mums as they are baby friendly!
Chair Based Exercise
Run by our Clinical Pilates Instructor, Laura Foat, these classes utilise chairs for a more supported exercise program. These classes can have up to six people per class and are fantastic for those that feel that they may need a bit of extra support, or are just starting out with exercise and would like to build up confidence in their body.
More to Come?
We are continuing to build and expand our class timetable with plans for Prenatal, Postnatal and Mums and Bubs classes in the future.
If you have any specific requests or suggestions, please let us know.
What Can Exercise Classes Help with?
Exercise can help in every aspect of a healthy life!
In particular, our clinical exercise classes focus on:
- Building strength
- Maintaining balance
- Improving mobility
- Reducing pain levels
- Boosting mood
- Increasing your confidence in your own body
On top of these specific aims, a group class setting is a fantastic social activity.
It also turns exercise – which can seem unappealing and daunting – into something to look foward to!
