Strength & Stretch
small group coaching | Bondi Beach | made for beginners
About Strength & stretch
We created ‘Strength and Stretch’ to support beginners to build strength with confidence, to support the life they want to live.
Our Strength & Stretch Small Group Coaching is a cross between personal training and a class: we provide hands-on support with your form and support you to find the right level of challenge while you get to be part of a fun and supportive group environment. There is a maximum of 6 people per coach.
We use bodyweight, resistance bands and a sturdy chair to build functional strength, balance and mobility to carry over to everyday activities like walking, hiking, swimming, running – or playing around with grandchildren.
Please bring your own exercise mat and long loop resistance band to the session. We will have some bands we can lend you if you do not have a band.
