Updated location: Celebrate our Health Club of the Year Award win with us!

Did you hear the news? PARC was recently awarded Health Club of the Year at the prestigious Aquatics and Recreation Victoria (ARV) Awards.

This award would not have been possible without YOU, our amazing PARC community, and to show our appreciation we have put together a fun morning of FREE activities the entire family can enjoy.

Join us at PARC on Sunday 6 March from 9.30am – 11am for a FREE Year of Health workout, which will include an exercise circuit appropriate for varying levels of age, fitness and ability, a fun group exercise ‘Mash Up’ and a relaxing stretching session to cool down afterwards.

Please note – this event was originally going to be held at Beauty Park but due to soggy weather conditions, we have RELOCATED TO PARC!

This week, our PARC Swim team have organised some Commonwealth Games themed fun, to celebrate our Aussie athletes, who are absolutely dominating this year! 🥇

To celebrate, our PARC Swim teachers will include a small segment in this week’s lessons, using our snakes and ladders game, aligning a swimming activity with a participating sporting event 🏊🏃

Make sure to check out our activity table, and show support for Australia, or any other participating country by wearing their colours to your lesson this week! 
Have you heard of Habit Stacking? 🤔

It's a great way to add movement into your day by pairing small exercises with habits you already do - helping you be active and achieve 30-20-2, even when life is busy!

You can incorporate simple exercises into your daily task, such as:
- Squats while the kettle boils - turn waiting time into movement time.
- Calf raises while brushing your teeth - two minutes of strength, twice a day.
- Lunges down the hallway - every trip becomes a mini workout.
- Marching on the spot while folding laundry- complete some of your vigorous or moderate exercise every trip.
- Glute squeezes while sitting at your desk - perfect for busy workdays.

Remember, all movement counts 🙌

For more information about 30-20-2, or helpful resources and workouts to get you moving, head to our Digital Hub.
