Virtual fitness is here

Virtual fitness classes are here!

Commencing on Monday 10 September we will have an additional 54 classes on the group exercise timetable per week. Jump in and experience a class for yourself!

What is Virtual Fitness?

Virtual fitness is technology based group exercise played via a large screen in the group exercise studios. It’s designed to provide members with a group exercise fix at any time of the day and encourages more people to engage in group exercise that may not normally participate in such classes.

Why are we offering virtual classes?

We know how busy people’s lives can be. Virtual fitness allows increased flexibility to exercise with more options for our members to attend their favourite classes throughout the day.  These classes will be running in off-peak times where there are no instructor-led classes.

Is Virtual replacing the live, instructor-led classes?

Definitely not – We are committed to provide live instructors as the ultimate expression of our classes at PARC. Nothing can compare to the amazing experience our group exercise instructors create in every class. We know that a recording can’t reach the heights that our instructors can with building personal connections and providing one-on-one coaching. Virtual provides greater options for our members to attend group exercise outside of peak times when instructors aren’t available.

What programs are available as Virtual workouts?

BODYBALANCE, BODYCOMBAT, BODYPUMP, CXWORX, SH’BAM and RPM are currently available in the Les Mills Virtual format. The program releases are updated every three months with new choreography and music to ensure they are fresh and in line with the latest research.

What about the safety of the members in the virtual class?

Participants receive proper instruction on safety and technique as the classes are based on regular programming and instruction, and also feature additional safety guidelines at the start of the workout.

Unplug24
Join us in going off social media for a day on 24 October.

Next Friday, on Friday 24 October, we are joining Unplug24, a 24-hour break from social media in solidarity with SmackTalk – an organisation founded by local Wayne Holdsworth to honour his son, Mac, and raise awareness around suicide prevention.

Unplug24 encourages us to step away from social media and reconnect offline to:
🔌 Protect mental health
🔌 Raise awareness to prevent suicide
🔌 Support vital education and awareness programs

Last year, more than 134,000 people took part, proving that sometimes the most powerful connection is offline. This year, SmackTalk is aiming to reach over a million participants in Australia and around the world.

Let’s join together and unplug from all social media for the day – at work and at home – to show our support for this important cause.

Restart a Heart Day at PARC this Saturday ❤️💙

Join us this weekend, on Saturday 18 October, for Restart a Heart Day, a vital community event that raises awareness about cardiac arrest and empowers people with lifesaving CPR skills.

Hosted by Monash University Paramedicine, this educational pop up in PARC`s foyer will help build a safer, more prepared community.

Did you know that only 1 in 10 people survive a cardiac arrest? Most cardiac arrests happen in the home, so learning how to act fast could save the life of someone you love. Restart a Heart day will teach you how to respond in just three simple steps: CALL, PUSH, SHOCK.

Drop by PARC on Saturday morning between 9am – 12pm to learn from paramedics and paramedic students, who will be on hand to guide you through these critical steps and boost your confidence in delivering CPR.

Every minute counts when restarting a heart – let’s work together to improve survival rates!
