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.

⭐️ Swimming for a cause: Meet Clinton Hosie ⭐️
 
This February, PARC Aquatic Access member Clinton Hosie is taking on a new challenge - swimming 14km to raise funds for the Starlight Children’s Foundation as part of their Super Swim.
 
Every minute of every day, a child in Australia is admitted to hospital. Clinton is diving in to help bring joy, laughter, and comfort to sick kids when they need it most.
 
We love seeing you at PARC putting in the laps, Clinton - your dedication in and out of the pool is inspiring.
 
Good luck, have fun, and thank you for swimming for such an important cause!

Still buzzing from the Waterfront Festival! 🎡 

What an absolutely incredible event! A massive congratulations to our Frankston Skatepark team for pulling off such an massive activation. It was fantastic to see so many local riders on the half pipe, and seeing our community rally around them and enjoying the mini skate lessons! 

Rotary Peninsula 2.0's annual Duck Derby was full of fun and chaos! It was so much fun cheering on our very own duck, Percy and Hydro, to the finish line. 

Thank you so much @waterfrontfest for having us! We can’t wait for next year!
