You set the PACE in 2025. Now let’s get ready for 2026!

As 2025 draws to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on the incredible year we’ve shared with our PARC community. 

This year’s theme Your PACE at PARC encouraged you to embrace health and wellbeing on your terms. Because at PARC, we know that feeling good and staying active looks different for everyone. Our role is to help you discover what works best for you. 

It’s been a year of highlights for us, too. We were proud to be recognised with Facility of the Year Award and as an Outstanding Employer – achievements made possible thanks to the people who bring this place to life: YOU!  

But the real highlight? Watching you succeed on your health and wellbeing journey. 
Our members and guests have shown us that progress doesn’t follow one path or one pace. Whether you’re building confidence, finding your rhythm, or pushing new limits, your stories have inspired us every step of the way. This year taught us that living well isn’t necessarily about pushing harder – it’s about being intentional with how you move and care for yourself. 

2026: Step into something new 
As we look ahead, we’re excited for all that 2026 will bring. Our focus next year is simple: helping more of our community get moving, stay active, and make movement a natural part of everyday life. 

Throughout 2026, we’ll support you with the right mix of classes, programs, workouts, and services tailored to your goals and lifestyle. You can also look forward to fresh blogs, events, videos, and resources – all designed to keep you motivated, inspired, and moving.  

Thank you for a fun, fit, friendly and fantastic 2025 
Thank you for showing up – for yourself, and for our PARC community. Let’s step boldly into 2026 with a commitment to feeling stronger, moving more, and finding joy in every step along the way.
