Come and try free fitness classes as part of This Girl Can

Published on 29 March 2019

Aqua aerobics, boxing and muscle-building sessions are a few of the free classes being offered to local women to celebrate the This Girl Can initiative.

This Girl Can, supported by VicHealth, aims to encourage more women to give physical activity a go, or return to exercise after a break.

The sessions are being held throughout the shire, and will focus on the over-50 age group, and women are encouraged to come and give one of them a go regardless of their abilities and past experiences. The session will include a free morning tea, and giveaways.
