My First Gym Strathpine

As parents, our weeks are BUSY.

School. Work. Homework. Sport. Appointments. Birthday parties. Screens. Life.

And sometimes that weekly gym class can feel like just another thing on the calendar.

But here’s something worth thinking about…

🇦🇺 Australian guidelines recommend children aged 5–17 get at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity EVERY DAY. And yet, the latest Australian data shows that more than 4 in 5 teenagers aged 12–17 are getting LESS than one hour per day.

Movement isn't just about keeping our kids physically fit.

It helps build stronger muscles and bones.
❤️ Confidence and self-esteem.
🧠 Concentration and learning.
💪 Coordination and movement skills.
😊 Emotional wellbeing.
🤝 Friendships, teamwork and social skills.
🌱 Healthy habits they can carry into adulthood.

That hour they spend at MyFirstGym Strathpine each week isn't just another activity.

It's an hour where they're away from a screen.

An hour where they're running, climbing, jumping, balancing, swinging, laughing and challenging themselves.

An hour where they discover “I CAN DO THIS.”

And perhaps most importantly, it's helping teach them something we hope stays with them long after they've outgrown our gym…

❤️ Movement isn't a chore. Exercise isn't a punishment. Being active can be FUN.

One day they'll be teenagers and then adults, and we won't get to decide how active they are anymore.

But right now, we have an incredible opportunity to help them build those habits.

So whether your child loves Ninja, Boxing, Gymnastics, Parkour, Dance or MFG Fit — keep them moving.

🥊 INTRODUCING COACH JAEVE! 🥊

We’re very excited to officially introduce Coach Jaeve, our Monday night Boxing Coach at MyFirstGym Strathpine!

Jaeve grew up right here in our local community before taking her sporting talents to an incredible level. 🚣‍♀️ She went on to represent Australia in rowing, before accepting a rowing scholarship in the United States, where she continued competing while completing her university degree.

Now back on home soil in North Brisbane, we are thrilled to have Jaeve bringing her experience, knowledge and passion for sport to the MFG Strathpine team! 💪

Jaeve holds her Certificate III in Fitness as well as her Level 1 Boxing qualification, and brings a wealth of knowledge from her years as a high-performance athlete.

We are incredibly proud to have yet another inspirational sportswoman on our coaching team, providing our young athletes with strong, positive role models who know firsthand where dedication, hard work and a love of sport can take you. 🌟

At MyFirstGym Strathpine, we often hear parents say:

💬 “My child gets overwhelmed.”
💬 “They’re too busy watching all the other kids.”
💬 “They just stand back and take everything in.”

And we want you to know — this is so very normal and it will not last forever. 💛

For many children, walking into a new environment can feel like a LOT. New faces, new equipment, new sounds, new expectations and lots of other children moving around them.

Before they feel ready to jump in, they may need time to watch, process and understand their surroundings. They’re working out what’s happening, what comes next and, most importantly, whether they feel safe and comfortable.

Some children join in straight away. Others might need a few classes to observe from the sidelines, stay close to loved ones, or watch what the other children are doing before they feel confident enough to participate.

And that is absolutely okay. Sometimes giving a child the time and space to feel comfortable is exactly what they need to begin to thrive. 💙

👇 Seeing these photos you wouldn't know this was Matin just a few weeks ago! Have a read of what Matin’s mum had to say about their experience with us.

"My child joined MyFirstGym shortly after turning 2, and over the past 3 months he has absolutely fallen in love with it. He genuinely looks forward to his classes every week and has so much fun.

As we don’t have family around here he doesn’t attend daycare, he was quite shy at first and didn’t participate much during the first few sessions. However, thanks to his wonderful, energetic coach, who makes every class so engaging and enjoyable for the children, we started seeing a huge change after just a few weeks. He has become much more confident, involved, and enthusiastic.

I wanted to express my sincere appreciation to you both for creating such a warm and welcoming environment. We are so grateful that you opened this branch in Strathpine and gave families like ours the opportunity to enjoy these fantastic classes."
