Movement isn’t just about exercise—it’s about confidence, community, and well-being. That’s why we asked our members to tell us how they move and why it matters to them.

We’re excited to share Rachel’s inspiring journey.

Rachel shares that rejoining the gym after a long battle of mental illness turned her life around. Rachel now bounces out of bed, checks the timetable or books into a virtual class, daily.

“It’s the pleasure I need to achieve my wellness goals”. Rachel.

Rachels advice to starting exercise to support wellness goals:

“Find a gym buddy, join Cardinia members group and have fun. You have to start somewhere”.
