Active Ageing &
Healthy Movement

Staying active is one of the most important things we can do to maintain our independence, health & quality of life as we age.

At Gym Lab Apollo Bay, we believe movement is for everyone. Through our Active Ageing programs and collaboration with the Great Ocean Road Health Allied Health team, we help community members improve strength, balance, mobility and confidence in a welcoming and supportive environment.

Whether you're looking to maintain your current fitness, return to exercise after illness or injury, improve your balance, or simply stay active and connected, there are options available to support your individual needs.

Explore the programs below and discover how regular movement can help you stay strong, capable and active for years to come.

GOLDEN GROOVE

A feel-good, low-impact class for our active ageing community. Gentle movement, balance work and strength exercises set to music help build strength, mobility and confidence, and can help reduce your risk of falls.
Small, capped classes mean you'll always get the support and attention you need, plus great company!

STRONGER BONES

A strength class designed to support bone health, for anyone wanting to stay strong, steady and independent as they age. Using progressive weight-bearing and resistance exercises, plus balance and posture work, you'll build muscle, support your bones and move with more confidence.
Every exercise is coached and adapted to you, in a small, supportive group. It's the perfect next step after completing Strong Bones at Great Ocean Road Health, and new faces are always welcome too. If you're joining us directly, we'll have a quick chat first to make sure the class is the right fit for you.

PHYSIOTHERAPY & EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY

For those requiring individual assessment, rehabilitation or specialised exercise support, the Great Ocean Road Health Allied Health team offers physiotherapy and exercise physiology services.

Working with qualified health professionals can help identify the most appropriate pathway for your goals, whether that involves rehabilitation, injury prevention, strength building or improving everyday function.
