A Celebration Day For Girls
Menarche (a girl’s first period) is a defining moment in the transition from young girlhood and A Celebration Day For Girls honours this unique aspect of becoming a young woman. A workshop for 10-12 year olds and their Mums (or female carers), the day includes detailed information and fun activities around puberty and periods, lively discussion, the sharing of stories and beautiful ritual.
We want our girls to cherish their bodies, feel positive about who they are and build resilience for the many challenges the world will throw at them.
One of our senior physiotherapists Kath facilitates this Sunday workshop for private and
school/church groups.

Pelvic Floor First is an initiative of the Continence Foundation of Australia and aims to reduce the number of men and women who experience pelvic floor dysfunction as a result of inappropriate exercise regimes.
The aim is supported by the following objectives:
- strengthen the relationship between the continence and fitness industry
- increase awareness of the link between certain types of exercise and pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, and
