Confident Kids · Kids & Teens
Not every kid is into competitive team sport — and that's completely fine. Our Kids & Teens classes give shy, anxious or less sporty kids a warm, non-judgemental place to move, belong and build real confidence through their own small wins.
This might be your child
Some kids light up on a sports field. Others quietly hang back — uncertain, self-conscious, happier behind a screen. There's nothing wrong with them; they just haven't found the place where they get to feel good at something yet.
How we actually help
What makes this work for an anxious or less sporty kid is simple: there's no leaderboard. Every movement is scaled to the child, so they're only ever measured against themselves. There's no one to lose to and nothing to fail — just their own progress, week by week.
Confidence isn't lectured into kids — it's built through small, visible wins: a movement they couldn't do last week, a little more weight, a workout they thought was too hard. Each one is real and theirs, and they stack up. That's how a quiet kid slowly starts standing a little taller.
Why you can trust this
We're a small, owner-led gym, so your child is known by name from day one. The program is structured and serious about coaching — and just as serious about making every kid feel welcome.
Scott Richardson (CrossFit Level 2) leads the Kids & Teens program with real coaching structure, so the fun always sits on top of genuine, careful teaching.
Marina De Santos (PE and sport-science background) and Amelia Nowlan are two of our most welcoming coaches — exactly the people you'd want encouraging a nervous kid.
Everything is scaled to the individual. Kids progress at their own pace with nothing to compare and nothing to lose, so there's no pressure and no spotlight.
Small, supervised classes backed by our NSW child-safe commitment and code of conduct. A kind, structured space where it's okay to be new and okay to be quiet.
How your child would start
No pressure, no spotlight, no being thrown in. Here's exactly how it goes from your first message to your child feeling at home.
Leave your details and tell us your child's age and a little about them. A coach calls you back — gently, no pressure at all.
We talk through what they're like, what they enjoy and anything they're nervous about, so we can make their first visit as comfortable as possible.
They come along to the right Kids or Teens class and simply have a go. Everything is scaled, the room is kind, and there's nothing to get wrong.
When they're ready, lock in a term or casual plan. If you're eligible, the NSW Active Kids voucher brings term plans down to as little as $24.99.
Let's clear the air
No. Everything is scaled to your child and a coach sets the pace with them, not at them. There's no audition, no spotlight and no being singled out — just quiet, steady encouragement to do their own version of the work.
Then this is exactly for them. These classes aren't about being the best in the room — they're about your child getting a bit better than they were last week. Plenty of our kids don't play any other sport, and that's completely fine.
There's nothing to win, so there's nothing to lose. We deliberately don't run leaderboards in these classes. Every kid works at their own level, and the only progress that matters is their own.
Yes — that's the whole point. Classes are small, the coaches are genuinely warm, and the room runs on encouragement. It's all backed by our NSW child-safe commitment and code of conduct, so you can relax too.
My daughter is shy and team sport never suited her. Here she's not being compared to anyone, so she actually tries. She came home buzzing the first time she got a movement she'd been stuck on — I hadn't seen her that proud in ages.
