Sports Aerobics is an excellent way to have a lot of fun and keep fit, whilst learning something new and creative. It is a combination of aerobics and dance moves that require a high level of fitness, flexibility, artistic expression and high energy performances.

Students have the choice of participating solely in the weekly dance/fitness aerobics class (Mondays) or they may trial for a place in the RGS Sports Aerobics Team. Members of the representative team will attend an additional training session each week on Fridays.

Commence on Monday 18 February 2008

Time: 5.15pm - 6.15pm at the Primary Undercroft

Please note: If you are selected on the school Sports Aerobics team you are expected to be able to attend both training days a week. Obviously some weeks students have things that may prevent this, however commitment to training is important as it is a team performance not an individual one. Do not try out for selections if you do not think you can commit to the work load.

Coach: Ms Caitlin Crawford

Attire: For classes: sports shoes, comfortable shorts and top (not too brief), water bottle and towel. For competition: a team uniform will be required to be purchased for the QLD titles.

Cost

$25 per term (charged to student accounts)

Please note: If you join half way through the term a charge of only $15 will apply. However, once you have signed up you will NOT be reimbursed this money if you decide to pull out throughout the term.
