💛 MYFIRSTGYM STRATHPINE GIVES BACK 💛

This September, we’re proud to be supporting a Queensland charity that is very close to our hearts.

After 10 years working as a midwife, I have had the privilege of caring for many families during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. I have also seen firsthand women bringing their babies into the world without a home to welcome them too, without a clean nappy to put on their baby, or a blanket to wrap them in. The difference a little extra support can make during challenging times is very humbling.

Throughout September, we’re inviting our amazing MyFirstGym Strathpine community to help us give back. 🫶

We will be collecting donations of:

👶 Clean, good-condition baby clothing
🧷 Nappies
🧼 Baby wipes
🧴 Baby toiletries and essential care items

Simply bring your donations into the gym throughout September and add them to our collection.

🧸 TEDDY BEARS’ PICNIC CHARITY EVENT – 20 SEPTEMBER

We’ll also be holding a special Teddy Bears’ Picnic Charity Event, with money raised from the event being donated alongside all of the beautiful items collected throughout the month.

This is an opportunity for our little gym to make a BIG difference to families within our wider Queensland community. 💛

Every packet of nappies, every little outfit and every donation counts.

Thank you, MFG Strathpine families, for helping us support families when they need it most.

Together, we can inspire movement AND kindness. 💛

As parents, our weeks are BUSY.

School. Work. Homework. Sport. Appointments. Birthday parties. Screens. Life.

And sometimes that weekly gym class can feel like just another thing on the calendar.

But here’s something worth thinking about…

🇦🇺 Australian guidelines recommend children aged 5–17 get at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity EVERY DAY. And yet, the latest Australian data shows that more than 4 in 5 teenagers aged 12–17 are getting LESS than one hour per day.

Movement isn't just about keeping our kids physically fit.

It helps build stronger muscles and bones.
❤️ Confidence and self-esteem.
🧠 Concentration and learning.
💪 Coordination and movement skills.
😊 Emotional wellbeing.
🤝 Friendships, teamwork and social skills.
🌱 Healthy habits they can carry into adulthood.

That hour they spend at MyFirstGym Strathpine each week isn't just another activity.

It's an hour where they're away from a screen.

An hour where they're running, climbing, jumping, balancing, swinging, laughing and challenging themselves.

An hour where they discover “I CAN DO THIS.”

And perhaps most importantly, it's helping teach them something we hope stays with them long after they've outgrown our gym…

❤️ Movement isn't a chore. Exercise isn't a punishment. Being active can be FUN.

One day they'll be teenagers and then adults, and we won't get to decide how active they are anymore.

But right now, we have an incredible opportunity to help them build those habits.

So whether your child loves Ninja, Boxing, Gymnastics, Parkour, Dance or MFG Fit — keep them moving.

🥊 INTRODUCING COACH JAEVE! 🥊

We’re very excited to officially introduce Coach Jaeve, our Monday night Boxing Coach at MyFirstGym Strathpine!

Jaeve holds her Certificate III in Fitness as well as her Level 1 Boxing qualification, and brings a wealth of knowledge from her years as a high-performance athlete.

At MyFirstGym Strathpine, we often hear parents say:

💬 “My child gets overwhelmed.”
💬 “They’re too busy watching all the other kids.”
💬 “They just stand back and take everything in.”

And we want you to know — this is so very normal and it will not last forever. 💛

For many children, walking into a new environment can feel like a LOT. New faces, new equipment, new sounds, new expectations and lots of other children moving around them.

Before they feel ready to jump in, they may need time to watch, process and understand their surroundings. They’re working out what’s happening, what comes next and, most importantly, whether they feel safe and comfortable.

Some children join in straight away. Others might need a few classes to observe from the sidelines, stay close to loved ones, or watch what the other children are doing before they feel confident enough to participate.

And that is absolutely okay. Sometimes giving a child the time and space to feel comfortable is exactly what they need to begin to thrive. 💙

👇 Seeing these photos you wouldn't know this was Matin just a few weeks ago! Have a read of what Matin’s mum had to say about their experience with us.

"My child joined MyFirstGym shortly after turning 2, and over the past 3 months he has absolutely fallen in love with it. He genuinely looks forward to his classes every week and has so much fun.

As we don’t have family around here he doesn’t attend daycare, he was quite shy at first and didn’t participate much during the first few sessions. However, thanks to his wonderful, energetic coach, who makes every class so engaging and enjoyable for the children, we started seeing a huge change after just a few weeks. He has become much more confident, involved, and enthusiastic.

I wanted to express my sincere appreciation to you both for creating such a warm and welcoming environment. We are so grateful that you opened this branch in Strathpine and gave families like ours the opportunity to enjoy these fantastic classes."
