This Girl Can at the Yarra Centre 2019

Jun 2, 2020

This Girl Can at the Yarra Centre was a pilot program delivered in partnership with Eastern Health - Health Promotion and the Yarra Centre.

The program aimed to provide a safe and non judgmental environment for women to increase their participation in physical activity. Sixteen females aged 16 to 81 participated in the six week program.

Common barriers to participation included cost, time constraints and feeling too tired to exercise. Of the 10 participants that completed pre and post surveys, 80% reported an increase in their motivation to exercise since starting the program.
