Sterling Calisthenics provides the opportunity for more than 100 children and adults to experience the benefits of participation in a team sport that incorporates creativity and fitness. Their studio is home to up to 65 classes each week, and facilities are also made available to the wider community when other groups need a space to meet and train. Sterling Calisthenics needs to replace the floor in the current studio to address an increasing number of knee and ankle injuries experienced by performers. The current floor has started to deteriorate and a sprung floor would be very beneficial

With the installation of a safer new floor at Sterling Calisthenics, more participation opportunities will be created for people in the local community and performers will increase their ability to achieve movements that involve leaping and landing safely. The studio will be more attractive to other groups wanting a space to meet and train, due to reduced risk of injuries.
Sterling Calisthenics will also seek to establish additional flexible classes in the future, for example Cali-Fit, a Calisthenics Victoria program created with VIC Health funding, that delivers Calisthenics in a modified format, as a flexible community fitness program.

It’s such a great studio love training there but floors are quite slippery and hard on the knees etc. New flooring would be amazing. So much safer.
