Our Services
1:1 Exercise Physiology
Our 1-on-1 exercise therapy sessions are designed to provide personalised, focused support for each child. Tailored to their unique needs, these sessions target key developmental goals, such as improving motor skills, strength, coordination, and balance. Our exercise physiologists use a play-based approach to make each session enjoyable and engaging, ensuring the therapy feels like fun while delivering real results. With 1-on-1 therapy, children receive the attention and support they need to build confidence, master new skills, and make meaningful progress in their development.
Group Exercise Physiology
Our group intervention sessions combine the benefits of social interaction and physical activity to support children's developmental progress. These sessions, which include group exercise activities are designed to improve motor skills, coordination, and teamwork, while fostering a sense of community and peer support. By participating in fun, engaging exercises alongside others, children develop confidence in their abilities, learn from one another, and strengthen both their physical and social skills. Our group sessions create a motivating and supportive environment where children can reach their goals together, building friendships and achieving growth in a dynamic, collaborative setting.
Early Intervention Therapy
Our Early Intervention Program is designed to support children aged 0–6 as they work toward important developmental milestones. Using a fun, play-based approach, we help build early movement skills, support emotional regulation, and foster independence and social interaction. Whether at home, in childcare, or out in the community, our sessions focus on preparing your child for school through purposeful movement, games, and interactive activities that develop physical, emotional, and cognitive foundations.
Holiday Programs and Intensives
At AKtive Kids, our holiday programs and intensives offer a unique opportunity for children to engage in focused, sport-specific or developmental activities during the school breaks. Our intensives, held during the school holidays, provide a concentrated approach to therapy, allowing children to make rapid progress in a short amount of time. These programs are tailored to each child's abilities and interests, ensuring a dynamic and enjoyable experience while achieving key developmental milestones.
Learn to Ride Program
Our Learn to Ride Program supports children in building the skills and confidence to ride independently. Designed for beginners, those transitioning from training wheels, or kids needing extra support, this program focuses on balance, coordination, and body awareness in a safe and encouraging environment. Delivered 1:1 by an accredited Exercise Physiologist, sessions are tailored to your child’s needs and take place in parks or local community spaces. Choose weekly sessions or an intensive school holiday format; whatever suits your child’s goals and pace.
Sports Skills and Drills
Our Sport Skills Program helps children build the confidence and coordination they need to thrive in team sports and school PE. Designed for kids who want to improve their performance or feel more confident joining in, we focus on fundamental movement and sport-specific skills like throwing, catching, kicking and agility. Sessions run term-by-term and are tailored to your child’s goals, with a focus on one sport each term. Delivered 1:1 or in small groups, we combine structured drills and repetition to support skill development in a fun and encouraging way.
Gross Motor Assessments
Our Gross Motor Assessments are designed to identify your child’s strengths and areas needing support, creating a clear baseline for therapy and NDIS planning. Ideal for children starting or continuing intervention, these assessments track physical development over time with measurable outcomes. Conducted by an Exercise Physiologist, we use a mix of standardised and observational tools to assess strength, balance, coordination, posture, reflexes, and functional movement. Optional written reports and collaborative goal-setting ensure a clear path forward for your child’s development.
Hydrotherapy Sessions
Our Hydrotherapy Program offers a gentle, supportive way to build strength, mobility, and motor control in the water. Ideal for children who benefit from sensory input, need low-impact movement, or find land-based exercises challenging, sessions are delivered 1:1 in a heated pool by an accredited Exercise Physiologist. Each session is tailored to your child’s needs, focusing on functional movement, endurance, coordination, and confidence in the water, all while having fun in a safe and calming environment.
Dynamic Movement Intervention
Our DMI Level 1 Program is designed for children with motor delays, neurological conditions, or genetic syndromes who benefit from structured, evidence-based intervention. Delivered 1:1 by an Exercise Physiologist, sessions use targeted movement patterns and dynamic challenges to promote neurodevelopment, improve alignment, and support postural control. Set in a supportive, play-based environment, each activity is tailored to stimulate automatic postural responses and build functional motor skills in a meaningful and engaging way.
Community Exercise Support
Our Community-Based Exercise sessions are designed to bring movement into real-life settings, promoting inclusion, independence, and social confidence. Perfect for children working on community goals, fitness, or specific skill development, these sessions take place in familiar and motivating environments, like local parks, beaches, or activity centres. Led by an Exercise Physiologist, each session is tailored to your child’s goals and interests, supporting physical activity, safety awareness, and meaningful participation in the world around them.
Parent & Educator Workshops
We offer parent and educator education seminars to equip families and professionals with the knowledge and tools to support children's physical development. Whether in a group or 1-on-1 setting, these seminars focus on the importance of exercise in a child's growth and development. We provide practical strategies for incorporating exercise at home and in school, emphasising how to make movement a fun and integral part of daily routines. Our goal is to empower parents and educators with the skills to promote physical health, build motor skills, and foster an active lifestyle for children, both inside and outside of therapy sessions.
