Community Open Day at Positive Energy Health + Fitness Balgowlah

Overview

Some people treat their gym as their third space. It only makes sense; between home responsibilities, the workplace, and smashing out errands, there's often not much time left for anything beyond a spin class or a deadlift. Yet the crew behind Positive Energy Health + Fitness is taking that idea a step further, offering a cutting-edge wellness venue where connection is more than an afterthought.

If you've been craving a local hangout with huge wellness upsides, Positive Energy is celebrating the recent launch of its new Balgowlah location with an open-day experience. Taking place from 6am–4pm on Saturday, March 7, this free community block party offers mini movement classes, live music, local markets and family-friendly activities designed as a welcoming neighbourhood gathering.

Beyond getting in a little exercise, you'll get to know the brand-new space, inspired by the art deco architecture you'd normally find overlooking Miami's beaches. Think sculptural curves, soft pastel hues, arched entryways and abundant natural light that screams Palm Springs. Stepping inside, this modern wellness sanctuary is home to multiple purpose-built studios, contrast therapy facilities, including ice baths and a sauna, and sound-insulated wellness rooms.

What's more, Positive Energy Balgowlah also features a cafe and juice bar, made for post-class rituals with your workout pals. Meanwhile, the class program is tailored to both women and men, as well as oft-overlooked groups like parents and over-50s. "For a long time, fitness spaces have been heavily focused on performance and aesthetics," says Founder Jodie Hines. "This is about movement as a shared experience, and somewhere people can come to feel energised, grounded and genuinely connected."
