The Ocean Kids Health ‘Mindful Movement’ Pilates Group is a weekly exercise program designed for children aged 9–14 years. The group provides a supportive and inclusive environment for young people who may prefer a slower-paced, non-competitive form of physical activity rather than traditional team or ball sports.

The sessions are facilitated by Ariana, a Pilates-certified Exercise Physiologist, who provides expert guidance in developing strength, flexibility, coordination, and body awareness through Pilates-based movement.

The Mindful Movement Pilates Group caters to children of all abilities, with each exercise offering a range of variations so participants can work at a level that suits their individual skill and comfort. Sessions incorporate both individual and partner-based activities, allowing children to engage socially while developing teamwork, communication, and coordination skills. Exercises are adapted to meet the needs of each child, ensuring an inclusive and supportive environment where every participant can experience success. Throughout the term, themed sessions—such as Halloween, Christmas, and those based on current interests—are included to add variety, maintain engagement, and encourage creativity.
