Established in 2020, The Movement Academy is Australia’s first outdoor Parkour, Calisthenics, and Gymnastics program. With a focus on getting kids moving and engaged in healthy, fun activities, The Movement Academy aims to combat the growing trend of children being glued to screens. Founder Cato Sibthorpe, a former gymnast with state and national level titles, brings over 10 years of industry experience to every session, ensuring a wealth of knowledge and fun for all participants.
At The Movement Academy, children are encouraged to step away from their screens and embrace active play in a supportive and engaging environment. The program offers a variety of activities including Parkour, Calisthenics, and Gymnastics, providing a holistic approach to movement, health, and play. Coaches like Cato Sibthorpe and Dimitrios Efthimiou bring their expertise and passion to each session, inspiring the next generation to lead active and healthy lifestyles.
Located in Burleigh Heads, QLD, The Movement Academy prides itself on creating a space where parents struggle to pull their kids away after a session, rather than from their screens. With a strong emphasis on passing on skills and a positive mentality around movement, the academy aims to instill a love for physical activity in children and foster a community dedicated to staying active and engaged.
