Staying active is about more than improving physical fitness. It's about building confidence, creating meaningful connections and enjoying movement in a way that feels supportive and achievable.


At Fitcare, our inclusive fitness programs in Melbourne are designed to help NDIS participants improve their physical wellbeing while becoming part of a welcoming community. Whether someone is taking their first steps towards a healthier lifestyle or looking to stay active alongside others, our weekly community sessions provide opportunities to move, connect and have fun.



Why inclusive fitness matters

Everyone deserves the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of movement.


Traditional fitness environments can sometimes feel intimidating or inaccessible, particularly for people living with disability. Inclusive fitness takes a different approach by creating supportive spaces where participants can move at their own pace, celebrate personal progress and enjoy being part of a community.


The focus isn't on competition. It's on participation, confidence and building healthy habits that last.


Weekly community fitness programs across Melbourne

Fitcare offers a range of inclusive fitness programs throughout Melbourne, giving participants regular opportunities to stay active while building friendships and confidence.


North Side Track Club

Held every Monday at Clifton Hill Athletics Club, North Side Track Club brings participants together for an hour of movement and fun.


Sessions include:

  • Walking

  • Interactive games

  • Group activities

  • Gentle fitness


It's a relaxed and supportive environment where participants can improve their physical wellbeing while enjoying time with others.


Bayside Track Club


Every Wednesday, our Bayside Track Club explores different locations including running tracks, lakes and beaches across Melbourne's bayside suburbs.


Participants enjoy:

  • Walking and light running

  • Outdoor exercise

Everyone is encouraged to participate at their own pace, making it an inclusive environment for all fitness levels and abilities.

  • Coordination

  • Rhythm

  • Confidence


No previous dance experience is needed. The focus is simply on enjoying movement and having fun together.


More than exercise

While physical activity is an important part of every session, the benefits extend far beyond fitness.


Our community programs provide opportunities for participants to:

  • Build confidence in social settings

  • Develop meaningful friendships

  • Improve physical health and mobility

  • Strengthen coordination and balance

  • Create healthy weekly routines

  • Increase community participation


These experiences contribute to greater independence and overall wellbeing, supporting participants as they work towards their personal goals.
