We offer a range of programs that cater for all ages and abilities, from our Wild South Kids (5-9 years old) and Wild South Junior (10-13 years old) classes to our Wild South Teens (14-17 years old) classes.
Our Youth Programs utilise movements and activities that kids naturally enjoy while providing an environment that is safe, fun and energetic. Our experienced and trained coaches use a wide range and combination of skill practice, workouts and games, and progress to strength and conditioning.
