Movement isn’t just for fitness and physical development … it’s also for regulation. 🧠✨

Not all children regulate the same way — so not all movement should look the same.

Some kids are constantly “on the go.”
Some struggle to get started.
Some melt down quickly.
Some seem switched off.
Some appear oppositional.

💡 The key = An individualised movement plan

When movement matches a child’s nervous system, it can:

✔️ Reduce overwhelm
✔️ Support emotional regulation
✔️ Increase body awareness
✔️ Boost confidence
✔️ Reduce stress
✔️ Improve proprioception
✔️ Improve focus and concentration

---

Some heavy work can be effective for many children, some example exercises:

✔️ Push-ups (peanut ball, wall, floor options)
✔️ Lifting weights
✔️ Pilates reformer exercises (eg leg press)
✔️ Pushing/pulling games
✔️Jumping and landing
✔️Climbing
✔️Supine gym ball leg kicks
✔️Boxing

Others prefer slower, gentler movement, some examples being:

🧘‍♀️ Yoga
🍃 Stretching
🌞 Nature walks
☁️ Breathwork

Some like rhythmic, predictable exercise, examples include:

🏃‍♀️ Aerobic exercise such as running, cycling, swimming.
💪 Weights

Some like spinning, swinging and sliding:

✔️ Whizzy dizzy
✔️ reformer exercises
✔️ Spinning in general
✔️ Swings

Others like deep pressure:

✔️ movement in body socks
✔️ crawling through Lycra tunnels
✔️ Tightly squeezing a gym ball

⏱ Short bursts (5–10 minutes) throughout the day often work better than one long session.

And most importantly…
👀 Observe. Adjust. Repeat.

If it increases chaos, change the intensity or type. The right movement should help the child feel more organised, not more overwhelmed.

Every nervous system is different.
When we individualise movement, we support regulation in a way that truly fits the child. 💛

Here are a few of our favourite exercises that look at working core strength, leg strength, and balance!! All whilst being fun and engaging 😀

04/02/2026

We love finding fun and creative ways to get our kids working on their balance, strength, and core!

We have a new toy that we introduced to the clinic today! It's a Go Balance board!! This is a balance board that we link up to our ipad, and we can play games whilst challenging our balance, ankle stability, and core! Today, we were catching monsters and then racing cars!

So much fun 😊

Don't forget to follow our page for all things exercise for kids and teens!!

If you have a contact person at your school who we can speak with, we’d love to be introduced.

✨ 2026 is the year your child thrives at school ✨

School can be exciting, but it can also be a lot for kids with neurodivergent brains. New routines, sensory overload, playground challenges, handwriting, sitting still, confidence wobbles – it all adds up.

That’s where Conveniently Active Kids comes in. We help children build strength, regulation, coordination and confidence through movement, so they can feel more settled, capable and supported during the school day.

If you’d like your child to start 2026 with the right tools, let’s chat about regular school visits and how we can work alongside your family, teachers and support team to make school feel easier.

Hypermobility is when our joints can move beyond their normal range of motion. Strengthening muscles around the joints can assist with joint stability and support, balance, core strength, posture, coordination, proprioception and body awareness.

We incorporate joint stability and strengthening exercise in both our one-on-one exercise physiology sessions and our Kids Moov exercise groups.

1000% yes, exercise CAN help with children and teens self-regulation.

The key ❓️

💫 Exercise and movement need to be individualised for the child. They are all so different!

💪 Some kiddos like heavy work. Others like something more gentle like kids yoga 🧘‍♀️

Some like groups. Some prefer solo.

❤️ Some children might have hypermobility, challenges with their coordination, their balance, and their overall strength. They may feel self-conscious or experience large levels of discomfort. When we acknowledge this and address this in a kind and understanding way, we can help to create an exercise program that promotes self-confidence, strength, and self-regulation.

🌼 When we provide children a space in which they feel heard and understood and where their sensory needs a met, they are more likely to thrive with their given exercise program.

So, what exercise program is best from self-regulation? There certainly is no one-sized fits all approach. But watch this space to learn more about different forms of exercise for kids to help with thrive with more confidence 🌞

🌟 Does your child need more support in 2026? 🌟

If your child is struggling with movement, confidence, coordination or big-body energy, now is the perfect time to set them up with the right support.

Our Accredited Exercise Physiologists work with kids of all ages and neurotypes to build strength, regulate emotions, improve motor skills and make movement feel fun and successful.

Start the year feeling organised, supported and confident about your child’s plan. Book an initial consultation and let’s create the right path forward for them. 💛

We have been working on something pretty special!! And please watch out for our big reveal! But in the meantime, this is just a sneak peek to what we have in store!!

We are offering small group exercise classes for kids and teens with neurodiverse brains!

To summarise:

🤸‍♀️ We are launching a program called KidsMOOV. KidsMoov is an exercise class incorporating heavy work exercise, core strength, joint stability, balance, coordination, and aerobic fitness. For some kiddos, calm and regulation come from this heavier work form of exercise.

🧘‍♀️ We also have kids yoga with the amazing Sarah Munro! A space for kids to move calmly, gently, and channel some inner zen.

Both classes offer different vibes and different styles - but both classes have the same goal: to provide a sensory aware and inclusive space for children and teens to work on their physical fitness, gross motor skills, self-confidence, self regulation and overall wellbeing, and in understanding environment.

At the moment, all of our classes are running in our Erina clinic. But watch out, there are more coming soon!! Here are our current classes, which will be running in line with school terms:

KIDS MOOV classes:
✔️ Mondays 4:30-5:30pm: 11-13 year olds
✔️ Wednesdays 4pm-4.30pm: 7-10 year olds
✔️ Saturdays 3pm-3:30pm: 4-5 year olds
✔️ Teens class time TBC

KIDS YOGA classes:
✔️ Wednesdays 4pm-4:30pm: 7-10 year olds
✔️ Wednesdays 4:30pm-5:15pm: 14-18 year olds

One-on-one initial assessments are an encouraged option prior to participation in the group program, especially if your child has particular challenges with their gross motor skills or with self-regulation. This is so that we can make accommodations in the class 😊

We understand that groups are not for everyone, and we certainly offer one-on-one exercise therapy.

There is more to come - I am very excited to share!!! But for now, if you're interested in our programs for your child or teen, we would LOVE to hear from you. We have intakes starting in February, which is just around the corner. There are only 6 children per class, so if you're interested in securing your spot, please do not hesitate to reach out!

Hi everyone! My name is Rhiannon, and I am one of the paediatric exercise physiologists at Conveniently Active Kids!

Conveniently Active Kids is a space for kids and teens between the ages of 3-18 years of age where they can move their bodies and engage in exercise to help boost their physical fitness and development, as well as optimise their mental health and self-confidence.

My area of speciality is helping kids and teens who might have issues with pain, trips and falls, reduced hand eye coordination, hypermobility, neurodiverse brains, neurological conditions, a wide range of disabilities, reduced strength and endurance.

We can help with the following areas for all levels of ability:

✔️ Joint strength and stability (important for our hypermobile kiddos!)
✔️ Core and trunk strength and stability
✔️ Whole body muscle strength
✔️ Aerobic fitness and exercise tolerance
✔️ Coordination, reaction time, and balance
✔️ Self-regulation, improved mental health, and stress management

I offer both one-on-one exercise physiology consultations, as well as small exercise groups.

The first step is to book an initial assessment, where we can meet your child, go through some exercise tests and goal setting, and determine an individualised exercise plan. For some people, this might be frequent supervised sessions (whether that be one-on-one EP or a group), and for others, they might benefit from less frequent sessions with some home exercises to work on. Every child is different, and every plan is individualised.

We have an amazing space on Karalta Rd in Erina. We also offer home visits, hydrotherapy, and school visits across the entire Central Coast.

We accept a wide variety of referrals, including GP chronic disease management plans, NDIS, and private referrals.

To learn more, please shoot us through a message or email or give us a call during business hours.

🌟 Starting with an Initial Consultation sets your child up for success 🌟

When your child begins a new therapy or support, those first steps matter. An initial consultation at Conveniently Active Kids helps us understand your child’s strengths, needs, sensory preferences and goals so we can build a plan that truly fits them.

It’s calm, gentle and completely personalised. We get to know your child, listen to you, and create a movement plan that supports confidence, participation and progress.

If you’re beginning new supports in 2026, start with clarity, support and a team that genuinely cares.

💛 Book your child’s initial consultation today.

Did you know that some children and teens find heavy work exercises to be a very effective way to self-regulate and calm the nervous system?

For many kids, slower and gentler exercise modalities such as yoga and stretching works really well - but for some kids, they can often find these types of exercise to be very uncomfortable and become restless and even more dysregulated! In fact, they might find heavy-work styled exercise to be a more regulating and calmer style!

So what is heavy work?

Heavy work involves activities that engage large muscles and joints with effort—through pushing, pulling, lifting, carrying, or resisting force—to provide strong proprioceptive input that helps the nervous system organize, calm, and regulate and emotions.

Examples can include active play styles of heavy work such as pushing laundry baskets of toys or books around the home, climbing and jumping/landing from playground equipment, pushing flying foxes...the list goes on!

Other examples can include more structured forms of heavy work with weights, exercise bands, reformer machines, and body weight exercises. In the video, this kiddo is on a cross-trainer, pushing and pulling against resistance, and this is an example of heavy work!

The key is to keep the exercise individualised, fun, engaging, motivating, and challenging yet manageable for the young person 😊 💪

We aren't saying that yoga and stretching and calmer forms of exercise do not work because for many children, they certainly do! But for many young ones, higher intensity and heavy input can be a calming experience for them!

It's all about individualised programs!

Not sure where to start? Our paediatric exercise physiologists are based in Erina, and we offer school visits, hydrotherapy, and home visits across the entire Central Coast!
