WELCOME TO KALLARA CALISTHENICS!
Calisthenics is uniquely Australian and promotes teamwork, self-confidence and friendship. Team members develop an appreciation for music, dance, acting, strength, flexibility and performance skills. People of all ages enjoy this wonderful sport and thrive on the variety of challenges offered. The benefits of calisthenics are endless – lifelong friendships, confidence, poise, coordination, team spirit, mental alertness, fitness, muscle flexibility... the list goes on!
Calisthenics combines the best aspects of sport and the performing arts. As a sport, it encourages physical development, coordination, self-discipline and team spirit. As an art, it develops an appreciation of music, rhythm, the beauty of correct technique and the excitement of performing. The word calisthenics derives from the Greek words kalos, meaning beauty and sthenos, for strength. Calisthenics is a team sport in which pupils learn routines choreographed to music and present them on stage at competitions and concerts.
Here at Kallara Calisthenics, we strive for continued excellence through the correct teaching of Calisthenic technique in this uniquely Australian sport by fostering a sense of teamwork, confidence and commitment during classes. Our mission is to provide a variety of experiences in calisthenics, dance and drama.
