Testimonials

"I’d like to thank Active UTAS for the wonderful programs available to UTAS Staff. I participated in the Swim/Stroke Development Course at AMC with Mel recently and found it to be very beneficial. Mel was a fantastic instructor and the tips and instruction she provided was so valuable. "
Natalie (Launceston)
"I have participated in the rowing, swimming stroke improvement classes, and Body Attack on Wednesday mornings. I have really enjoyed these activities which have pushed me beyond my comfort zone and introduced me to new activities and colleagues, and reintroduced things that I haven’t done since I left high school. "
Matthew (Launceston)
"I am so glad that I discovered the Cognitive Change Program. It was just what I needed to kick start a new routine of health and fitness. It is only a start, but the pacing of the Program over twelve weeks meant that we made a commitment to keep going for that time and by the end of it I had really started to feel the benefits. "
