Teen Gym

Getting your teenager started with a MOVE Teen membership is a positive step forward by encouraging, developing and nurturing positive healthy exercise habits. 

This will not only set them up with a multitude of health benefits, but also establish a health and fitness relationship that will last a lifetime.

Here at MOVE, we acknowledge the growing need to ensure that adolescents should be pursuing regular physical activity. One of the ways in which we can do our part to help teenagers in our local community achieve this, is with a MOVE Teen Gym membership.

A MOVE Teen Gym Membership is exclusively available for 13-15 year olds, providing access to supervised Teen Gym sessions and access to the gym and aquatic facilities. Parent / guardian supervision is required in the gym until the first BEGIN appointment has been attended.

*Please note the MOVE Teen Membership can not be purchased online.
You must visit Ascot Vale Leisure Centre or Keilor East Leisure Centre in person with a parent/carer present to purchase the membership.
Your first BEGIN appointment must be booked in at time of membership purchase.

Teen Gym hour

A MOVE Teen membership provides access to our Teen Gym Hour sessions, which are available Monday to Friday at both Ascot Vale Leisure Centre and Keilor East Leisure Centre.

These alternate between sessions of circuit / functional training, and age-appropriate strength training. All our sessions are conducted and supervised by our Trainers, to ensure that all exercises are performed safely and correctly.

Keilor East Leisure Centre:
4:00pm - 5:00pm | Monday to Friday

Ascot Vale Leisure Centre:
4:00pm - 5:00pm | Monday to Friday

Getting started

All new MOVE members start with our free BEGIN induction. As a MOVE Teen member, you'll get three complimentary sessions with a fitness trainer to set your goals, get a personalised workout plan and learn how to safely use gym equipment.

The first BEGIN session must be attended with a parent or guardian. Follow-up sessions help track progress and adjust your plan as needed.

Our team is always available for quick tips, equipment help, or posture checks.

If you need additional support, a dedicated one-on-one training session can be scheduled anytime outside of our dedicated Teen Gym Hour.

We suggest that if you’re still uncertain about whether this is right for your teenager, why not make an appointment to speak to one of our trainers.

Our Teen Gym membership is a recurring weekly direct debit. Once you sign up, you can suspend your membership for up to six-weeks without any additional cost.

We understand that the gym can seem like an intimidating place for people, but the MOVE team are here to ensure that nobody feels intimidated whilst working out.

Booking into a BEGIN appointment when you first join will allow you to connect with one of our team, and they will be able to introduce you to various equipment on the gym floor, explain how to use it safely and correctly, so that you can continue to utilise your membership and visit the gym with confidence.

We do not tolerate intimidating or threatening behaviour from anybody at our venues, and if anybody experiences this during their visit, we encourage them to alert our team as soon as possible.

They will need to bring a sweat towel with them for every visit. This is a requirement for anybody choosing to workout in the gym or a group fitness class. We also encourage them to bring a reuseable drink bottle. We do have drinking fountains available on site, as well as a kiosk that sells drinks. There are also mats available on the gym floor to use for stretching.

Parents / guardians are encouraged to drop off / pick up their teenager for their Teen Gym sessions. This helps to build their independence and confidence navigating their way around the facility before and after their session. In the interest of safety we recommend parents drop off and pick up their teenager from the entry of the venue.

If you are a parent and already a MOVE member, why not bring your workout gear as well? You could enjoy a group fitness class, gym workout, swim some laps or just relax in our spa / steam / sauna area whilst your teen is in the gym being active.

If you're not a current member, but would like to become a MOVE member as well, why not look at the various membership options we have available.
