Physie is a sport for girls. Girls can start as young as 3 years in our tinies class and we have ladies well into their 60s still enjoying their Physie. Physie suits all types of girls. There is no prerequisite to enjoy this unique sport.
We also offer a Novice Ladies class for ladies that have never tried Physie or have been out of the sport for more than 15 years.

Usually 3-year-olds are able to cope with our tinies class. This class is designed to teach girls to concentrate, build confidence in performing and start to teach the basic Physie positions. At Balgowlah Physie, the first 2 lessons are obligation free, so the best way to gauge if a girl is ready for the tinies class is to come along and try it out.
