Stay active over Summer with holiday workouts

While the South Bank Fitness Centre will temporarily close from 14 December 2026 to 4 January 2027 for the Christmas and New Year shutdown, members can stay fit at home with a range of workouts, fitness challenges, and wellbeing resources.

Fitness Centre Manager Aurelio Machado has developed the holiday workouts, which feature a collection of easy-to-follow workout programs designed to keep people moving throughout the holiday season.

Aurelio said staying active over the festive break can help people maintain energy levels, support their wellbeing and fight off the festive kilos that often creep on with end-of-year celebrations.

"Christmas and New Year can be a busy time, but even short workouts that keep you moving, help you stay healthy and help you start the new year feeling your best can make a big difference," Aurelio said.

"The workouts provide simple and effective exercises that can be completed at home, outdoors or while travelling, helping members stay on track until the Fitness Centre reopens."

The holiday workouts include a variety of options suitable for different fitness levels, as well as challenges and resources focused on maintaining healthy habits during the festive break.

Members can access the workouts at any time throughout the closure and are encouraged to follow Aurelio's workouts and fitness tips to stay motivated over the break.

To ensure members are not disadvantaged, we will suspend all Fitness Centre membership payments during the closure period.

The South Bank Fitness Centre team thanks members for their understanding and support while the campus works are carried out and looks forward to welcoming everyone back in 2027.
