Our new team member out & about
Our new Marketing Executive, Catherine Coram, wasted no time settling in after starting with us last week — she's already out connecting with some of the passionate people who make Strength for Life such a success.
Catherine’s first visit took her to Viva Fitness at Kidman Park, home to one of our largest Strength for Life groups and recently named South Australia’s Best Gym for 2025 by The Advertiser. Meeting with Dennis O’Donnell was inspiring! Dennis’s motto to his clients is: “Invest time in staying independent” - a reflection of his commitment to combining fitness with friendship to keep older adults active and connected.
Creative connections at Turramurra, Highbury
Catherine also had the pleasure of visiting the Turramurra Recreation Centre, she was inspired by the fun and thoughtful ways Strength for Life instructors keep participants engaged — from a lively Community Board to a clever Brain Teaser that gets everyone thinking and smiling.
It’s these small but powerful touches that build connection and keep sessions fresh and motivating.
