At Coffs Harbour Exercise Physiology, we believe every movement should take you closer to living the life you want. We work with people of all ages, from athletes seeking gains in performance, to older adults aiming to maintain independence and prevent falls, to those preparing or recovering from surgery. Each plan is designed by our Masters qualified exercise physiologists to suit your body, your pace and your goals.
Our goal is to help you build practical, long-term habits that support the management and prevention of chronic conditions, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, musculoskeletal changes and more. Every program is individually tailored, with a focus on empowering you to take control of your health and move confidently towards a better quality of life.
Each one of our consultations begins with a thorough assessment to understand your goals, medical history and physical abilities. From there, our exercise physiologists develop an individualised program. When a plan is put in place it is continuously monitored and adjusted to support progress or a change in circumstances. Some examples we provide include:
Avalon Donovan works closely with clients of all ages. Avalon enjoys using a functional movement approach to build strength, fitness, balance, and mobility that directly support your individual goals. She takes the time to listen, communicate clearly, and create personalised plans to support meaningful outcomes.
Our private gym space on Vernon Street hosts both individual sessions and small group classes, including our over 50’s program, ensuring there is something for everyone, with a focus on guided, safe training.
Our over-50s strength, HIIT and balance classes run in small groups at our Vernon Street gym. Here’s what some of the people who come along each week have to say.
I have been attending both the strength and HIIT classes for over 50’s on Vernon Street for well over 12 months and I highly recommend them. Both Avalon and Aaron are knowledgeable, supportive and make the classes enjoyable and motivating. The small group environment makes me feel very comfortable and confident exercising at my own pace that I look forward to each week.
