Physical Culture is a marvelous way to develop healthy
minds and bodies whilst forming friendships that last a
lifetime.
Physical
Culture, or Physie is a sport for girls and women from 4
years up which aims to build confidence, good posture,
strength, fitness and flexibility through exercise and
dance.
Uniquely Australian, the Bjelke-Petersen School of Physical
Culture has been involved in the fitness of Australians for
well over a century.
The syllabus is updated annually, is performed to modern
music and comprises standing and floor exercises, aerobic
warm-ups, basic ballet, and modern dance.
Our Choreography is age appropriately designed to teach the
relationship of music to movement, rhythm, co-ordination,
balance, and musical interpretation.
The Physical Culture year culminates in a a series of
friendly competitions for both teams and individuals. These
are not compulsory, but they do help to foster a club
spirit, a sense of belonging, and club loyalty.
The National Junior Finals are held at Olympic Park Sports
Centre, Homebush Bay. The Senior and Ladies National Finals
are held each November in the Concert Hall of the Sydney
Opera House.
