What is object manipulation?

Object manipulation is related to gymnastics and circus skills. Students explore physical and creative expression through poi, flower sticks, hoola hoops, bubbles, staff and juggling.

 

Why do you need Thought Sport?

Recent research has shown that Australian children lead the world in obesity, and we are all familiar with the health risks obesity brings- not to mention the psychological traumas of low self esteem, isolation and bullying.

 

 

We promote a non-competitive alternative sport which stresses collaboration and individual development in a fun, motivating and pressure free setting.

Our programs and equipment are recreation based, not performance or competition based.

We believe that if a person feels successful in and enjoys the activity, they are much more likely to maintain it as part of a life long learning.
