Million Moves Welcomes New Play Well Grants to Help Australians Move More.

AUSactive’s Million Moves initiative is encouraging Australians, schools, workplaces and community groups to join a free national movement initiative as new Play Well Affiliate Grants support more opportunities for people to get active.

Australians are being encouraged to take advantage of new opportunities to get active, with the Australian Sports Commission announcing successful recipients of the Play Well Affiliate Grants aimed at helping more people participate in sport and physical activity.

The funding will support organisations across the country to deliver initiatives that break down barriers to participation and create more opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to move more and sit less.

This investment comes at a critical time. More than 75% of Australians are not meeting the recommended physical activity guidelines, while chronic health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, musculoskeletal disorders and mental health conditions continue to place significant pressure on individuals, communities and the health system.

🎬 BTS: Two big days. One shared vision.

It’s been a big week for the AUSactive team as we came together across two important industry events.

⭐ Monday - Leadership Forum. A day focused on leadership, collaboration, and the conversations shaping the future of our industry.

⭐ Tuesday - Active Australia Summit. Bringing the wider industry together to connect, share ideas and continue the conversation around building a healthier, more active Australia.

From early starts and behind-the-scenes moments to meaningful conversations with industry leaders, it’s been a fantastic two days for our team.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us, contributed to the conversations and helped make these two days so valuable. 🙌

Sometimes, finding your way forward means stepping back first.

After experiencing burnout and stepping away from the fitness industry, AUSactive Member Toni Plumb Fitness Trainer | Nutritionist | Specialising in Womens Health found her way back, this time, on her own terms.

Today, Toni runs small-group personal training sessions from her home studio, creating a safe and supportive space where women can move without judgement, build confidence and feel stronger in their bodies.

From starting with just a few classes to now running 13 weekly sessions with more than 50 regular members, Toni's journey is a powerful reminder that success doesn't always mean doing more. Sometimes, it's about finding a way of working that allows you to do what you love while staying true to your values.

As Toni says:

“Fitness is so much more than reps and sets.”

📖 Read Toni's inspiring WE ARE AUSactive story and discover the journey behind her passion for helping women move, grow and thrive.
