14.01.2022 A wonderful post by a fellow Standing Strong Licensee. Anxiety can be controlling at times which is why we are helping more young people to develop the knowledge and tools to be able to acknowledge the feelings but also take action to manage those feelings. This week our participants will learn coping strategies such as Yoga, mindfulness and breathing techniques. #mentalhealth #preventioniskey #bringontheadventureswa #standingstrong #wellness #adventureconnections #cityofjoondalup #cityofwanneroo #youthempowerment #perthparents #lemonadekids
12.01.2022 To all our Standing Strong teens, and our younger ones in Primary School, we hope you can find strength in this difficult time. Take time for self care and really listen to what you need right now. Breathe and talk to your loved ones because we are all in this together and trust me the more you open up and share your feelings, the more you will realise that others have the same worries and concerns. Be safe and we are here for you virtually, until we can see each other again in person soon. Don’t forget to sit outside and enjoy nature for at least 30 minutes a day, feel the grass under your toes, smell a flower

Kym began mentoring at the Standing Strong HQ in Victoria Park and saw the program benefit so many young people that she couldn't wait to become a Standing Strong Licensee. Kym is a qualified ...teacher and is passionate about mental health and helping educate our young people about how to Stand Strong in a rapidly changing world.

08.01.2022 Do your children struggle to engage in exercise in fear of it being 'hard' or 'boring?' Parents, we know how you feel!! Time and time again, children will come... into our classes feeling nervous and unsure of what to expect in our STRONG Body component. Did you know that only 1 in 7 children in Australia currently meet the national guidelines for physical activity!? While there are many factors that may influence this, often this is due to a negative idea of what 'exercise' really is. It is so important for children to learn that movement can be EMPOWERING, EXCITING, ENGAGING and FUN!! Look at how much fun our boys and HQ team member Abe had in a program at one of our clubs recently! With guidance, children can learn to enjoy movement free of pressure and expectations. You could try this at home by: - Going for a family walk and playing a 'scavenger hunt game' to see what materials you can find. - Playing 'the floor is lava' and jumping from pillow to pillow - Trying fun yoga poses while playing a 'try not to laugh' game - Challenging each member of the family to beat their personal bests in running, planking or holding a tricky pose! We can all work together to make movement just as fun and exciting as it should be!
08.01.2022 Happy #WorldKindnessDay. How do you implement kindness in your day? Is this something that you think about? Let's make kindness the new normal #mentalhealth #preventioniskey #bringontheadventureswa #wellbeing #standingstrong #actbelongcommit

05.01.2022 What is Standing Strong? We are so excited to have reached so many of you over our social media pages these past few weeks and would like to introduce ourselves. We are one of the many clubs across the globe that fall under Standing Strong. Standing Strong is a wellness club that was created to provide support, connections and tools for young people to thrive and reach their full potential. These ‘tools’ allow young people to improve their confidence, resilience, self-awar...eness and SO MUCH MORE. The aim of our programs are for all children to feel happy, strong, loved and supported and do this through sessions targeted at their BODY, MIND and HEART. We MOVE our bodies to feel strong (without judgement or pressure), we DISCUSS topics that matter to us (such as things we may be struggling with) and RELAX with mindfulness activities to calm our minds and feel good We offer term based programs, holiday workshops, one-on-one mentoring and can even come to your school and run programs or sessions there! These programs are split based on age groups to ensure content and connections are age appropriate We are SO excited to bring you along on this journey with us to help our young people STAND STRONG! Our term programs commence in only two weeks. If you are interested and would like to book a trial class please send us a message to book your spot. Adventure Connections is a social enterprise that donates programs to those experiencing suffering from social and economic disadvantage. We assist disadvantaged young men, women and their families to advance their sense of self worth, confidence and emotional and social wellbeing through the provision of educational health, wellness and recreation based programs. We believe everybody deserves to live life to the fullest and sometimes we need some extra support to become that person. If this is you we have scholarships available, please send us an email or reach out via messenger #standingstrong #standingstrongclubs #wellnessclub #PreventionIsBetterThanCure #PerthTweens #perthfamilies #currambinecommunitycentre #cityofjoondalup #mentalhealth #facetheworldstandingstrong

02.01.2022 The best way to make children good is to make them happy. - Oscar Wilde One of our aims at Standing Strong is to create a safe and supportive space for chil...dren to simply BE without pressure or expectations. We do this through activities, open discussions, mindfulness and authentic interactions in a space where they are free to create connections with other children Often, the outside world and media can be overwhelming and can force children to grow up too quickly. Fear, anxiety, confusion and stress often arise as they struggle to cope with the constant information, noise and pressure. Standing Strong provides their safe space to enjoy being young and having fun. No matter what is happening everywhere else, these children can enjoy the moment and the freedom of being young If you would like to create a space that fosters comfort and safety for children to connect, contact us at www.standingstrongclubs.com today
