Introducing Active Locals

Making connections through activity

Staying active isn’t just about fitness; it’s about connection. Research shows we’re far more likely to stay motivated when we exercise with others, but finding the right group or activity can be a challenge. In fact, a 2023 VicHealth study found that 74% of Australians who participate in group-based fitness activities maintain a more consistent exercise routine than those who work out alone.

Maybe you’re interested in learning how to play pickleball but aren’t sure how to find others to play with and learn. Or, you tried organising a friendly game of cricket with the family, but endless group chats made it a hassle.

That’s where Active Locals comes in, offering a simple way to connect with like-minded people and stay active without stress.

Find Your Community & Get Moving

Whether you're looking for a running club, a hiking group, a yoga session, or even a salsa dancing crew, Active Locals helps you find fitness groups and local events that match your interests and level.

Instead of digging through Facebook groups or WhatsApp chats, you’ll have everything in one place. Browse activities near you, join events, and discover new ways to stay active, all on your terms.

Easily Organise & Manage Your Activity Groups

Have you ever tried organising a weekend basketball match, only to find half of the group bail at the last minute? We’ve been there! Tracking RSVPs, reminding people to show up, and dealing with last-minute cancellations is a headache.
