MORE THAN A FITNESS SERVICE

At Ground Up, we don’t train workouts - we develop skills. Our focus is on the movements that matter most to everyday life:

  • Safe steps - walking with balance and stability

  • Standing from a chair - the gateway to mobility

  • Laying to sitting on the edge of the bed - beginning and ending every day

These are the bare minimum movements for long-term capacity - the big three that underpin independence.

Why the Floor Matters

Many older adults don’t realise they’ve lost the ability to get off the floor until they need it most, and that gap can have devastating consequences.

At Ground Up, we see the floor as a master movement. Safely practicing getting down and back up naturally develops the other abilities we rely on:

  • Rolling and pushing

  • Pulling and crawling

  • Bending forward and torso twisting

  • Reaching and lifting

When you practice the floor, you practice life.

Built for Living Well

We believe movement is about more than physical ability - it’s about dignity, freedom, and staying engaged with the world. Whether it’s fall prevention, recovery, or daily mobility, our programs are practical, adaptable, and grounded in respect.

Movement That Connects

Movement is more powerful when it’s shared. Ground Up creates opportunities for connection, laughter, and joy through both one-on-one and community-based sessions. Because staying active shouldn’t feel clinical - it should feel good.

No generic routines. No one-size-fits-all solutions.
Just movement designed to keep you steady, capable, and connected - from the ground up.
