Programs and Courses
We provide the skills, support, motivation and opportunities for people to gain courage and achieve their dreams.
Work Places
Zoom drinks and trivia nights are fun but it’s time to change it up a bit. It’s more important than ever to find ways to connect and interact with your team- fostering the cohesion, creativity and morale that can sometimes be lacking working from home.
Organising a team building activity is a great way to say ‘thank you’ to your team, by having a day where they will bond with each other, and realise how appreciated all their hard work is.

Success Stories
I was in despair about everything, especially the loss of my valued yoga and pilates classes. I was sitting there and wondering what I was going to, when suddenly a FB message popped from TSA about PT sessions. I was so grateful that I was immediately able to get Molly as my trainer, and I started to feel instantly motivated. Molly is an absolute delight!!! I had so many enjoyable sessions with Molly. These sessions were an absolute highlight of my week, I really valued the opportunity. Not only did these sessions help motivate me and keep up my fitness, but it was a great opportunity to have some personal contact with someone. I spent more time with Molly than my family and friends! Molly has been encouraging and has continually tailored the sessions to suit my needs.
So, a huge thank you to TSA for replying to my initial request so quickly. And a massive thanks to Molly for being such a delightful person and a great trainer.
Thanks. Jodi
Live and Self-Paced Programs
Webinars, workshops and live interactive sessions to inspire and motivate you

We may not be able to hike together at the moment, but now more then ever is it more important to be a part of a like minded community who make you feel connected and seen.
This is the best time to do something for you- whether it’s a learn to navigate workshop, a meal planning program or a 28 day fitness and motivation challenge, you will come away with new knowledge, skills, and a sense of satisfaction that you’ve done something good for yourself.

Community & Support
You are not alone. We are all on a journey to reach the top of our personal mountain. We will support and encourage you through sharing experiences, expert advice, shared social events and a community of like minded people.
Climb The Mountain
No more flatlining. Identifying your purpose – your ‘Why’ – is the secret ingredient to living your best life. Visualizing your mountain, the place you want to get to, helps guide your actions and gives you the courage to create your own story.

Discounts on all our courses
We recognise and celebrate that everyone’s journey is different. Let us help you get you off the couch and up your mountain. We love helping people like you. Whether it be adventures, fitness, mindset or educational workshops, come join our journey and learn more here.
Our Live and Self-Paced Courses
Our live workshops are fun, educational and interactive. They are a great way to book in some ‘you’ time, have a bit of social interaction with likeminded people, ask questions, and learn a trick or two! We keep our numbers capped to allow for a more personal experience where we can all interact. Prefer to go it alone in your own time or can’t make it to the live webinar? The self-paced option is for you. Pick it up whenever suits and fit it around your schedule while still getting a comprehensive & thorough tutorial.
The Messy Truth About Busyness and Recovery
Yesterday I did something I almost never do. After a beautiful walk at Warramate Hills, I came home, had a shower, sat at my desk and opened my computer, fully intending to get stuck into an afternoon of work I’d promised myself I would do. Instead, I spent the rest of the day watching Netflix.…
Why a Life Worth Living Includes Struggle
We say it all the time… I just want to be happy. We say it about our kids, our partners, our friends. It sounds simple, kind, and right. But somewhere in that sentence, something quietly slips away. Because maybe the goal isn’t just happiness. Maybe it’s something deeper, something more real.
Avoiding Risk is Riskier Than You Think
Most of us like to imagine we’re sensible when we avoid risk. We don’t leap from cliffs, we don’t sprint across busy roads, and we keep our lives orderly. That means we’re staying safe and living our lives to the fullest by actually staying alive, right? Well here’s the catch: safety is not the same…
Let’s Talk About Energy
Energy can mean plenty of different things for nature, plants, machines, and especially for living creatures – that’s us! It doesn’t just apply to the physical kind of energy that Zumba coaches seem to have endless amounts of, it also applies to the emotional and social energy, the kind we share with each other. These…
Future-Proof Your Knees for a Happier Life
Despite what you may think, your knees aren’t fragile, but they are certainly honest. Don’t consider it an act of betrayal if they ache, because they’re doing their job by sending a message that something upstream (hips, core, technique) or downstream (feet, shoes, stride) needs attention. Think of it as a team meeting between your…
A New Era of Wellbeing is Here
When we first started Take Shape Adventures, it grew faster than we ever expected. What began from a background in nutrition and fitness quickly took us into the great outdoors with our clients, where they experienced the benefits of moving your body outside the four walls of your standard gym. When we made that move,…
Turn Your Trust Inwards
When we talk about trust, it’s usually about others. We trust our friends to show up when we need them. We trust our colleagues to deliver on time. We trust leaders to guide and make decisions for the good of the team. We trust our systems to keep us safe. But what about the trust…
The Best Medicine You’re Not Taking
This morning on our beginner-friendly walk in beautiful Warburton, something magical happened. Sure, we moved our bodies. We huffed a little up hills, stretched our stride on the flats, and caught our breath beside the river. But it wasn’t the fitness that made it memorable. It was the feeling. That spark. That moment of childlike…
Scratching the Itch You Can’t Name
There’s this itch. A vague, low hum under the surface. You can’t name it, and maybe you’ve never even tried. But you know it’s there. It reminds me of that U2 song, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For. That lyric has stuck with me for decades. Because honestly, haven’t we all felt it?…
Stop Saying “Rest”. Do This Instead.
Let’s talk about rest. Because sometimes, it’s doing more harm than good. When we tell someone to “just rest”, what do we really mean? For many people, “rest” looks like collapsing on the couch, scrolling their phone, or binge-watching Netflix. But the problem is when the body is still, but the brain keeps spinning. Anxiety…
When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Use These Tips
You might be wondering why there’s a picture of a golfer here in an adventure blog — especially since we don’t exactly run golf trips. Unless, of course, you count swinging a hiking pole on a mountaintop! But stick with me, because there’s a point to it.
The Hiking Boot Myth We All Believe
Ask a new hiker why they wear boots and chances are they’ll say, “I need them for ankle support.” It’s a long-standing belief that boots are the safest, smartest way to hike, especially for beginners. But as someone who’s led thousands of people through wild terrain and up mountains, I can tell you something surprising:…
WHY CHOOSE
TAKE SHAPE ADVENTURES
FRIENDSHIP
Most of the people that come on our tours come by themselves. Our community is built on friendships that have been made on our trips, experiencing something life changing together, the shared memories and also goals to do more in the future! We encourage people not to be anxious about coming on these trips by yourself as we promise you will leave with some like minded friends and be really glad you made the decision to get out of your comfort zone and join in.
BELONG
Our community is our backbone. We have had so many people start with no hiking experience, basic fitness and not knowing anyone on our trips. These same people have gone on to do some incredible multi day hiking trips with us and their friends they have met in our community. Witnessing the development of their fitness, confidence, experience, friendships and happiness is why we do what we do. Come join us and let us help you get from the couch to the top of the mountain!
ADVENTURE
Experiences, not things. The moments that take your breath away. The feeling of accomplishment and the realisation that you are capable of so much more than what you thought. The views that blow your mind and the ticking off of bucket list items. We take all the hard work out of it for you. We organise the lot so you can just turn up and get the best of your experience without all the headaches of organising/logistics. We make it easy for you to do all the thing you want to do – you just need to turn up and be ready to jump into life!
