Splash Core Force

Splash Core Force is our paediatric Pilates group program, designed to help children build strength, stability and body awareness in a fun, supportive setting. Led by a physiotherapist, each session begins and ends with guided mindfulness and grounding activities, helping children connect movement with calm, focused awareness.

Research shows that Pilates-based programs can improve flexibility, strength, postural control, balance, and overall quality of life in children. Splash Core Force uses this evidence-based approach to help children build the physical foundations they need to participate confidently, both in therapy and in everyday life.

Is Splash Core Force right for my child?

The program may be recommended for children who:

• Have reduced strength, low muscle tone, hypermobility or difficulties with motor planning and coordination.

• Have range of motion or flexibility goals that require lifelong maintenance.

• Are building core strength, endurance or proprioception.

• Are transitioning towards community-based group exercise programs and want to build lifelong enjoyment of physical activity.

• Would benefit from mindfulness and grounding strategies to support anxiety or self-regulation.

What’s included?

• Weekly 1-hour group Pilates sessions, held during the 10 week school term with the option to join for shorter blocks.

• Guided mindfulness and grounding meditation at the start and end of each session.

• Delivered by a physiotherapist at our Werribee clinic, in a small group of 6–8 children.

• Goals set and reviewed in collaboration with your child’s treating therapist which will be reviewed and a summary provided with their progress and recommendations for next steps
