Shedding Australia…

The Forest Retreat Studio.

Shedding Australia has been created to help you become a Stronger and More Athletic version of yourself.

The Forest Retreat Studio combines the gym, a yoga studio, a Pilates studio, a physio’s rooms, a boxing club - all under one roof.

We bridge the gap between Physiotherapist and Personal Trainer.

Located at 11 Clifford Way Valley View Adelaide SA, the Forest Retreat Studio is the place where you can be comfortable. Where sessions combine training and treatment.

The place where you can ‘Shed Something’.

Stress. Pain. Lack of Mobility. Lack of Skill. A feeling of weakness.

Is it time you ’Shed Something’ and started living with all your Heart, Mind, Soul & Strength?

Welcome home.

Our Philosophy - What do we do?

The Shedding Australia Method is Simple

Step 1

Establish Priority: What are you wanting to shed?

Identify what you want to lose and what you want to gain; what you’d rather carry than be weighed down by - This is analysis.

  • Shed some unwanted weight

  • Shed stiffness or a lack of mobility

  • Shed pain; gain freedom

  • Shed weakness; gain strength

  • Shed stress; gain energy

  • Shed a lack of skill; gain ability

  • Shed your burden…

Step 2

Establish Path: What does the route look like to getting there?

Identify where you are now and where you want to be: “we overestimate what we can do in 3 months but underestimate what we can do in a year” - This is assessment.

Right Now…

  • Weight - Under, Just Right, Over

  • Mobility - Restricted, Ok, Mobile

  • Pain - Present, Intermittent, Free

  • Strength - Low, Average, Strong

  • Stress - Struggling, Coping, Thriving

  • Skill - Unskilled, Capable, Skilled

Step 3

Establish Pattern: What does your new routine look like?

Identify your new pattern. What does your season look like? When are you going to peak? - This is programming. This is Training & Treatment.

From HERE to THERE…

  • Daily Routine

  • Weekly Routine

  • Seasonal Routine

When will you Progress?

When will you Peak?

When will you Rest?

What do you do now?

“I saw how someone I knew was changing, shedding aspects of their life they didn’t want, becoming the person they did want. I thought maybe I need some Simon in my life too.”
