What we are about
At Totum our goal is to help you feel great and have fun doing it. Our mission, is to grow and support a creative movement community dedicated to excellence where everyone can explore the limits of their potential.
Our Practice
We teach a physical practice that activates the body’s innate intelligence and strength. By blending various disciplines, we create physical freedom and enhance performance. Our approach helps students build full-body strength and flexibility, strong mind-body awareness, and develop new neural pathways.
Foundations of our practice
body weight strength & calisthenics
spinal work
squat development
hand balancing & hanging
locomotion / soft acrobatics
Our Approach
Rather than just exercise, we regularly practice skills that build over time as you do. Every skill is broken down into small, achievable steps, ensuring continuous progress for students of all backgrounds. We emphasize mindful movement and intentional practice. Our focus includes developing spatial awareness, coordination, and effective ground movement.
We encourage practicing at the edge of your capabilities without just a fatigue seeking goal. Think of it as adult recess with seriously effective results.

Keen to try?
These workshops run on a Saturday at the beginning of each month and are our recommended entry point for anyone beginning a movement practice at Totum
Entry level strength, skill, conditioning, partner games, and soft mobility are all a part of the 2 hour Movement Practice Intro workshop.
Equally important is your introduction into the how and why of the practice.
Our purpose is to practice movement in order to feed our innately complex, creative, and intelligent bodies and then take that body knowledge into the outside world and throughout our daily activities. This is the place where you can develop your human capacities and search for joy as a mover.
The content in the class will align with the current skills and programming but the pace and progression of the skills taught will be approachable for beginners, and for current members wanting to refine the foundations.
Once you complete the Movement Practice Intro workshop, jump on our Welcome Pass - 14 Days Unlimited for $40 and continue.
What We Value
Physical Education
Welcome to Totum! We believe in empowering you to create your own user manual for your body through hands-on experience - the only way to truly learn. Our classes are designed to help you achieve health, wellness, and longevity. Here, you’ll find a supportive environment where you can experiment, practice, and grow. Expect to try, fail, succeed, and repeat as you discover new ways to connect with your body. You’ll learn to move with strength, agility, and grace, adapting to life’s demands with confidence and ease.
Results
Join us for a transformative journey! Our practice delivers deep, lasting results. You’ll become stronger, more flexible, and highly skilled. We focus on continuous growth, challenging you with new movements and skills that push your boundaries. With progressive training in gymnastics strength, calisthenics, bodyweight strength, locomotion, and weightlifting, you’ll always find the right level to advance. Our diverse classes cater to all skill levels and backgrounds, fostering a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. To maximise your benefits, we recommend attending at least three times a week.
Play
Play is a powerful tool for changing our thoughts, feelings, and actions. It enhances neuroplasticity by creating new connections in the prefrontal cortex, which governs movement, planning, decision-making, and social behavior. Play allows us to explore new possibilities in a stress-free environment, helping our bodies adapt and stay flexible. At Totum, we incorporate play into every class through Movement Situations and Movement Games, encouraging focused play where you can be fully present and enjoy the moment. This is powerful medicine for both body and mind.
Community
Our classes welcome all ages, abilities, and strengths. Partner work is integral, allowing everyone to step into the roles of teacher and observer, enhancing learning and adaptation. This interaction fosters a rich community centered around the shared goal of becoming better humans. Join us to train, practice, and grow together.
