ABOUT ROUSE HILL PHYSIE

At Rouse Hill Physie, we proudly teach the BJP Physical Culture curriculum. BJP Physie is the oldest running and most prestigious Physical Culture establishment in Australia. For over 125 years, BJP has provided a national platform for Physie clubs to come together to engage in competitions and camaraderie

“Physie is an elegant way of developing not only fitness but also grace, strength and focus in our girls and women. At BJP, what we are most proud of is how Physie weaves its way throughout the lives of Australian families. Generations of women have discovered lifelong friendships, a true sense of community and a sport for life in Physie.”

– Jackie Rawlings, BJP Physical Culture

EMPOWERING GIRLS FOR LIFE

 

There is an aura of confidence around Physie girls of all ages. Taught to stand tall, with strength and pride, they are team players committed to achieving their goals.

 

Unlike some ballet and dance studios, Rouse Hill Physie focuses on developing the self­-esteem of its students. By teaching them to have a positive relationship with their bodies, we help students blossom with confidence and self­-assurance.

 

BJP Physie is passionate about nurturing students’ total well-being, in both mind and body. Physie is an accepting and encouraging team sport, where every member is supported and motivated to be the best they can be.

Physie was a part of my life as a young girl, so when I looked for dancing for my 3 year old daughter, we found Rouse Hill Physie. Now 8 years later, Chloe, Chelsea and I are all a huge part of this amazing, fun, family orientated Club. Physie is so great for our fitness, posture and core body strength. We all look forward to our classes, and learning new routines each year. Not to mention the great times we have with the lifelong friends we have met along the way - Barb Hogan
