Aerobics Activities

Sport
Aerobics has its roots in the fitness industry where the sport
first began some 10 years ago. Major sponsorship and World
Champions such as Marcus lrwin and Sue Stanicy took the sport
far beyond the realms of most aerobics class enthusiasts and
as such helped re-define the current spectacle that forms
Sport Aerobics.
Sport Aerobics can involve participation as an Individual,
a Pair, or a Team of three or four athletes.
Routines typically last up to 1 minute fifty seconds and contain
a mix of high energy aerobic movements, artistic and difficulty
elements.
A Panel of Judges who take into account the combined appeal
of the above routine components as well as the execution of
all such components judge the sport.
Whilst still developing as a discipline, the ultimate goal
for Sport Aerobics is to be included within the Olympic Games
program; a goal which is well within reach as Australian athletes
and officials continue to prove their worth on both the National
and International platform.
