iKiFit PARTNERS WITH HOUSING NSW BUILDING STRONGER COMMUNITIES TO DEVELOP iKiCREW
- from September 2010

iKiFit will develop, manage and implement training, capacity building, development, mentoring and leadership for 12 identified social housing residents from the Dubbo area.  This is an exciting project that will see an opportunity for our youth to gain employment as instructors with iKiFit, as well as enhance confidence and skill levels.

As a result of support and funding provided by Housing NSW Building Stronger Communities, iKiFit will be targeting individuals aged 16 and 25, with an emphasis on Aboriginal and social housing residents. 

iKiFit is seeking the assistance of local high schools, as well as employment and service providers, in promoting the project to our target group.  We will provide demonstration days, workshops and mentors to encourage individuals to become participants in the iKi Crew project.

The iKi Crew project will initially run over a seven-month period in which participants will undergo intensive training and refining of skills, and will be able to identify appropriate certification training in line with this. 

iKiFit provides fitness, wellness, mentoring and behaviour management designed specifically for our youth. iKiFit combines elements of martial arts, dance, and aerobics to create an interactive fitness program that equips and enables.  We are thrilled to be able to partner with Housing NSW Building Stronger Communities to develop our unique iKi Crew program.  The ultimate aim is to empower our youth with employable skill sets, and the capacity to obtain employment.
