Learn to Run Courses with OzSquad

Have you always wondered how on earth people do it?

How do they just keep on running and running when you would probably choose to poke your eye out with a fork as a more pleasurable past-time?

You can find out how, and even be able to call yourself proudly a ‘Runner’ by the end of a six-week Learn to Run course with OzSquad. The course consists of one 90 minute group session a week along with a little running ‘homework’ and support by telephone and email.

You will learn about correct running form, breathing techniques, tackling hills, heart rate training and how to silence the voices telling you to stop as well as actually getting out running and building your core strength. The Learn to Run program is aimed at the complete beginner through to people who have run in the past and are keen to get back into it.

Carly is a Paceline accredited running coach and a proud ‘Runner’.

What Our Clients Say

“The Learn to Run program exceeded all my expectations. Before the course, I had never run more than about 800 metres without having to stop….by the end of the 6 weeks I was running 3km without stopping and continuing on to complete 5km using the run/walk technique. I can safely say I am now addicted…. I love to run and I love how I feel when I’ve done it! Carly is totally inspiring, encouraging and fun while providing fantastic techniques and information on how to do this thing called running! I would highly recommend the course to any beginner runners out there….go for it!!”
Sophie, Manly (Runner)

"I recently finished OzSquad’s Learn to Run course and I just got back from my first Park Run! 32:44 – looking forward to watching that time improve as the weeks go on but certainly something I would not have had the courage to attempt six short weeks ago! Woo Hoo!"
Marie

“I wanted to thank you for the Learn to Run course that we’ve just completed. I’ve hated running all my life and now, in my 50’s, and having completed the Learn to Run course I’ve realised that I will probably never love running, BUT – I CAN DO IT! My sense of personal achievement is huge, the endorphin level after each week was amazing and Carly’s patience and sense of fun was the catalyst for that. I will be maintaining some running as part of my fitness work and I recommend this course for anyone wanting to push themselves just a little, in a safe and protected group, and have fun while they are doing it.”

Thanks Carly for booking your fantastic and enthusiastic customers (seemed more like good mates!) on a mountain bike adventure in the Blue Mountains with Blue Mountain Bikes Australia. It was a great initiative and getting your crew to experience more of the awesome outdoors. Until next time!Sam

Before joining OzSquad, I hadn't run further than 10km. I'm writing this fresh off the back of completing my first ultra marathon - the UTA 50 in the Blue Mountains. I've been training with Carly & OzSquad for 3 years and I can honestly say I've never known a trainer to go above & beyond as much as Carly does. She leads by example in her fitness & her commitment to helping her OzSquaders achieve their goals is second to none. Join OzSquad and you'll meet some awesome people, get fit whilst having fun, and you might just achieve what you thought was 'unachievable'.

Really fun and social bootcamp in Manly, great way to get fit and meet new people. I wouldn't have thought I'd enjoy bootcamp so much, but Carly and the team are great, very friendly and inclusive with a good variety of classes and fun extra-curricular social activities - highly recommended!

Would definitely (and do!) recommend Oz Squad to my friends. Carly is a great coach and there is lots of variety to her classes, I have been attending for nearly a year and no two classes have been the same. The classes are suitable for all fitness levels and everyone is really friendly!

Carly, Linz and the OzSquad gang are awesome! Fantastic work outs on the beautiful Manly sea front..the best way to start your day!! 👍🏻

James King

After 3 years with OzSquad, I'm not only going to give credit for pushing me way beyond what I expected in my fitness goals, but also in establishing much of my social network in Manly. A bit of friendly competition in the sessions has a huge impact on my results, and the welcoming environment means it's a no brainer for me to highly recommend OzSquad. Just watch out for mentions of "the Ox" session with the burpee broad jumps ;-)

I felt every muscle in my body for 3 days…in a great way! Carly is incredibly knowledgable, positive and passionate. She is a great coach and personal trainer. Another great part about her sessions are the people that train with her. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. You will walk away feeling great.

Fantastic group of people to train with.What really sets it apart is how Carly makes it such a strong social community with lots of other non-fitness activities throughout the year.Has to be one of the funnest training environment ive been part of.

Highly recommend OzSquad. I joined 5 months ago specifically to get fit for climbing Mont Blanc in France. I've been going to the classes 3-4 times a week for those 5 months and I can safely say I'm the fittest I've ever been and as fit as I used to be when I was in the British Army. I prefer the morning classes which are well timed at 6am leaving enough time to get to work. I find the instructors the best. Both Carly and Lindsay are true professionals, knowledgeable and friendly. They are not like your typical gung-ho fitness instructors you see at Manly which makes them brilliantly unique. The sessions are varied from circuit training and weights to running and exploring the local surroundings. Watching the sunrise whilst working out has been great! I'll definitely be keeping up the classes when I get back from the mountain. Thanks OzSquad!

I can’t recommend OzSquad highly enough. Great to exercise outside in such an amazing location, but best of all are the great trainers. Carly takes the time to really understand what everyone wants to get out of the sessions, which of course can vary quite a bit person by person. I also found the people who go to OzSquad to be really welcoming and there are plenty of extra activities you can choose do with the group (or not) to get to know each other better e.g. rock climbing, stand up paddle boarding. Overall a great place to go to exercise!

I have never got such great results from my excercise as I do now from Carlys' sessions.The sessions are really varied the people are great and the sun rise over the ocean doesn't hurt. I would not hesitate to recommend guys and girls of all fitness levels to give Ozsquad a go.

I am 'from' Manly. I started with OzSquad's 'Learn to Run' course. The first roaming boot camp I did, I thought I was going to chunder. I didn't. My husband trialled it; 'boot camps aren't for me'I stuck it out with with running course; from hating running, I finished a half marathon!Three years later: Ozsquad is such a part of our lives - it's helped us to push ourselves physically and has been a way to make friends in Manly. Despite a serious injury which has meant I can't participate, Ozsquad has been there for me and I've been referred to the best clinicians for the job at every stage.I have pushed myself past what I ever thought I could achieve with Ozsquad - and I intend to continue that - once I'm cleared from my medical team!

Ozsquad gets 5 stars from me - not only is it fantastic fitness with sessions that are always different, Carly goes above and beyond to help you reach your fitness goals - you want to do a marathon - Carly will have the plan to you before hit enter. It's also very social with activities always going on. You get a free trial - so why not give it a go??

Training with OzSquad is an amazing experience! It's the best mornings of the week even if the alarm goes off very early. It's not only great work out that will get you in shape it will also give you spectacular views of Manly and new friends that always are ready for an outdoor activity involving sweat and hard work any day and time of the week. You just gotta love it!

You won't find a better work out north of the bridge with such an awesome bunch of people. Can't say it won't be hard....but it will certainly be worth it!

If you want to get a tight bod, Carly is your girl. She uses the right amount of push and motivation and at the same is really aware that everyone is at different fitness levels and caters to injuries. I love that every class is different so it's always an adventure. You'll laugh lots, sweat buckets, push your limits, feel amazing by 7am and want all you mates to join you!
