Discover Fun Fitness Activities for Everyone

Indoor Wall Climbing

Flex those arms and legs as you hop onto a rock wall and attempt to shimmy your way to the top. Indoor climbing gyms such as Climb Central^[1] have multiple routes of varying difficulties, and change these regularly so you can keep exploring new ways up the wall. For serious climbers, consider getting a belay certification so you and your friends can take turns to belay each other.

Details on the different types of passes Climb Central offers can be found on their website. Pick the option that suits your budget and get climbing!

Sabre Duelling

Be like your favourite Star Wars characters and take on your mates in a sabre duel! Far from just wielding a lighted sword, classes run by The Sabre Authority^[4] teach techniques such as attack lines, striking combinations, footwork patterns and defensive methods.

Dialogue in the Dark

What if you lived in a world without sight? This is the question posed by Dialogue in the Dark^[5], an hour-long tour that lets you experience this first hand. During the hour, you’ll navigate themed environments such as a typical housing estate, neighbourhood market and a park by the water, aided only by a white cane.

Through these tours, Dialogue in the Dark hopes to raise awareness and inclusiveness of people with visual and social impairments. Go with an open mind, and you might come away with a fresh perspective and a newfound appreciation of sight. Bookings are encouraged and rates can be found on their website for adults families and students aged 9 and above.

Archery Tag

If you’re a fan of the Hunger Games or Lord of the Rings, or simply looking for a fun new sport, pick up a bow and a foam-tipped arrow for a game of Archery Tag. Combat Archery^[7], which caters to students, parties and companies, will organise a series of games with different objectives. All you have to do is understand the game’s mission, and then fire away! Games start at $15 per pax. 

Flying Disc

Get outdoors for a game of flying disc, where your hand-eye coordination and aerobic fitness will be tested as you try to throw, run and catch the spinning disc on the go. This activity is best played at the beach or parks and is suitable for most ages. If you are keen to find out more about flying disc or would like to find a team to play with, you may check out the Singapore Flying Disc Association for events and information.^[8].
