Hi there, Shire Insiders!
I’ve removed the Live Music Listing from this week’s edition, as last week’s edition was too long and got cut off 😭 .
If that part of the newsletter was important to you, please let me know if it should be added back in to future editions.
It’s a quieter week this week, with the long weekend. Many venues may be closed or have adjusted hours.
The perfect time to relax, spend time with family, and indulge in Easter treats 🐰
In today’s edition:
Inner Warrior Awakened - local business spotlight
📆 12 fun events happening this week
Let’s get to it.

Local Business Spotlight
Hi, I'm Ally – founder of Inner Warrior Awakened, a unique training studio based in Kirrawee and proudly serving the Sutherland Shire. With over 15 years of experience as both a personal trainer and disability/community support worker, I created IWA to be a space where ability is celebrated, and every individual is seen beyond their diagnosis. |
At IWA, we specialise in working with children, young adults, and elderly individuals living with physical, intellectual, or neurological disabilities—including autism, cerebral palsy, ODD, and seizure disorders. We also support those navigating degenerative conditions like Parkinson’s, as well as people experiencing depression, anxiety, or social overwhelm—especially those who feel alienated by mainstream gyms. |
Community engagement is at the heart of everything we do. Whether you're training in our Kirrawee studio or prefer sessions in the comfort of your own home, IWA is about building strength, confidence, and connection in a safe, judgment-free space.
As a mum of six, with two dogs and a loving partner, I understand that life is full and complex—and that’s why IWA meets people where they are, literally and emotionally. Let’s redefine what strength looks like—together.
