The OWL Program - Optimal Weight For Life
The OWL Program: Supporting children to reach their optimal weight
The OWL Program is designed for children and teens above a healthy weight, offering guidance and support to help them reach their optimal weight and adopt a balanced lifestyle.
We work closely with children, teens, and their families, understanding that big changes can be challenging. Our team provides expert guidance, coaching, and encouragement to help build healthier habits in a way that’s both achievable and sustainable.
How do we do it?
We make fitness and healthy eating fun! By listening to what kids enjoy, we create a personalised program that keeps them engaged - whether it’s bike riding, trampolining, or a game of chasey.
Our goal is to help children develop healthier habits through enjoyable activities, installing a love for an active lifestyle and balanced nutrition.

The team provides constant support, and I’ve learned so much about healthy weight loss.
We are helping our granddaughter choose healthy food options by making healthier options for ourselves too.
The step-by-step guide made everything easy to follow.
It's a fantastic program—highly recommended!
