Welcome to the Get Moving Tasmania website.

On this website you will find a range of physical activity information that can help you and your community get moving.

Get Moving Tasmania aims to increase the level of physical activity of all Tasmanians and promotes active and healthy lifestyles.

Physical activity helps shape strong, vibrant and inclusive communities and whether you are a community organisation, work place, school, club, family, or individual, participation in physical activity can deliver many benefits.

People who enjoy regular physical activity live longer, are less likely to have a heart attack or stroke and are less at risk of contracting bowel and other cancers.  Despite these benefits, almost 70% of Tasmanians undertake little or no significant physical activity.

Simply by walking to work, kayaking with the kids or umpiring the local soccer match for just 30 minutes every day can make all the difference to your health and wellbeing.

It’s never too late to start being active and for all Tasmanians to get moving now and feel great.

'Get Moving Tasmania' is a state-wide initiative that supports the development of a more physically active Tasmanian community. Get Moving Tasmania is an initiative of the State government and is coordinated as part of the Premier's Physical Activity Council (PPAC).
