About Us

My wife and I moved to the Southern Highlands from Sydney in November 2007 and eventually made contact with members of the Southern Highlands Vietnam Veteran association. It was through this group that I learnt of the Aqua Aerobics classes at the Annesley pool, run by Bounce Back 2 Health. I am a regular participant on both Tuesday and Thursday mornings where I enjoy the company of like-minded individuals who all gain a great deal from the excellent tuition from both Belinda and Laura. I continue to benefit and can highly recommend the classes.

I have been very fortunate and rewarded by using Bounce Back 2 Health since this business was established by Belinda Dowton some four years ago. In fact I have been using Belinda, formerly with Annesley, for a total of eight years! I surely wouldn’t be using Belinda (and Laura) for ongoing health, fitness and well being if they weren’t the best. Belinda and Laura are experienced Physiologists. Together they have been teaching and guiding me with exercise programs that are interesting and with a strong degree of variety. They show compassion, talent, knowledge and understanding in their “one on one” classes. Belinda and Laura give me the discipline to follow up their research in looking after my health. I had both my knees operated on back in April this year and Belinda, in particular, has been guiding me back to full movement and mobility with my five-six day workouts. Thanks girls for your excellent care and support during this time! I could not have been where I am today without your wonderful guidance and support.

As a long standing client of Bounce Back 2 Health my experience has been nothing but positive. Laura and Belinda have been most helpful, courteous and encouraging.

It has been great to participate in the Bounce Back 2 Health Type II Diabetes programme over the last 12 months. It has taught both of us to spend a little time each day exercising and now with very little effort, we are both seeing great benefits in our day to day health. We both find that the one hour we spend with Laura each Thursday really sets us up for the week, enabling us to do the things we like to do.

I have been going to Bounce Back 2 Health for 5 months now and am so happy with my programme and the difference it is making to my movement and pain. Laura is extremely knowledgeable, highly motivated and awesome to be around!

I have been seeing Belinda on a weekly basis for the past four years. I originally came for rehabilitation following bilateral hip replacements, yet enjoyed the sessions so much that I have continued for general fitness. Over this time I have experienced a significant improvement in my joint range of motion and strength, allowing me to go about my daily and leisure activities with greater ease and confidence.

I have found the staff at BB2H friendly while being proficient and professional. I can honestly say that I enjoy my sessions- there is always concern with compassion for me to achieve the best I can. My regime of exercise structured carefully by Laura is achieving results in lessening the pain and limitations that I had suffered for a number of years. I would have no hesitation in recommending BB2H to anyone.

Since commencing Exercise Physiology sessions with Belinda, our clients Gordon and Philip, have undergone significant changes in their physical capacity. Through improvements in their strength, balance and coordination, they now have greater confidence in their daily activities.

When I asked my doctor in 2014 about aqua aerobics as a substitute exercise for my not being able to walk for more than a few hundred metres without pain, he referred me to Bounce Back 2 Health. This was when I met up with Belinda again (as I had known her family for many years and delivered some of her uni ?snail mail? when I was relieving postie!). I subsequently joined my fellow Vietnam Veterans in aqua classes at Annesley with Belinda and Laura. As my mobility became more impeded mid-2016, I unfortunately had to abandon my exercise at Annesley. Sue then came to the Bundanoon Men?s Shed to give a talk on falls prevention and subsequently offered a group falls prevention class to our members. I went along to the classes and by now was on crutches, however Sue tailored special exercises for myself and another member also with a mobility problem. I went on to have major surgery involving removing my hip joint permanently in 2016. Whilst recovering in hospital I contacted Belinda to see if she would take on my post-op recover and help me ?Bounce Back 2 Health?. Her reply was ?no problem, leave it with me?. By now it was the mad Christmas period, but she was still able to come up with a couple of dates. Since then, both Belinda and Laura have been putting me through my paces twice weekly at the War Memorial Aquatic Centre in Moss Vale. These girls are knowledgeable, caring and a pleasure to work with.

I am 70 years old and have been participating in group Aqua Aerobics twice a week, when available, since Belinda started some 5 years ago now. Pay as you go. No joining fee. I owe a power of thanks to her for keeping me nimble and slowly building me up to where I ran a half marathon last year. She has an intensive knowledge of the body as each exercise is explained and demonstrated so you can go at your own pace, as gentle or as hard as you like. No walking up and down the side of the pool, Belinda is in the water leading you and encouraging you to help yourself. Thank you Belinda and now equally, your assistant instructor Laura. Fun while getting fit.
