Speers Point Physie started as Speers Point RSL Youth Club which was founded more than 50 years ago.
For more than 46 years, Margaret Gillespie (Mrs G) coached, mentored and dedicated her life to the women and girls (past and present) that were part of this fantastic club.
Now left in the hands of life members that Margaret personally mentored for decades, the club will live on and will continue to achieve as a result of her dedication.
Our teachers are certified, experienced and qualified in all ages and classes.
CLUB SECRETARY & TEACHER TO
MINI SPEERSYS
I started Physie as a beginner lady in my early 30s. I only did Physie for a few years and always loved it. With 3 young kids, I just didn’t have time but loved watching my little girl who started when she was 4. I have been involved with Speers Point in some form or another for over 30 years and the friendships I have made will stay with me forever.

I continued into my teenage years where I then began to demonstrate for the little ones. This is where my passion for teaching began. I have been with Speers Point Physie my whole life and treasure the lifelong friendships I have made here. I share the love of Physie with my Mum, my two daughters, my Sisters, my Cousins, my Nieces, and of course, my many friends from all over.

I'm Allana. I've been doing Physie since I was 3 years old. My passion for teaching started when I began helping with the Juniors. I love Physie as it has taught me so much throughout my life. Resilience, hard work, and dedication. I'm so grateful for the lifelong friends I've made through Physie and I truly believe that Physie is more than just a sport!

Physie means the world to me and I can’t wait to share my passion

5-8 YEARS - BEGINNER LADIES
Everyone knows me as Rinny. I joined Speers Point Physie in 1979, as a swayed back, pigeon-toed 10-year-old. Mrs. G was my teacher and my parents thought it would improve my posture. It did just that! I only did Physie for two years as a child.

I have always loved music and dancing. I started at Speers Point Physie at the age of 5. Physie is my happy place as I have made so many friends, and everyone is so kind and supportive of each other. I work hard in class and practice at home as physie helps my body be strong and fit and improves my balance and flexibility. I always try to do my best, and if I am disappointed with the results, it just makes me more determined the next time. I love sharing special physie moments with my family as my cousins, aunty and mum also do physie. One of the highlights of my week is being a class helper. Watching the preschoolers learn the steps, and grow up to perform with smiles on their faces is just the best feeling!
TREASURER
I've been a Physie Husband for 13 years and most recently a Physie Dad.
I have degrees in Math, Science and a postgraduate degree in Business Finance. When the opportunity for Treasurer became available, I didn't hesitate to volunteer as I thought it was a great way to get involved and help out.
I'm excited about this next chapter and also to be part of such a great community.
