Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) is calling for applications from residents who are interested in receiving training to become qualified fitness or yoga instructors in areas outside Toowoomba and Highfields.
TRC Parks and Recreation Services portfolio leader Cr Tim McMahon said Council was offering the training with the support of funding from the Queensland Government's ActiveKIT program.
The Department of Tourism, Innovation and Sport is working in collaboration with Health and Wellbeing Queensland on this initiative, with co-investment across agencies to support more Queenslanders to lead healthy and active lifestyles.
Cr McMahon said limited places were available for community members to receive full funding to become a fitness or yoga instructor with Council's Change Project.
"Council is keen to offer the training for residents who are interested in running fitness or yoga classes across our regional towns as part of our Change Project to widen access to healthy lifestyle and fitness activities," Cr McMahon said.
