One of the reasons why Melbourne is such a
liveable city has to be the variety of healthy lifestyle choices available. In addition to the
farmers markets and quality produce, there are
fitness classes in the city,
Tai Chi sessions in
Docklands,
meditation in
Federation Square and
Zumba at Boyd Community Hub.

If none of the above interests you, there's always weekly walks in the city and different Melbourne suburbs conducted by The Happiness Hunter as a way to stay
active and relieve stress. Best of all, the walks are FREE to join. The walks even take place as far out as
Mornington Peninsula and Mount Dandenong.
