Calisthenics is a uniquely Australian sport, sort of a combination of ballet and rhythmic gymnastics with a bit of acrobatics and marching drill thrown in. It’s competition season for some of the state organisations and they are posting their winners etc on Instagram so I did a bit of name-gathering.

---

Calisthenics tends to be disproportionately popular with the Italian, south-eastern European, and south-east Asian immigrant communities which skews the name style a bit, but not as much as one might think!
