MT OUSLEY PHYSIE
At Mt Ousley Physie Club we are extremely fortunate to have some of the
​best teachers in the "Physie World"

Elizabeth Scott - Preschoolers to 8yrs

Elizabeth started physie with Mt Ousley at the age of 5 and has been a member for 45+ years!
A genuine love of physie and dedication to the club is what has kept her going back each year, she is very passionate about how great physie is for the girls and how much it helps them perform at any other activities they may be involved in.
 
Elizabeth has been teaching for over 30 years now , during which time Mt Ousley has become one of the most recognized clubs in the physie circles. There has been many national winners, national placegetters and championship winning teams under her guidance and direction. Over the past thirty years Elizabeth has taught every part of the club at various times and is proud to see her pupils now becoming great teachers and role models for the younger members of the club.

The best thing for Elizabeth though, is watching the younger ones progress with their physie each year, grow into young woman that have learnt loyalty to their club and teachers and make lifelong friends along the way.
