In Episode 1 of our Sport is for Every BODY mini-series, Olympic rhythmic gymnast Alexandra Kiroi-Bogatyreva and Sport Integrity Australia’s Mat Sinclair share how parents can support their child’s body confidence in sport. Mat explains how SIA partnered with The Embrace Collective to develop practical resources to help families respond to body shaming, advocate for their children, and foster inclusive environments. Listeners will learn why language matters, how to reframe conversations around what bodies can do, and what steps to take if body shaming occurs.
