If the idea of spending another night in staring at your books is leaving you cold, then this article is for you.
When you need to get away from studying you’ll need something to keep your brain – and body – active. We’ve pulled together a list of things to do in Melbourne designed to get you thinking and moving.
Race Your Mates On Go Karts
Get the gang together and race laps on the Go Kart track. It’s a great way to activate your brain (think, how to overtake your mate on the corners) and body (seriously, after a few laps you’ll feel it in your arms and core).
Go Karting is great no matter what day of the week, but we offer even better deals on Thursday nights, when you can race laps for $1 a lap (sold in blocks of 10). We’re open til 9pm on Thursdays so you can come in for some fun and head on out for drinks after.

There are salsa classes all over Melbourne, so you’re bound to find one near you. If you live or work in the city, we recommend checking out The Salsa Foundation.
