Sport and Fitness

Improve your health, stay trim, lift your self-esteem, get fit, lose weight, improve skills and ability, feel less stressed are just a few of the reasons to join one of our exercise classes.
There is a wide range to choose from including:

Yoga

Yoga includes exercise, breathing techniques and relaxation to stretch, tone and flex the body, and calm the mind.

Pilates

Pilates is mainly mat-based and helps to improve body posture, natural poise, flexibility and ease of movement and can relieve stress and promote a feeling of well-being.

Tai Chi

Tai Chi invigorates the mind and body with soft continuous movement that promotes relaxation, health and wellbeing whatever your age or fitness level.

Aerobics

Aerobics is an energetic form of exercise that helps towards increasing fitness, range of movement, flexibility and helps burn extra calories to aid weight loss and body tone.

Fitball

Fitball can improve your strength and flexibility and make you feel good all over. It is an excellent all round toning and strengthening class for people of all fitness levels.

Circuit Training

Circuit training improves strength, mobility and stamina. It involves a group of six to ten exercises that are completed one after another, and can be adapted for people of all ages and levels of fitness.

Boxercise

Boxercise incorporates a number of boxing moves and techniques, but does not involve physical contact. It is a great way of toning your body and letting off steam at the same time.

Salsacise

Salsacise classes combine salsa dance and exercise to improve fitness levels and help you to feel great. As well as toning the whole body, Salsacise is also a fantastic cardiovascular exercise.

Somatics

Somatics offers, through a simple, practical programme for mind and body, the prospect for almost everyone of being able to maintain a supple, healthy body indefinitely with only a five minute routine once a day.

Keep Fit

Keep Fit classes can improve fitness and keep you in shape. You should benefit from increased stamina and suppleness and improved co-ordination. Exercises are generally low impact and suit all age groups and levels of fitness.
And remember, if you combine sensible eating with our classes you could lose weight permanently!
