New additions to the Group Exercise 2026 timetable! 🏋️‍♀️🧘🏻‍♂️

We are excited to announce that we will be adding four new classes to this year’s group exercise timetable! Starting next Monday 2 February, our new class formats are: 

LES MILLS Strength Development �A progressive 12-week strength training program designed to build muscle, improve lifting technique, and increase confidence.

Tummy, Hips & Thighs �A moderate-intensity resistance-based class focused on toning and strengthening the lower body and core. 

BODYPUMP Heavy �A tempo-based strength training class that uses heavier weights, slower movements, and longer recovery periods to build lean muscle and improve overall strength. 

Les Mills Shapes (Sculpt Pilates) �An energising workout blending Pilates, barre, and power yoga, set to modern music. 

Keep an eye out on the timetable to book!
