What Classes are available

Party Fit Fun filled dance class using all the party songs. Shimmy, shake and smile your way through these easy to follow routines whilst having a blast!
 Combat Zone & Tone

The ultimate body conditioning programme to create the stronger you!

This unique body conditioning programme combines combat style moves with toning and sculpting elements. This class specifically aims to tone the whole body whilst increasing flexibility.

 Circuits  
Dance Combat  
HIIT and Stretch  
Run Talk Run

Run Talk Run is a global mental health running group. Run and talk, free from judgement or competition, with our community running groups.

OUR MISSION: increase accessibility to mental health support through running & walking peer support groups
We are FREE to attend, for ALL abilities. We run as slow as the slowest runner.

Strength and Balance  
Zumba We take the “work” out of workout, by mixing low-intensity and high-intensity moves for an interval-style, calorie-burning dance fitness party. Once the Latin and World rhythms take over, you’ll see why Zumba® Fitness classes are often called exercise in disguise. Super effective? Check. Super fun? Check and check.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if it rains?
Hopefully the weather will be on our side and all the classes will be able to go ahead.

The safety of everyone involved is our top priority, as such bad weather around the event will be a problem.  If the area is too damp it may be too dangerous to proceed with the event.

If a class needs to be cancelled we will let everyone know as soon as possible.  This will be via Facebook updates and to contact emails provided on the booking form.

Where we can we will look at re-arranging classes, although this possible.

 

What happens if too many people book on to a class?
Most of the parks are have plenty of space so we are not expecting there to be issue with availability.  We are closely monitoring the number booked onto classes and will close the booking for parks if safe limits are reached.

 

I cannot access the online booking tool, can I still book on?
Yes! There will be paper version of the booking forms available on the day.  If you cannot use the booking tool, please message us on Facebook or via Email to let us know which classes you are interested in.  We can then reserve your space.  On the day, please arrive a few minutes earlier to complete the form.
