Group Fitness Classes
My group fitness classes have an energetic and motivational atmosphere, you'll finish the class knowing you've worked hard and with a smile on your face! Take a look below at the different classes I offer and the current timetable. Book online here.
Strength Circuits & Targeted Strength
This class is designed to help maintain and increase muscle mass and bone density.
As we age our muscle mass and bone density starts to decline, this starts as early as in our 30s and, for women, can increase significantly during the perimenopause before restabilising after menopause.
To combat this it is important to include weight bearing exercise and resistance training in your fitness regime.
In this class you can expect to use equipment such as dumbbells, kettlebells and suspension trainers in a full body strength workout.
Mobility & Balance
This class is designed to improve your mobility and balance.
These are aspects of fitness that are so important in all the sports we do as well as in daily life.
Expect a varied session that will get you moving in different planes and directions, challenge your balance and improve your range of movement in your joints.
You'll do both bodyweight and weighted exercises using different modalities to challenge your balance such as foam mats and balance discs.
HIIT & Core
A classic high intensity interval class - high energy, leaving with you with a buzz that lasts all day!
In this class you'll experience a full body workout with aspects of both cardio and strength training. The class will finish with a core workout and full body stretch to cool down.
High intensity interval training (HIIT) manipulates the body's metabolic system by elevating and lowering your heart rate over and over again. By doing this your metabolic rate will remain high (burning more calories) for several hours after you finish!
Forest Fitness
These classes are a combination of cardio and strength work.
They combine running (or jogging/fast walking) through the forest stopping regularly to complete different exercise stations using bodyweight and the apparatus of the Vita Parcours.
By the end of the session you will have had a full body workout along with a good dose of nature!
