Exercise Classes

Our exercise classes come in all shapes and styles and there is bound to be something that appeals. Whatever your fitness level and whether you exercise regularly or are a complete beginner, our exercise classes offer a great way to get in shape.

Our friendly instructors make our classes a great motivating and fun experience too, while making sure you are working at the right level and pace and learning all the moves and techniques you need.

Classes can also compliment your gym programme by giving your body a different type of exercise and giving you the added buzz of working out with a group.

Fast moving classes like Aerobics, Step and Circuits are great for your overall fitness as well as being great calorie burners. At the other end of the spectrum, Yoga and Pilates will help tone muscles, increase flexibility and improve posture.

There are also classes specifically designed to help our senior exercisers with maintaining a healthy lifestyle by gently toning up muscles, strengthening joints and enhancing mobility.

We are introducing new classes all the time -  so make sure you get a copy of our latest programme which is available in our leaflet download section.

Starting out

If you are new to exercise, have any medical conditions, injuries or are pregnant, please tell your instructor before you start your class. If in any doubt, consult your doctor before starting a new activity.

  • Wear comfortable clothing and soft flat training-type footwear.
  • Arrive on time for your class as you may be unable to join if you are late and miss the warm up.
  • Bring a drink with you to keep hydrated during and after your class - cafe or vending facilities are available at each centre and reusable water bottles can usually be purchased from reception.
  • Do not eat immediately before a class - a light snack an hour before will help boost your energy levels and leave you feeling comfortable.
  • Use a locker for your personal belongings as bags left on the floor are a hazard and you may be asked to remove them.
  • Book your class and pay in advance* as places are limited. You must give at least 24 hours notice to cancel in order to be eligible for a refund.

Classes may be subject to change of time, instructor or cancellation in exceptional circumstances - we will endeavour to keep you informed.

*classes are free to Platinum Members but must be booked in advance to guarantee your place. Gold Plus, Gold or Aqua Members and Priority Booking Card holders can book and pay up to eight days in advance.
