Mind and Body

Want to feel calmer? Our mind and body classes are a great way to start or finish your day.

They will relax you, clear your mind, stretch the body, and increase flexibility and tone.

They are also a great complementary extra after a high intensity workout to stretch the muscles and wind down.

NB Class participants must be 12 years or over with the exception of Body Pump which is 16 years or over. For indoor cycling participants should be 12 years or over and at least 4ft 11in/150cm.

Check the fitness timetable for your local centre.

Controlled breathing, concentration and a carefully structured series of stretches, moves and poses to music create a holistic workout that brings the body into a state of harmony and balance.

Yoga takes your body through a series of postures in standing, seated and lying to improve body awareness, flexibility, strength, muscle tone while focusing on breathing and mindful movement. Generally followed by 10-15 minutes of meditation or relaxation.
