Our Classes

Active Sit
This fun low-level class combining seated and standing exercises is perfect if you want to build strength and improve balance or co-ordination or if you are just looking for a friendly class as a way of being active.
Active Sit is great for anyone who has poor balance, walks slowly or uses mobility aids to get around.

Seated Yoga
This low-level class uses a combination of seated and standing based movements that focus on stretches to increase flexibility, strength and balance to the whole body, with a focus on helping to relieve stress and help your body to relax.

Strength & Balance
This low-level circuit session is fun and designed to work the whole body. This is the ideal class if you can move around independently and are looking to build on your strength and balance.
This class uses a mixture of body weight and light weights and a great thing about this class is that each exercise can be adapted to meet your individual needs and allows you to work at your own pace in a friendly group environment.

Strength & Cardio
This lightly energetic circuit class is designed to work the whole body, so it’s ideal for those who are looking to improve their physical fitness.
Similar to Strength & Balance we use body weight and light weights during the class and each exercise can be adapted to meet your individual needs and allows you to work at your own pace in a friendly group environment.
