Outdoor Classes

Arena

Arena is an intense, 30 minute class run by our Gym team. It will push you to the limit and provide you with fast and long-lasting results.

A mixture of strength, cardio and core moves will help you achieve your fitness goals while giving you a fun workout.

This is a 30-minute class and is a medium intensity session.

Body pump

In this Les Mills group exercise class you will use barbell weights to squat, lift and pump your way to fitness. The instructor will help you select the right weights for you, and if you want a challenge, you can increase the weight you lift.  

With a great soundtrack, you’ll want to keep coming back for more.

This session is run as either a 45-minute or 60-minute session. This class is a medium intensity workout.

Can't make the class? We also run this session virtually!

Core

Our Core group exercise class is 30 minutes of exercises that will strengthen the muscles around your abs, back and bum.   

Not only will you tighten that six pack, but you will also help to ease back pain, and improve posture.  

We will provide all equipment used in the class for you, but if you would like to bring your own mat feel free.

This is a 30-minute class and is a medium intensity session.

HIIT and core

HIIT and core classes offer a full body workout like no other. You will do a quick warm-up which will get you ready for the high intensity interval training that follows. You will work hard for a short burst, then recover, before going again.  

This class combines resistance training with plyometric (jump) training, which will improve your power and strength.

Our instructors will work with you, will push you and motivate you to achieve your best results.  

This is a 45 minute class and is a high intensity session.
