Class members come in all ages, shapes and sizes, and Lara aims to help you to gain a more healthy, confident attitude towards your body and how you use it. In return, your body will continue to work to the best of its abilities, providing you look after it!

You do not have to be fit (or a certain shape or size) to attend classes - learn to love the body you have, and let go of your inhibitions & fears. Once you join, you will find that your fitness & flexibility starts to improve week by week, and these classes are a great way to help you to keep fit and healthy. 

All classes are suitable for beginners. 

On your own? Most of our members come along on their own, so please don't worry - you will be made to feel very welcome, and any first-time nerves will soon disappear - we promise! 

Please contact Lara  if you wish to discuss starting an exercise plan, and are unsure due to your limitations.

We welcome class members who are partially-sighted, hard-of-hearing, have a prosthetic limb, or use a mobility aid. Please just let Lara know in advance so that we can position you in the best place for your needs during class.
