Junior fitness

We believe a physically active child is much more likely to become a physically active adult. 

We run the following supervised sessions for children aged 11-15 years to attend:

  • Monday - Friday 3.45pm - 4.40pm and 4.45pm - 5.40pm
  • Saturday - Sunday 10.00am - 10.55am, 1.00pm - 1.55pm, 5.00pm - 5.55pm 

All junior gym users must complete a group introduction before using the gym independently. These sessions last 30 minutes and can be booked with a member of our team when joining.

An induction will need to be completed at each centre to be used 

Once a junior member has completed their introduction and received programme advice they can attend outside the above supervised sessions with a parent/guardian or appropriate adult (18+) on a ratio of a maximum four juniors per adult.
