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:
- Tuesday: 4:00pm - 5:00pm and 5:00pm - 6:00pm
- Thursday: 4:00pm - 5:00pm and 5:00pm - 6:00pm
All sessions are free for the first 4 weeks
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.
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.
An introduction will need to be completed at each centre to be used.
