FAQs

  • Yes! The class timetable for the month ahead can be viewed HERE. I also share it each week on Instagram stories to remind you what we have coming up.

    Please note that the monthly timetable does vary. 

    As I run these sessions myself (just me!) I try and fit the timetable around the monthly plans and commitments I have on with my family. I also adapt the classes to the time of year and the daylight hours we have available.

  • All abilities are very welcome, and sessions are designed with brand new attendees in mind as well as those who come back each week. Classes are centred around choice and options will always be given to make the exercises lower impact, or more challenging depending on how you are feeling that day. 

  • If you feel that certain exercises might be unsuitable for you, please get in touch before booking and I can advise accordingly.

    Whilst I have a specialist qualification in pre and post natal fitness, the group classes are not designed specifically for these groups. 1:1 sessions will be better tailored to safely exercising whilst pregnant and in the first few months after birth.

  • Group sessions are simply pay as you go. You can book one class or the entire month in one go! 

  • Your trainers, a bottle of water, layered clothing and a positive mindset!

    All mats and training equipment are provided.

  • Yes! private parking is available on site.

  • The beauty of training outside is that we move with the seasons and the elements, soaking up the many benefits of being in nature. But there is the odd day where this just isnโ€™t safe or enjoyable and f thatโ€™s the case, we relocate to a beautiful barn just down the road. I contact you directly with the new location when applicable.
