The space


The group sessions

Cycle Fit For extra enjoyment, this session is based on the work-to-rest ratios of some of your favourite cycling events, such as the Tour de France. But you don’t have to be a world-class cyclist – this is suitable for all abilities and ages. Come and ride the route in our world-class spin studio, at your own pace. You’ll improve your cardio strength, build muscle definition and burn calories.

Stronger Fitter Faster HIIT An anaerobic and aerobic conditioning session using similar equipment and exercises as Strength for Life sessions, but in a higher intensity environment. If you’re looking to improve your overall health and fitness, and have a great time while doing it, this session is for you.

Strength for Life This weight-training session is expertly designed for people of all levels of fitness and strength. You will use strength and conditioning techniques to ensure that you are strong for whatever your life demands, whether it be running after young children, surviving long days in the office or excelling in your weekend sport.
