Not used a gym before?

Before using the gym you can complete an optional induction, so our fitness instructors can check you are well enough to train. This also gives you the opportunity to get advice about other activities the centre may offer, which could help you to achieve your fitness goals.

Refocus sessions are available to you at any time, where your fitness instructors will change your programme to suit your development. Did you know that keeping your workout more varied and challenging will actually keep you much fitter?

We have a great range of membership options or you can pay as you play too.
