BODYBALLET
An effective body conditioning class inspired by ballet techniques with an infusion of yoga and Pilates. Great for posture, core, toning, strengthening and stretching. Great for all levels including beginners and those in rehabilitation.

YOGA
A Hatha Yoga Class with a blend of flowing movements, dynamic postures, breathing techniques and tension-releasing stretches. Great for stamina, toning, flexibility and letting go of what isn’t serving you.
GENTLE EXERCISE CLASS
Aimed at seniors – A kind movement class for those who need to listen to their bodies and take it steady for a while. This class is a blend of Barre, Pilates and Yoga and uses chairs for support and seated exercise and no matt work. It is ideal for those returning to exercise after a long period, new mums (babies welcome), the elderly or less mobile or injured/rehabilitating….
We focus on mobilising joints, strengthening postural muscles and releasing tension and pain.
Ballet
A non-syllabus and a mix of Barre (using chairs), centre practice, jumps and turns. It will have all the discipline of ballet but a very accessible and fun class.
