The Fitness Suite houses a full range of Nautalius cardiovascular equipment and Technogym equipment for strength training. All our fitness equipment is user friendly and of unrivalled quality. Why not drop in and let us show you round.

You will always be given a warm welcome by our staff members.

After your induction with us we will track your progress and regularly update your programme as required. We work closely with you to help you achieve your fitness goals.

Please feel free to contact an instructor for more details or any special requirements you may have.

Before you can use the gym you will need to go through an induction process, one of our fitness team will go through your medical and exercise history, look at your goals and finally show you how to exercise safely and effectively. This process is normally split over a couple or more visits to allow you to take everything in, however if you are a regular and confident gym user we can normally speed the process up. The cost of the induction for non members is £22, this will entitle you to up to three visits with an instructor. For members the cost of the induction is included in your first months membership.

Activity Referral Scheme

The safe, supervised, and enjoyable introduction to physical activity for people who are not regular exercisers, or who have health problems.

How the Course works.

If you would like to be more active and you have one of the following medical conditions;Anxiety, Angina, Arthritis, Asthma, Depression, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, Muscular Skeletal Injury, Obesity (over weight) or any similar condition.Ask your health professional if being active will help your condition. If the answer is yes they will fill in and sign a referral form for you. You will then be contacted by the Sports Centre to make an appointment at a mutually convenient time.

Your first visit.

We use your first visit to discuss your goals along with your medical and physical activity history. We find out about your likes and dislikes, and answer any questions you may have regarding the scheme. This information helps us to plan a suitable and enjoyable programme for you.

We will monitor your progress throughout the course to ensure that your activity continues to be enjoyable and varied, and that your objectives continue to develop.

We will also hold very informal discussions or question and answer sessions on various lifestyle issues such as; relaxation, healthy eating, alcohol, smoking and coping with stress. If you would like extra help on any of these issues please ask your instructor.

Your referral will be for a three month period, during this time you will be able to access the fitness suite, exercise classes and swimming pool as many times as you like. (Conditions apply)

Each session is fully supervised by an instructor (except swimming). You may feel a little unsure to start with, but relax and try to enjoy your sessions. You will soon get the hang of things and feel more confident.
