Chair Pilates Mondays 1.15pm-2pm
Thanks to a successful bid for National Lottery Community Funding, we are proud to announce a new and exciting initiative, supporting older people and the elderly within Thongsbridge and our neighbouring communities of Holmfirth, New Mill and Wooldale.
Whatever the barriers may have been to date for these individuals participating in an active pastime – perhaps increased demands and challenges as a direct result of the cost-of-living crisis, existing mobility issues, disabilities, mental health needs, or even long-term illnesses – our welcoming team has developed the most accessible classes to encourage all to take part.
Our classes will help rebuild confidence, self-esteem, and improve both mental and physical health, combatting feelings of isolation and anxiety. The opportunity to build new relationships and friendships will ultimately provide a valuable support network as each is able to socially connect with others in the surrounding community.
Our sessions are greatly subsidised and are available to non-members, over the age of 60. They have been designed to rebuild strength, improve mobility and essentially, balance – ideal for those whose fear of falling is sometimes a barrier to getting out. All activity is low impact, and no previous experience of sport, fitness or movement classes is necessary, our instructors work to the pace of each individual.
Interested in gaining a little more independence and improving your quality of life in great company? Then contact us today for details of how to join in these welcoming sessions!
Classes cost just £3, which includes a coffee or tea in our Courtside Café – perfect for a social catch up afterwards!
