Junior Gym

What is Junior Gym?

Junior Gym is a dedicated fitness session designed for children aged 11 to 17, providing an introduction to working out in the gym and helping them start their journey towards a healthy, active lifestyle. All sessions are fully supervised by a member of our expert Fitness team to ensure safe and effective exercise techniques.

Sessions are included in our monthly membership or can be booked on a pay-as-you-go basis. Before their first session, all juniors are required to attend a Junior Gym Induction to ensure they’re familiar with the equipment and safety guidelines.

Junior Gym Hours:

  • Monday - Friday: 3:30pm - 5:30pm
  • Saturday & Sunday: 9:00am - 5:00pm

We're excited to support your child in developing healthy habits and building confidence in the gym!

Gym induction

All juniors are required to book and attend a junior gym induction before attending the first junior gym sessions. Junior inductions are conducted by our level 2 qualified Fitness Instructors in small groups of no more than five people and are 30 minutes long. During the inductions, our Instructors will go over all health & safety information about the gym, explain the gym etiquette, demonstrate the equipment that juniors are allowed to use during the sessions, and show how to use it safely. 

Junior Gym inductions take place 11am - 4pm every weekend

Adult & Child Gym Sessions

Keep your family active by working out together in our adult and junior gym sessions. Juniors must be supervised at all times by the adult accompanying them. Juniors are required to book into this session and must have completed an induction. Juniors aged 11-17 are able to attend these sessions
