Junior Gym Activities

Junior 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 or 3 qualified Fitness Instructors in small groups of no more than five people and are upto 45 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. 

Adult & Junior

Adult and junior gym sessions offer a unique opportunity for adult members to enjoy their fitness routines alongside their children, who fall within the age range of 11 to 17 years. This initiative not only promotes family bonding but also encourages a healthy and active lifestyle for both adults and young people.

For those aged 11 to 15 years they must have a responsible adult present with them at all times during the session, as this active supervision helps in preventing accidents and promotes good workout habits.

In conclusion, adult and junior gym sessions serve as a fantastic way for families to bond, stay fit, and promote a healthy lifestyle.
