Wellness Warriors
Does the thought of exercising fill you with feelings of “uggghhhhhh” Have you been looking to try different things but don’t want to make the commitment to a full term until you know you like it?

To get women out and about, meeting new people and having a laugh. Think of us as the delicious roast dinner of exercise, rather than a plain old lettuce salad. Both are pretty good for you, but one is way more enjoyable than the other. Each class goes for 60 minutes and participants are welcome to stay behind for a cuppa and chat.
