Strong & Steady Class

The Strong & Steady Class is designed to improve your strength and balance so you feel more confident in your mobility and when carrying out daily activities.

The class is led by a qualified healthcare professional such as a Physiotherapist, Osteopath or Sports Therapist who will guide you through a warm up and a variety of aerobic, strength, balance and functional exercises in a circuit format. All exercises have various ability levels and can be done seated or standing so anyone can take part. Classes take place in our fully equipped gym where you will be supervised to use everything safely.

The class will also cover how to get up from the floor safely should you have a fall.

The Strong & Steady Class is suitable for those who have:

• reduced mobility following surgery or a period of illness
