Are you looking to start moving your body but don’t know where to begin? Or keen to venture into small group classes but can’t work out what’s right for you?

No matter what stage of your fitness journey, or life journey, you're at, we've got something for everyone. To put it simply, exercise should be something you enjoy and that slots into your life.

STRENGTH BUILDING

Classes to lift your mood, to build strength and stability. 

UpLift - Lift weights and feel good.

Welcome to UpLift where you'll be moving, sweating and lifting things, while also boosting your mood. 

In UpLift we build strength in a small group, personal training style class. The classes start with a mobilising warm up where we then move into a strength based, circuit style program where you can take the exercises into whatever pace or intensity suits you. 

Whether you’re a beginner, or this is an old hat, our qualified personal trainers will make sure that the workout is adapted to your needs. Given pretty much all our instructors are pre and postnatal specialists, exercises can be modified to work with your body if you're pre or postnatal (provided you’ve been cleared by your healthcare professional to exercise). Please note, this class is female only (unless it’s in the Hangar). 

UpLifted - our weekend twist on UpLift

A slightly more sweatier and snappier version of UpLift to keep those weekend vibes pumping! 

A Boost/UpLift hybrid, during the week we work for reps and sets, whereas on the weekend, you can expect to lift weights, move and sweat in mini circuits for 45 seconds with 15 seconds rest.

M.F.T - Get your farmer on! 

Modified Farmer Training, or M.F.T,  is an innovative outdoor fitness class (for ladies and gents) that combines the intensity and fun of group exercise with a uniquely rural twist.

M.F.T utilises a wide range of modified farming equipment such as yokes, ropes and other bespoke bits of kit to keep the workouts authentic, fun, and in tribute to our farming heritage.

You’ll engage in an energising warm up and then move through 5 stations, each consisting of 2-3 exercises where you’ll workout for 6 minutes, and rest for 1 minute before moving on to the next station.

Like all our classes, M.F.T is suitable for anyone and everyone. All the exercises can be progressed or regressed as necessary, all the coaches will adapt an exercise if need be to meet you where you are at. If you’re postnatal this class is suitable from 6 months postpartum, if you’re pregnant and have been training regularly throughout your pregnancy you’re welcome to join. 

Traction - Sweat and gain strength! 

Enjoy 45-50 minutes of a high energy outdoor bootcamp style class (for both ladies and gents). Move through different workout stations and enjoy the view from our beautiful Hangar! 

Expect to sweat and get stronger, all whilst listening to an upbeat playlist and passionate instructor! 

Boost - Get your heart rate up! 

A conditioning based class, designed to boost your mood with 45 minutes of high-rep weights, bodyweight movements and cardio.  

Our Boost classes are female only. As always, our Instructors are able to adapt for prenatal and postnatal, however due to the level of intensity, we don't recommend trying this one if you're less than 16 weeks postnatal to ensure you’ve given your body time to rehab.

PILATES

Classes to find a stretch, build strength, connect with your muscles and release some tension.

These classes are suitable for both beginners and the more experienced Yogi.

Yin Yoga - Find a deep release

A restorative Yoga class built entirely around floor based postures that are held for extended periods of time (3-5 minutes) whilst focusing on calming breathwork. 

These long holds promote gentle stress on the joints to deeply stretch and release the layers of fascia and connective tissue within the body to help improve mobility. 

Expect stress and tension to melt away as you create space in the body and mind to rebalance your energy for a new week ahead.

Slow Flow - Stretch and release tension

A slower paced Yoga class that is built on the foundations of Vinyasa, combining steady transitions between postures to be gentle on the body and mind. 

Expect to stretch and ease tension whilst incorporating strength, balance, breathwork and meditation. An ideal class if you’re relatively new to Yoga.
