plus a free weights area. We have large TV screens where you
can tune in to your favourite TV or radio channel via a personal
headset.
Our Instructors
All our gym instructors are higher level members of the Register
of Exercise Professionals (REPS). This means that in addition to
government approved qualifications our instructors are undertaking
continuous professional development to keep their skills and
knowledge up to date. They operate within a strict ethical code of
practice. They also all hold first aid and emergency
