National Fitness Day on the 9th September is the biggest celebration of physical activity across the UK and Life Leisure is joining in by offering local adults and children, members and non-members, the opportunity to get moving and take part in some FREE activities. Everyone is welcome.
National Fitness Day is led by UK Active,
the UK’s leading not-for-profit health body for the physical activity sector. The aim of the day is to encourage and inspire people to take part in exercise, on what they hope will to be the most active day of the year.
Commenting on the upcoming event, Laura Mylotte, Marketing Manager at Life Leisure said
“We are delighted to be supporting National Fitness Day which is all about getting people to try exercising in a fun and motivational way. This is a great opportunity for people to try something new and we want to encourage as many people as possible to take part. Our doors are open to all ages and abilities so come along and join in the fun.”
Life Leisure’s fantastic family friendly event includes Retro Aerobics at Life leisure Avondale where you can wear your best lycra, sweatbands and leg warmers, take a trip down memory lane and boogie to some great tunes!
There’s a special KETTfusion class which combines kettlebells & martial arts providing a great workout, but this time with the added fun of a Michael Jackson tribute theme, so moonwalking skills might well be on show.
Across all the Life Leisure centres there will be a Fitness Day Challenge which is a drop in session available throughout the day. With guidance from the fitness teams you can take on a number of exercises, 10 of each from press ups to jumping split squats. See if you can make it on the leader board.
For the kids, there is a Fitness Hour for children aged 5-10 years at Life Leisure Avondale where they join in the fun and run off some steam in an hour long fitness and games session.
