Outdoor classes

Nearly there....

SPG grounds.jpg

Thank you so much for all of your enthusiastic messages about when we'll be back out in the park again!

Our first session in South Park Gardens will be at 6.15am this Thursday, unless you hear otherwise from us. There are still a number of legislation issues that we're waiting for clarification on from our governing body (CIMPSA).

In the meantime, don't forget to sign-up and join our Zoom sessions (£12 for a week or £44 for the whole of December). You can purchase online here.

Kate will be getting everyone working up a sweat tomorrow at 9.00am, so make sure you join her in your living room/kitchen or garden. If you aren't receiving the Zoom links, drop me a line.

I'd like to thank the whole of the HA fitness community for your continued support during this pretty challenging year!

HA fitness training - indoors or outside

HA fitness outdoor banner.jpg

The HA fitness banner continues to fly!

With the PM now urging everyone to work from home, we realise some people's schedules are about to change, yet again.

The good news is, HA fitness isn't changing (well for the time being anyway).

If you're working from home, our live online class timetable is designed to fit around your busy working day.

You can join us on Zoom for an energetic HIIT style class at 6.15am, 7am or 9am. Then take a break from your desk for a lunchtime Stretch and Restore or Cardio Pilates session. One evening a week we also have a Cardio Core class, which is not only a fab workout, but a great stress buster too!

If you'd prefer to be outside, we're got 4 Fit In The Park classes a week in South Park Gardens. We’re delighted to say that these sessions will continue to run as they are socially distanced and follow the COVID-19 secure guidelines. They’re also lots of fun too.

Drop us a line if you’d like to book a free trial or have any questions etc.

Back to school and changes in routine - don't forget to give yourself 'me' time

Remember to exercise.jpg

Last week was a happy week for many, as the kids finally shuffled their way back into school.

We know that a few of you also returned to that slightly strange place called "The Office" again.

Although all of these changes are seen as progress, it's also important to hold onto some of those positive routines which we all developed over the last 6 months. Like ensuring that you take time out for yourself to both exercise and rest.

We hope that our online and park timetable suits a changing world, where schedules are evolving. Here's what we've got planned for this week:

Well done to Antonio who was running this session, both in the park and on Zoom for our clients at home.

Now there's an idea...

Avoid frantic Amazon searches, tedious queues & sardine-style shopping. Relax & breathe. We've got Christmas sorted with 3 very different gift ideas!

1) The Gift Of Fitness

HA gift voucher.jpg

Our very flexible HA fitness vouchers can be purchased for any value and used as full or part payment for personal training, classes, Boot Camps or a mixture of all of our HA fitness services.

So whether you need a gift for a regular exerciser, or someone who'll appreciate being nudged in the right direction, we can help. And there's free delivery on all orders. Get in touch & let us know who you'd like to treat.

2) Personal Styling And Shopping Vouchers

Charlotte loves gift voucher.jpg

Our most glamorous personal training client and Wimbledon's favourite stylist, Charlotte Broadbent, has a limited number of personal styling and shopping vouchers available this Christmas.

Charlotte says... "Discovering your true colours and most flattering shapes is an experience you'll never forget, for both women and men. Buy a present this year that actually makes a difference.

We wear 20% of our wardrobe, 80% of the time so it's time to detox that wardrobe, piece together new outfits, sell on your old clothes and find the confidence to shop for your perfect colours and shapes."

Get in touch with Charlotte at Charlotte Loves, to find out more about her gift packages.

3) Family Photography Gift Certificates

Julia Boggio.jpg

Long-term friend and client of HA fitness is the multi-award winning photographer, Julia Boggio. She's one of London’s top family portraiture photographers and is based right here in Wimbledon.

Julia says... "2018 will be a year to remember, which is why a gift certificate for family photography would make the perfect present this Christmas."

Get in touch with Julia at Boggio Studios, to find out more about her gift packages.

Happy Shopping!
