We’re continuing to offer good times online!

Our Zoom sessions really are the most effective way to train at home.

You could, of course, do a few YouTube videos. But with our live classes you'll get guidance, camaraderie, motivation, friendship, and community. Our team will help you to be accountable and motivated. We check in on everyone to make sure you’re executing the moves correctly and to ensure our instructions are clear. You won't quit early or take extra long water breaks if the HA team are watching!

Head over to our timetable to view all of our classes. We have:

- 13 classes a week

- 5 different instructors

- Loads of variation!

All for just £12 a week or £44 a month!

Happy New Year!

Hopefully you're all settling into your new post-Christmas routine OK?

Life continues to be full of unexpected challenges, but you really don't need me to remind you of that. From a health, fitness and wellbeing point of view, if you've been exercising and eating healthily for most of the time, then give yourself a pat on the back and keep it up!

If you've gone slightly off track and want to get back into it, then don't focus on the past. Look forward to the fact that you're making a positive change now, and build on that. Your positive focus and actions will build momentum and enthusiasm. And of course, if we can support you in any of this, we will.

Our Zoom timetable continues to be very popular, with 13 classes a week, 5 different instructors and lots of variation. All for just £12 a week or £44 a month. If you've not signed up yet, drop me a line and we can organise a free week of classes for you to trial.

Finally, a big thanks to all of our clients for the encouraging feedback and all of the little thank you messages that appear randomly in my inbox!

Stay safe, healthy and fit,

Heather x

Nearly there....

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!

Our live online timetable

Focusing on what we CAN do, rather than what we can't, here's our Zoom timetable for the rest of the week.

Kate is fired up and ready to train you in your living room, kitchen or garden at 9am tomorrow morning. Why not get your whole family involved!

Our Zoom sessions are just £12 a week. Or £44 for the rest of November. Every week you'll get unlimited access to:

• 8 HIIT/Bootcamp classes

• 3 Stretch & Restore classes

• 1 Cardio Pilates class

• 1 Cardio Core class

• 5 Amazing Personal Trainers.

You'll also be able to join our 28 Day Lock down Challenge (join us today and find out about my sleep confessions!). Our private HA Facebook group is also where we'll be saving a few workouts a week for you to do in your own time.

If you're new to our Zoom classes, you're very welcome to join us for a week for FREE. Just drop me a line to let me know.

If you'd like to sign-up, head over to our purchase page, or drop me a line for more info.

The HA team have got your back. We'll get through this together.

I'm doing this for me

With so much going on, there's all the more reason to ensure we look after our mental and physical health at the moment.

So here’s my idea. A 28 day lock down challenge. Everyday you take time out to do something to boost your fitness. It could be anything from a run, walk, HIIT workout, Pilates class or stretch session.

Over in our private Facebook group, I’ll be sharing fitness inspiration ideas and hopefully make you smile over the next 28 days.

Each day I’ll give you a little nudge to help motivate you to be active. It won’t be full blown workouts (you can join us on Zoom for that!), just little prompts and activities to keep you inspired.

Along the way, there may well be awesome days, overwhelming days and exhausted days. But the idea is, everyday you’ll hopefully go to bed thinking, today I did something for me today.

Fancy joining us? Message us and I'll send you a link to the private group. You just need to be signed up to our Zoom sessions (either weekly or for the whole month) to have access.

Drop me a line if you have any questions.

Training online - further update

We’re still awaiting a full update from our governing body, however I can confirm tomorrow’s class at 6.15am will be on Zoom.

The HA team will be working extra hard over the next 4 weeks to connect, inspire and motivate you all in the best way we possibly can!

• 5 highly qualified instructors

• 13 live online classes a week

• Everything from High Intensity HIIT, to Core, to Stretch and Restore.

• £12 per week all inclusive. Or £44 for the rest of November.

Sign up on our website here!

We'll try our best to keep you both physically and mentally fit throughout lock down.

Training outside - fitness update

It's now looking pretty certain that we will no longer be outside from Thursday (although not 100% confirmed).

Time to sign-up for our Zoom live online timetable! Benefit from 5 very different highly qualified instructors running sessions live into you kitchen/living room throughout lock down.

13 classes a week. Monday through to Saturday. Early mornings, late mornings, lunchtimes and evenings. Everything from High Intensity HIIT, to Core to Stretch and Restore.

The timetable will be updated on our website later today. It will look the same, but will just have 6.15am on Thursday and 9.00am on Saturday included.

We'll try our best to keep you both physically and mentally fit throughout lock down.

CARDIO CORE: Live online tonight!

CARDIO CORE is live online tonight with the highly talented Laura!

This class goes far beyond your basic crunch. You'll identify your core, engage it and extend up from it.

Promoting both strength and flexibility, these sessions will help you to develop and maintain a good posture and avoid lower back issues. Laura makes it all great fun too.

Join Laura on Zoom at 7.30pm tonight.

If you've not signed up to one of our Zoom packages this week, there's still time. If you're totally new to our Zoom timetable, you're very welcome to join us for a week's free trial. Just drop us a line and we can send you the details.

Happy training!

Our new Members' Hub

We've decided to put more resources into our Members’ Hub (our private online Facebook Group).

This was originally set up as a place to save some of our recorded Zoom classes during lock-down. We're now going to also include all of the things we often don't get time to go through during our classes. There will be a different focus each week.

This week will be all about "engaging your core", and how simply "pulling your navel back to your spine" isn't actually doing the job you need it to, and could even cause you some problems.

We'll teach you how to invite all of your core muscles to the party. This will help to improve overall core strength, reduce back problems and is especially relevant to new (and not so new) mums.

The Members’ Hub is accessible to everyone who has signed up to our Monthly Live On Zoom, Monthly Mini Combo and our Monthly Unlimited packages (see below). There's still time to sign-up if you haven't done so already!

To be added to the Members’ Hub, look up HA fitness Online on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/251327246162495).

In other news, Antonio is taking a well deserved break this week. So Kate and I will be covering his Live Online Zoom classes. All of the times will stay the same.

Drop me a line if you have any questions or queries?

Happy Training,

Happiness is....training with you both indoors and outdoors!

Cracking morning so far! Loved seeing so many of you on Zoom at 6.15am this morning.

Looking forward to working out with a few more of you in real life in South Park Gardens at 9.30am.

And then I’m slowing things down with a deep stretch on Zoom at 1pm.

Happy days!!

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

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:

Class news - Antonio

I have some good and bad news to share...

Antonio is flying back to his hometown next week. Sadly for us, this now won’t just be for a holiday. He’s decided to move back permanently so that he can spend more time with his friends and family in Croatia.

The really good news is that he is keen to continue his online Zoom sessions for HA fitness!

So it is farewell, but certainly not goodbye.

Antonio joined the HA fitness team in October 2016 and has run literally hundreds of sessions for us since then! He is well loved across all of our clients, never sick and 100% reliable. Even on a cold, dark winter’s morning when it’s pouring rain, Antonio will be there with a smile!

Thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication to the team Antonio!!

Tomorrow’s 6.15am class will be Antonio’s last park session. So if you can make it, it would be great to see you there. All of his Zoom sessions will run as normal this week, so don’t worry if you can’t make it.

More announcements to come as to how our timetable will be evolving.

Back in the park!

And we’re back!! Our first Fit In The Park class at 6.15am this morning in South Park Gardens.

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

And well done to our amazing clients for joining us, following the social distancing rules and working out really, really hard. It was so lovely to see you all in real life!

Antonio is back tomorrow at 6.15am, this time in Wimbledon Park. Drop us a line if you’d like to join him. This session will also be taking place on Zoom.

Wow what a fantastic start to our outdoor sessions!

Training in the Great Outdoors again

Yes that’s right! The news we’ve all been waiting for. With the latest easing of restrictions, we can now head back into the park providing we stick to the COVID-19 Secure guidelines.

We will be announcing our new Zoom and Park timetable shortly.

Please bear with us while we update our policies, waivers and booking system over the next few days. We need to do this to ensure we are compliant with current legislation and our insurance companies. We will be doing everything we can to keep everyone safe whilst ensuring you have a great workout too!

See you in the park soon!
