Lancaster City Council is inviting local people to enjoy a series of free and discount fitness events at Salt Ayre Sports Centre to mark National Fitness Day.
The events take place on Friday September 28 and aim to encourage people to take pride in their personal fitness and wellbeing.
Salt Ayre will be joining in with thousands of fitness centres across the country to take part in an ‘empower half hour’ at 12pm with a free Zumba class.
From 9.30am to 6pm, anyone interested in trying out a gym for the first time can help themselves to a free 30 minute taster session at the centre’s Reflexions Fitness Suite. The fitness suite is one of the largest in the area and offers over 20 cardiovascular machines, 14 resistance stations and a free weights area. The 30 minute taster sessions have been specially designed to de-mystify the gym environment and introduce newcomers to the modern gym environment.
The evening will see the launch of a brand new Zumba toning class starting at 7pm.
Zumba toning combines targeted body-sculpting exercises and high-energy cardio work with popular Latin-infused Zumba moves. To celebrate National Fitness Day, this new class will cost only £2 and will be free to existing Reflexions members.
Ben France, Health and Fitness Manager at Salt Ayre Sports Centre is thrilled to be part of National Fitness Day: “It’s great that Salt Ayre is joining the nation in celebrating National Fitness Day. Our fitness classes have always been popular so our free empower session and new Zumba toning class is a great opportunity to introduce more people to this fun way of keeping fit.
“I’d also encourage anyone who’d like to know more about gyms to make the most of our free 30 minute taster sessions throughout the day. Our friendly staff are keen to show newcomers the types of equipment on offer and advise them on what equipment is best for them.
“I hope Salt Ayre Sports Centre can help National Fitness Day in making the UK a healthier nation.”
There’s no need to book to take part in the ‘empower half hour’ and Zumba toning class but to reserve your free 30 minute gym taster session, call Reflexions Fitness Suite on 01524 382985.
