12th July 2024 Newsletter

Hi all,

As always, thanks so much for coming to class/subscribing this week!

Broadway, Burlesque and Bellinis Final Total

Thanks so much to everyone who supported this year's Cancer Research event! Our final total now stands at £1711.37! Thanks so much to everyone who donated, came to the event and gave their time and energy to making this event such a massive success! This is the 4th highest amount we have raised from one of these events, with the first being a Zumbathon back in 2015 and the other 2 being the 2 lockdown events when we had a pretty 'captive' audience (literally!). I shall now stop begging and scrounging off you - until next year!

Gentle Exercise Class

Most of you probably don't know about this class, but I run a Gentle Exercise Class on Thursday mornings 10-11 (term-time only) at Thornbury Methodist Church in Thornbury. IT's run by the U3A so you do have to be a member to join it, but my understanding is that it's pretty easy to join. This class is more gentle than Recycled Teenagers and includes some slower aerobics, some Barre fitness, some balance work and some seated exercises too. I know they have a few vacancies for the Autumn term (starts beginning of Sept) so if you think this is something you, or someone you know, might be interested in then click the link to see how to join. I don't take the bookings for this class, so you need to go through the U3A team to join.

Pilates and Barre spaces

Almost all Pilates classes are now sold out until September. The only exception to this is the Thursday 8:05pm class which has 2 spaces. You won't be able to book the term now as it's started so the website won't let you, but if you are interested in signing up for the last 4 weeks then get in touch with me. IF you want to give it a go on a pay-as-you-go basis (£9) then you can book that on the website.

Both Barre Fitness classes still have spaces left. These are Tuesdays at 7:05pm and Fridays at 11:10am. Again, if you want to book the remainder of the term then get in touch with me, or you can book a pay-as-you-go space on the website and ocme along to try it!

Pay-as-you-go spaces for all these classes are very rare, so don't miss out on the chance to try these classes before signing up to a block!
