Our approach to physical health is simple: To look and feel your best your body needs a blend of
fitness and health, movement and relaxation. Our centre combines the best of the Wellness worlds.
Aquacise / Leisure 50 Aquacise - Whatever your age or
ability Aquacise is a fantastic way to get fit. Water acts as a
natural resistance without causing stress to the muscles and
joints. Great for weight loss, tone and increasing your fitness.
Back to Basics - Learn basic core exercises and posture to
help you to get the best from Kinesis.
Body Fusion - This class is a mixture of Yoga, Pilates and
Flexibility. Perfect for allowing your body to work in harmony.
Kinesis - Kinesis is a whole new way to work out, allowing the
body a free range of movement. Kinesis adapts to the body
rather than the other way around using resistance modules.
Perfect for rehab, de-conditioned users, seniors and athletes.
Kinesis is great for burning calories: Kinesis recruits more
muscle groups than traditional strength training resulting in
30% more calories burned. Athletes find that Kinesis programs
can be designed to mimic their sport to help maximise
performance.
Kinesis Back Care Six Week Courses - Over the six-week
course you will learn about posture, core stability, functional
movement, stretches, relaxation techniques, pain tolerance
and the benefit of safe, affective exercise. We cannot promise
to cure your back problem but we will provide you with the
knowledge of how to improve and cope with your condition.
Many satisfied customers have successfully completed the
course and gone on to enjoy a new lease of life.
Kinesis Core – This session is for you if you have a back
problem and have attended back care sessions and are ready
to progress your exercise or if you would like to improve your
core strength, protect your back and incorporate an all over
body workout.
Open Sessions - We recommend that you attend a minimum
of 6 sessions with a Wellness Consultant before attending the
Kinesis Open Sessions. For your benefit we advise that you
continue to attend kinesis sessions to ensure that you do not
de-train.
