145 bpm is known to elevate your mood<br />
and so Nick, our in- house DJ compiles<br />
uplifting playlists and mixes the music<br />
for the classes to provide a unique<br />
exercise experience.<br />
“We have a number of regular clients<br />
now and it is brilliant to share the<br />
fruits of our week together, as well as<br />
keeping fit. People who danced when<br />
they were younger have tried the class<br />
and wondered why they ever stopped<br />
and the classes are open to all ages and<br />
abilities, so everyone is welcome! So far<br />
the age of our clients had been 21-83! So<br />
we are fully inclusive!<br />
We have an abundance of gyms that<br />
cover a multitude of lifestyles - 24 hours,<br />
family friendly, specialising in weights,<br />
fully trained personal trainers on hand.<br />
You name it, <strong>Uckfield</strong> has it.<br />
And, if you danced when young, why<br />
not try and get fit with dance? Michelle<br />
Clark runs new adult Dance Fit sessions<br />
on Monday evenings at EDDA studios in<br />
central <strong>Uckfield</strong> from 8.45pm, and on<br />
Wednesday’s at Horsted Health Club,<br />
East Sussex National from 7.30pm.<br />
Michelle says: “The NHS website<br />
recommends dance for fitness ,and our<br />
classes provide you with the opportunity<br />
to do just this ‘on your doorstep’ with<br />
both a central <strong>Uckfield</strong> and a Health<br />
Club location, and both in purpose built<br />
dance studios. Listening to music above<br />
"My brother, Nick Clark, and I began<br />
connecting with people in Sussex and<br />
Kent who were in a similar position and<br />
discovered lots of people looking for a<br />
new purpose in their lives and wanting<br />
to connect with people in their local<br />
community. The main aims for the<br />
classes were therefore to give people the<br />
opportunity to exercise, have a giggle<br />
and enjoy sharing time together on a<br />
weekly basis."<br />
Active isn’t just about sport though, it<br />
might be about becoming active in your<br />
community -You could adopt an area<br />
in the town and keep it kept and tidy,<br />
volunteer with on of the many clubs and<br />
associations in the town or even take<br />
a hand in politics with May being the<br />
local and District elections.<br />
So whatever you’re looking to do, theres<br />
a club, group, person to help you along<br />
the way. What will your new ACTIV-ity<br />
be?
