If you’re going to be using the gym, everything starts with an induction with one of our experienced Fitness Instructors, who will help guide you through the use of different machine and equipment tailoring a bespoke gym experience based on your specific needs.
Our staff are keen to share their wealth of knowledge and expertise to help put you at ease when discussing your goals and planning your regular exercise routine. For the more experienced members, you can opt out and get straight to it.

The basic induction is a 30 minute session for members with some gym experience but may not know the basics on how to use our equipment. During the session a qualified fitness instructor will show you the different types of equipent that we offer and how to start using them safely.
For the more experienced, you can opt out of an induction and get straight to it. Qualified staff are never far and available to help and support you, if you need it.
