Across the two days, visitors can try something new and discover what makes Western a great place to stay fit, social, and healthy. The centre’s expert fitness team will be running gym inductions and mini workout sessions, giving guests the chance to explore the latest equipment and get professional advice on reaching their fitness goals.

If group exercise is more your style, there’ll be a variety of fitness class tasters, from energising cardio sessions to relaxing stretches - perfect for beginners or anyone looking to reignite their fitness routine. Please remember to bring a water bottle and towel.

Sports enthusiasts can drop in for badminton and pickleball sessions - great for a friendly match or to learn the basics of these fast-growing, fun racket sports. For families, there’ll be a brilliant mix of junior activities designed to get children moving, laughing, and making new friends in a safe, welcoming environment.

The National Open Weekend is the ideal opportunity to explore the centre’s facilities, meet the friendly Western team, and find out how easy it is to make health and wellbeing part of your everyday life. Whether you’re a seasoned gym-goer or a total beginner, there’s something for everyone. If you have any questions or medical concerns please email western@gll.org
