What is Junior Gym?
Junior gym is a dedicated session for children between 11 and 18 years old to introduce them to working out in the gym and help them start their journey towards a healthy and active lifestyle. All sessions are supervised, with a member of the Fitness team present, to ensure they are working out safely. Membership also includes access to our Junior Fitness Classes that take place on the gym floor during the allocated sessions.

Adult & Junior Gym (11-17yrs)

The reservation must be made by the Junior who books the Adult & Junior Gym session with their membership. Adults do not need to book the session but must pay for the gym session if they are not a member. The junior must be supervised and accompanied by an adult at all times.
Session Days & Times: Saturday & Sunday 3:00pm - 3:50pm
Supervision: Please note that the adult/parent must actively supervise the child at all times and takes responsibility for the child's conduct and safe use of machines. Only children between 11-17yrs are permitted in the session, and it is limited to one child per one supervising adult. If an adult is not supervising the child or the child misuses the gym equipment or misbehaves, both parties may be asked to leave.
