Gym Induction

Before attending their first junior gym session here at Prestwood, all juniors must book and attend a junior gym induction. These inductions are conducted by our Fitness Instructors who hold a level 2 qualification, and are conducted in small groups of up to five people. The inductions last 30 minutes and cover all health and safety information pertaining to the gym. Our Instructors will also explain gym etiquette, demonstrate the equipment that juniors are permitted to use during the sessions, and instruct on how to use it safely.

BOOK INDUCTION

Adult & Child Gym Sessions

Would you like to bring your child to the gym at Prestwood for free?

Our Adult and Junior Gym sessions allow our pre-paid adults to bring a child to the gym for free. The booking must be made by an adult who books the Adult and Junior gym session with their membership. Juniors must be supervised by the adults at all times. Adult and junior gym sessions are available at weekends from 3pm. The adult must actually supervise the child at all points, and must take responsibility for the child. Only children between 11-15 are permitted into these sessions. The session is limited to one child per adult. If the adult isn’t supervising the child or the child misuses or misbehaves then both parties may be asked to leave.
