FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How can I book a class?

We encourage all customers to book online in advance to avoid disappointment. To book, you can select your venue here as well the class you require, then follow the instructions to finalise the booking.

Do I have to be a member to book a class?

No, you don’t have to be a member to join a fitness class. However, you will need to make a free online account with us in order to make and complete the booking.

Visit the booking site or Better UK app and select 'create an account', or visit our video guides to booking to learn how to create a free online account as a non-member.

What happens if I fail to cancel or attend my fitness class?

For members, a £3 no show charge will be automatically applied to your account if you do not show up to a class that you booked on to. A charge will also be applied if you fail to cancel your class within the four hour period prior to the class starting.

This will also be applied if you do not scan your membership card on arrival, as the system will have no way of knowing you attended. The charge can be paid online or at the leisure centre at your convenience. You will not be able to make any more bookings until it is paid.

If non-members cancel prior to the four hour booking period their account will be credited with the monies paid, that they can use when booking future activities

How do I know what level class to book?

We offer a range of fitness classes and our passionate instructors will offer modifications, so you can still take part if you’re a beginner at a pace that feels right to you. We also offer a variety of Basics classes that teach lower intensity movements. These are suitable for older adults, those new to exercise, or trying a class for the first time.

If you’re not sure what level of class you should book, you can find out by clicking through to the individual classes and checking the description.

If you’re still unsure, feel free to speak to a member of staff in centre. We will be more than happy to advise you.

What should I wear to my fitness class?

For our fitness classes we recommend leisure wear or sports’ clothing that is comfortable , so you can move around easily as well as suitable footwear. For aqua classes, you will need to wear the appropriate swimwear.

If I’m on a class waiting list, when will I be able to join the class?

Booking onto a timeslot from a waiting list is on a first come, first served basis and does not guarantee availability. Members only can join waiting lists, and if a class timeslot becomes available, you will be notified via your email.

I’m pregnant, are your fitness classes suitable for me?

Low impact classes such as yoga and mindfulness may be suitable for some pregnant women. However, every individual is different, and if there is any doubt, we advise all pregnant women to consult with their doctors before taking part.
