All sessions are free to attend unless otherwise stated. Friends, family members or support workers can join the sessions too – they must pay the same as you do, if there is a charge.
If you need to reserve a place on a session, follow the link to do so online.
You can also watch pre-recorded exercise sessions online. We offer a range of home-based programmes that you can work through at your own pace.
