Heather's Fit Kit Drills - NEW SEPTEMBER DATES!

These intense workouts combine TRX suspension training with the ViPR.

Heather's sessions use both pieces of kit to create a unique all over body challenge. Limited to a small group, you’ll receive highly personalised attention & get maximum results for your time & effort.

Give us your drive & determination. We’ll give you sweat & smiles!

Where & When:

Thu 2 Oct - 6.15am to 7.00am - Wimbledon Park, Revelstoke Rd entrance

Cost: £8.50 per class
