Parent & Junior Gym

Our 12-15 year old junior members can use the gym under parental supervision at the following times:

Weekdays: Any time apart from 5.15pm to 8.15pm

Weekends: Any time after 12.15pm.

Juniors may use any equipment apart from free weights and our plate-loaded kit. They must do a gym induction and sign a Health Commitment Statement before using the gym for the first time, with the parent also signing the Health Commitment Statement to record their approval.

The parent/guardian must obviously remain in the gym at all times, and we expect parents to keep an eye on their juniors whilst they are exercising, although they might be in a different part of the gym. The usual rules on booking a space, cleaning equipment and general gym etiquette apply.

We offer junior gym floor workouts for our 12-15 year old members and these will continue throughout the Summer. In addition, we are running an extra class on a Wednesday afternoon throughout the holidays.
