Who can attend junior gym sessions?

Any member aged between11-15 years can attend these sessions.  Your child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian aged over 18 at all times. Once your child turns 16 they will need their own membership and can use the gym unaccompanied.

It is the parent / guardians responsibility to ensure that their child is following the gym rules, acting responsibly and not exercising beyond their ability.

Will my child need an induction?

Before you can attend our junior gym sessions, you’ll be required to attend an induction with one of our fully qualified personal trainers where you’ll be shown how to operate the most popular pieces of equipment.  Induction sessions are available every Saturday at 14:00 and Sunday at 13:00. The maximum capacity for these sessions is 8.

What equipment is available for my child to use?

Unfortunately, some of our gym equipment is off-limits to our younger members. In most cases, we just ask you to be sensible and heed the advice of either the parent or the colleague supervising. It is the case, however, that no-one under the age of 16 may use the free weights areas.

You may, however, use some light free weights in the functional area, generally nothing over 5kg. In terms of functional equipment, junior members may use light equipment, including medicine balls, stability balls and BOSU balls. We don’t encourage junior members to use kettle bells, weight sledges, power bags.

During their induction you child will be shown how to use our cardio and resistance equipment safely.

How do I book my child in for junior gym?

  1. Before getting started, your child will need the complete a Health Commitment Statement which must be counter signed by a parent or guardian. They MUST also attend an induction session with one of our personal trainers.
  2. Once inducted, you will be able to book your child into the junior gym sessions up to 7 days in advance. Places are limited and will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
