Portway Lifestyle Centre’s Brand-New Classes

Portway now offer over 70 classes a week, including 5 different Les Mills Programmes.

Three new classes starting in January at Portway include…

Les Mills BODYBALANCE™: ideal for anyone and everyone, it is a new generation yoga class that will improve your mind, your body, and your life.

You can expect to bend and stretch through a series of simple yoga moves, elements of Tai Chi and Pilates while an inspiring soundtrack plays in the background. Breathing control is a part of all the exercises, and instructors will always provide options for those just getting started.

Les Mills SPRINT™:  A 30-minute High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) workout, using an indoor bike to achieve fast results. It's a short, intense style of training where the thrill and motivation come from pushing your physical and mental limits.

R1ZE: Forget what you think you know about a step class… R1ZE is designed to cover all the bases of fitness and is perfect for people who want to avoid repetitive impact but like to work with bodyweight. R1ZE has variation, ranging from no impact strength to speed and agility. There is no requirement to move to any beat but your own!

 

Inclusive Classes:

All Fitness classes at Portway welcome people with disabilities. The Inclusive classes listed below are specifically designed for people with disabilities:

Chair Yoga (Friday 12:00-13:00): The chair yoga sessions consist of a gentle approach to yoga, using a chair to safely modify traditional yoga postures. These sessions are suitable for less mobile people that have maybe had hip or knee replacements or suffer from arthritis or similar problems and find it difficult to get up and down from the floor. It is also a good starting point for people that have never practised yoga before as it helps to strengthen and prepare muscles enabling people to naturally progress into a regular yoga class.

Inclusive Circuits (Wednesday 10:00-11:00): Inclusive class for all abilities from beginners to mixed ability, including wheelchairs and walking aids! The class takes part on our synergy 360 (Centre of the gym floor). Everyone is Welcome!

Agewell Chair Based Strength & Balance (Thursday 11:00-12:00).
