Hello,
Week beginning 8 November
Hello,
Welcome to our new class members who have joined us recently. My goal is to have something for everyone so there are chair based options (Chairfit and Seated Pilates) if standing for a whole class is out of the question or the Wellbeing Nordic Walking group for a gentler paced walk. Exercise is not only good physically, as we all know, but helps us mentally in so many ways (and there is the social element of group exercise which is vitally important too.) Brain health is boosted by regular exercise.

New start time for Thursday Wellbeing Walk to 3.30pm on Worden Park
We are going to start at 3.30pm from next Thursday 11 November due to it getting darker earlier.

Week beginning 1 November – full timetable
Hello,
We have our full timetable back this coming week with all our usual sessions on.
I am away next Sunday on Pilates training in Manchester for more ideas for class. It feels like we are getting back to how things used to be with face to face teacher training.

Reduced timetable – half-term week.
Hello,
Just a quick message – there will be a reduced timetable in half-term week- week beginning 25 October – next week. There will be no evening classes and no Nordic Walking during the week. If you have already booked something you will get a credit. I am trying to recover from Piriformis Syndrome so I am giving my body a little rest.
Love from Diane

Week beginning 18 October
Hello, It is always good to take on new challenges and continue learning. I was on a basic woodworking course yesterday and it was really good to not be the ‘teacher’. It is useful to experience the other side and what makes you feel comfortable and what doesn’t and what gives you a sense of acheivement- and yes I made planter. Next Nordic Walking Technique Course – 30 October 1pm Worden Park Come and learn about this lovely outdoor exercise which is very sociable too. Poles are loaned to you for the technique course. Chorley Zumba Gold Tuesdays 1.30pm – Primrose Gardens, Fleet Street It was great to be back with my Chorley Zumba Gold group but in a beautiful venue with a sprung floor specially made for a dance class. There is parking on Fleet Street or at Asda. Entrance on Fleet Street. Nordic Walking and nature spotting When we are on our walks we often notice plants, flowers and trees and try to identify them. At this time of year it is all about fungi. Here is a guide to the most common types: Types Of UK Mushrooms: Identification Guide – Woodland Trust The Do Fitness Private Facebook Group If you are Facebook user please join our private group so we can keep in touch with each other www.facebook.com/groups/1113432258991949 Videos on Youtube Please feel free to access our Do Fitness video channel (18) Do Fitness – YouTube Timetable – all classes can be booked through Gymcatch on Book a class – Do Fitness with Diane Oakden Monday 18 October 9.30am Move It Mondays Leyland Methodist Church Hall Turpin Green Lane 10.30am Pilates Leyland Methodist Church Hall Turpin Green Lane 11.30am Zumba Gold Leyland Methodist Church Hall Turpin Green Lane 12.30am Seated Pilates Leyland Methodist Church Hall Turpin Green Lane 6.30pm Nordic Walking Buckshaw Village meet Buckshaw Tesco’s Extra Tuesday 19 October 10am Nordic Walking meet Leyland Tesco’s Extra 1.30pm Zumba Gold Primrose Gardens Fleet Street Chorley 6.30pm Zumba Leyland Methodist Church Hall Turpin Green Lane 7.30pm Pilates Leyland Methodist Church Hall Turpin Green Lane Wednesday 20 October 9.30am Zumba Prospect House Sandy Lane 10.30am Pilates Prospect House Sandy Lane 11.30am Chairfit Prospect House Sandy Lane 3.00pm Nordic Walking Cuerden Valley Berkeley Drive Carpark start Thursday 21 October 4pm Nordic Walking Well Being Worden Park 6pm Nordic Walking Leyland Tesco’s carpark start 7.30pm Pilates Prospect House Sandy Lane Friday 22 October 9.30am Zumba Prospect House Sandy Lane 10.30am Pilates Prospect House Sandy Lane 11.30am Zumba Gold Prospect House Sandy Lane 12.30am Barre/ Standing Pilates Prospect House Sandy Lane Saturday 23 October 9am Pilates 10.30am Nordic Walking Love from Diane x |
