Happy New Year! Classes start Tuesday 3 January

Hello,
First of all I just want to wish you a wonderful Happy New Year!
The break has been peaceful and full of lovely family moments and I finally recovered from the nasty bug but I am looking forward to getting back into our exercise routine.


New class- Chairfit class 11.15am Thursdays St Mary’s Community Centre (formerly The Priory Club)
I have been asked to take over a chair exercise class at St Mary’s Community Centre on Broadfield Drive. This gives you more options for chair based exercise. Starts Thursday 5 January.

New class- Nordic Walking Tuesdays 11.30am from Tuesday 10 January

We are going to have a Tuesday Nordic Walking group again from 10 January starting at Leyland Tesco Extra carpark.

Money raised for local MS Society knitted Teddies
You raised £75 by buying the knitted Teddies for stocking fillers. Thank you to you and especially to Judith for all her hard work knitting. A big thank you from the Chorley and Leyland MS Society. Chorley and Leyland Group | Multiple Sclerosis Society UK (mssociety.org.uk). They have really helped me and some class members over the years.

‘After Christmas’ Christmas Do Leyland
I had no luck finding a suitable venue in Leyland for a Chrismas Do this year so I have decided to wait until after Christmas when the banqueting suite (old barn) will be available at Worden Hall. It has been totally refurbished and is looking beautiful but not quite ready yet.

Week beginning 21 November

Hello,
Welcome to you if you have joined one of our Do Fitness classes recently. I send our newsletter out every Sunday morning, so you know what is coming up in the next week and of course the timetable is on Gymcatch via Timetable and book a class – Do Fitness with Diane Oakden

Posture and back pain
Most of us get back pain at some point in our lives. It may be due to a sports-related injury, an accident, or a congenital condition such as scoliosis. But most of the time, upper or lower back pain develops during the course of day-to-day life. Repetitive activities at work or home, such as sitting at a computer or lifting and carrying, may produce tension and muscle tightness that result in a backache. Fortunately, there’s a lot we can do to prevent this sort of problem. General physical fitness and a healthy weight are important. But one surprisingly simple strategy can go a long way: Paying attention to your posture.
