Summer holidays, Parkinson’s, New Longton dates, Syrian Bistro, No Pilates on 13 July and Christmas Do!

Hello everyone

Welcome to the new people who have joined a Do Fitness class recently. Many of you
have commented on how friendly everyone is. Thank you to everyone who has made
new people feel so welcome. It is so incredibly important.
Fiona and I had a stand at Leyland Festival and spoke to a lot of people during the day about exercise options. The message is- there is always something for everyone. We were a bit cold though! It wasn’t a particularly a warm sunny day..


Saturday 13 July
There will be no Pilates on Saturday 13 July but Fiona will take Nordic Walking on
Worden Park. I am at my lovely nephew’s wedding.

New Longton class dates
Due to an event at the hall there will be no New Longton classes on  29 July and 5 August. The regular classes are Chairfit 3.45pm and Pilates 4.30pm on Mondays at New Longton Methodist Church Hall.

Christmas Do.
Yes – this year there will be 3 options: 
1) Rivington Hall Barn Tuesday 26 November -12 to 4pm 
2) lunch in Leyland date and place  undecided  
3) an evening pub get together in Leyland.
The reason I am talking about Christmas in July is that the Rivington Barn Christmas
parties are so popular we need to book by the end of July. If you would like to come to Rivington Hall Barn please pay a £5 deposit by the end of July.  Here is a flavour of
what the Rivington  Hall Barn is like: www.rivingtonhallbarn.co.uk/events/party-nights/christmas-new-year/

Parkinson’s and exercise
There are now quite a few people with Parkinson’s attending Do Fitness classes
especially Circuits, Seated Pilates and Chairfit. Exercise is very important and again it is
finding what suits you. Here is a clip explaining more:

Summer Holidays
The Do Fitness summer holiday is from Tuesday 20 August and we  start back on
Tuesday 27 August -the day after the Bank Holiday. There will be no classes on and from Tuesday 20 August until we start back on Tuesday 27 August.

Syrian Bistro
South Ribble Borough Council have set up a scheme as part of the refugee resettlement
programme called the Syrian Bistro at Café Rococco. It is a monthly event at Saturday
lunchtime and tickets costs £16. I have booked on 27 July.It is really hard to start all over again in a new culture with a new language having lost your home, neighbourhood and maybe even family members. https://www.southribble.gov.uk/Leylands-New-Syrian-Bistro

12 for 10 books of tickets for  Zumba and Nordic Walking
These are now available on the web-site or you can buy them in class. Great for people
who do a few classes a week- it reduces the price down to £4.16 per class from £5.
Look forward to seeing you soon. x
