Hello,
I hope you enjoyed your extra hour in bed as the clocks went back – just a quick email to remind you that we are off this coming week for a half-term break.
Half-term dates
There will be no Do Fitness classes the last week of October, that is, from Monday 26 October to Friday 30 October. Classes start again on Monday 2 November.
Osteoporosis 3-minute Risk Check
Last week we had World Osteoporosis Day. Data from various UK health surveys suggest that nearly one in four postmenopausal women in the UK has osteoporosis. Yet many people remain unaware of the factors that may increase their risk. I know I have sent this Risk Check out before, but if you haven’t seen it here, it is:
Great British Bone Check | Free 3-Minute Osteoporosis Risk Check
(If you are not sure what osteoporosis is, go to: Osteoporosis – NHS)
Christmas lunches
Tuesday 15 December 12.30pm sit-down 2-course lunch at Bees Country Kitchen Chorley £22
(To book, put £22 in an envelope with your name and phone number on it, plus your choice of Turkey, Beef or Nut Roast and for afters, Trifle, Xmas Pudding or Cheese and crackers.)

(To book, put £10 in an envelope with your name and phone number on it.)
Cancelling a class
To cancel a class, please go to GymCatch and cancel your booking. If you do this before the class starts, you will receive a class credit for a future class.
Monday mornings 8am Pilates
If you know anyone with limited free time during the day because of work schedules, this class might be a perfect way to start the week.
Zoom chair-based classes for people with MS or other Neurological conditions
If you know anyone with MS or another neurological condition who would like to exercise from home, please ask them to get in touch with me for the link. The amazing local MS Society provides these classes for free. I teach them on Wednesdays and Fridays at lunchtime on Zoom. There are also face-to-face classes twice a month and Hydro weekly. If you know someone who might be interested, please give them my contact details.
