Happy New Year

Posted on: January 5th, 2015 by David Finch

Happy New Year to each and everyone of you.  Hopefully the festive break was full of laughter and cherished memories and you are now rested and raring to go for 2015.

All of our classes are back to normal from this week so there is no time like the present to dust off your training equipment and start the year with a bang.

There are lots of exciting things planned for this year and we are all looking forward to seeing you back in class this week.

Best Wishes for 2015
