CLASS: CORE & CARDIO
STRONGER CORE. BETTER FITNESS.
Core strength meets cardio in a session that helps you feel stronger, fitter and more capable day to day.
WHAT IS CORE & CARDIO?
Strength Where It Matters.
Core & Cardio combines exercises that strengthen your midsection with cardio intervals that help improve your overall fitness and stamina.
A stronger core can help support better movement, balance and stability - whether you’re exercising, lifting, walking or simply getting on with everyday life.
Add in the cardio element and you’ve got a varied session that helps you move better, feel stronger and improve your fitness at the same time.

WHAT IT TARGETS
Stability. Stamina. Strength.
CORE STRENGTH
We go beyond just crunches. You’ll work the muscles around your midsection to help build better strength, stability and control - supporting the way you move both in the gym and everyday life.
CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS
The cardio intervals get your heart rate up and help improve your stamina and overall fitness. Over time, everyday things like walking, climbing stairs and keeping up with the family can start to feel easier.
BALANCE & EVERYDAY MOVEMENT
A stronger core can help support better balance, posture and movement, giving you more confidence in the gym and in day-to-day life. It’s not just about working your abs - it’s about building a stronger, fitter body that serves you well outside the gym too.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Anyone Who Wants to Move Better.
Core & Cardio is ideal for anyone who wants to improve their core strength, fitness and confidence with movement - whether you’re getting back into exercise after a long break or already train regularly.
If you spend a lot of time sitting at a desk, want to keep up with the kids or grandkids, enjoy playing sport or simply want to feel stronger and more capable day to day, this session can be a great addition to your training.
Everything can be adapted to suit your fitness level, with a coach there to guide you throughout.
‘My back pain is gone. My posture is better. I'm faster in every other class. Core & Cardio fixed things I didn't even know were broken.’
