Please note we are open throughout the year. So all Fitness Vibe classes run throughout the October half term school holidays.
Remember you can use your loyalty card at any of our Fitness Vibe classes so why not take advantage of this and try another class style or another venue?
Everyone who has entered this years fun Strictly Sweepstake will now have had a text letting them know which group they are in. There are 15 groups in total. A live draw was done on Wednesday 28th September on social media where this years celebrities were picked at random and allocated to a group. I then sent a group text out the following morning so everyone knew which celebrity they had drawn.
Check out this post showing which celebrity each group has drawn.
Good luck everyone!

New term, new goals. September is a great time to get back to healthy habits and get back on track with your fitness regime. It’s a change in the seasons with nights drawing in after the long days of summer.
September is the time for new beginnings and can be full of promise and exciting projects. So if you haven’t been to class for a while, take those first steps back and invest in your health and fitness.
Come on ladies – let’s rise to the test, and back to your best!
On Monday 15th August we had our annual Fitness Gold summer picnic lunch straight after our Monday morning session. The weather was lovely and we managed to find some dappled shade within the grounds of the venue which was great.
Thanks to Vicky from Saving Thyme Buffet Catering Hull for a super buffet, I can highly recommend her.
We all had a lovely lunch and it’s so nice that we were all able to catch up with everyone from the class.
Fitness, Fun & Friendship!
The kids are now on holiday but the good news is Fitness Vibe classes are running right through the school summer holidays.
During the holiday period you may want to take advantage of the other classes on offer? Maybe try a morning class if you are off for the week? Please note your loyalty card applies to all the Fitness Vibe classes on offer.
Happy holidays!
I intend to run all our classes as usual throughout the hot weather this week and will of course adjust the playlist to suit the weather each day and make the sessions less intense if needed. Low intensity options will be given throughout the classes. I totally understand that we all deal with the heat differently and some of us really struggle with it.
One of the most important tips is to make sure you are fully hydrated before even coming to class and we will also factor in lots of breaks and drink breaks throughout the session. Drinking lots of water helps the body to sweat and cool down. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink fluids, I will keep reminding you to pop to the side and take a drink after most tracks. So please make sure you bring plenty of water with you and I will also have spare water around the room. Another good tip is to bring a cool towel and make sure you wear loose, breathable, lightweight clothing.
I have purchased 6 large fans to help keep the rooms as cool as possible. I will always ventilate, although if it is hotter outside than indoors the windows and curtains will stay closed to shade from the sun. We seem to be managing fine this week and on the really hot days you may even get an ice lolly at the end of class to help cool you down! As a one off there will also be chairs around the room if you feel you would like to do seated exercise.
Regarding our Outdoor Vibe sessions, if the weather is hot please make sure you apply sun cream and wear a hat if needed.
All classes seem to have gone fine this week throughout this hot weather period so all is good. Lets all enjoy the sunshine safely. Katrina x
I would like to thank my Monday morning Fitness Gold Keep it ladies for my lovely 60th birthday gifts. A fantastic card and a very sparkly bottle of fizz, a boots voucher and a voucher to use at one of my favourite eateries – The Brain Jar in Hull’s Old Town. Thank you so much ladies.
If anyone would like to join our fun and friendly exercise to music class, we meet every Monday morning 11am at the Church of Ascension, Calvert Road. You would be made to feel most welcome by this lovely group.
I’m now back from celebrating my 60th birthday in Almyrida, Crete.
I would like to say a massive thank you to all the ladies from my Cottingham classes who put towards my birthday gift. I was very surprised and shocked. I would like you to know Alan, Erin and I had a lovely, memorable day with my gift in Rethymnon. We toured the city on a little train, had a fabulous lunch in an idyllic spot (with a couple of glasses of special fizz) and then visited the local historical sites there.
It was a wonderful family treat and will always be a special memory for me so thank you all x
Thanks to Gaynor, Helen and Elaine for doing such a good job covering all our Fitness Vibe classes whilst I was away.
Here’s to the sensational sixties!
On Friday 27th May we had our Fitness Vibe quiz night at the Civic Hall, Cottingham. It was a great success with 140 tickets sold to Fitness Vibe class members and their friends and family.
Ian Start the chairman of Cottingham Village Trust was an excellent quiz master and really made us work our grey matter! Papa’s of Willerby and Kingswood provided the fish and chip supper with excellent service.
Lots of local busness owners kindly donated to the raffle where the takings were in excess of £400. All proceeds on the night will be going to the Cottingham Village Trust to maintain and retain the Civic Hall in the hands of the local community. Once I have the final figure made on the evening I with publicise it here on the website.
Well done to the team “Spanks!” for taking the first prize, also well done to our joint runners up “Rambling Roses” and “Smarty Pants”.
What a fabulous night we all had. Don’t miss out next year ladies!
