Q: What times are exercise classes at my Holmes Place Health Club and where can I find further information about the types of classes?
A: You will find a current timetable of all studio and aqua classes and a list of facilities on the section of the website dedicated to your club. You can find your clubs by clicking on the club locator button to the left and selecting your specific health club. Alternatively please pick up a timetable from reception.
Q: Do I need to book before going to a class?
A: Some popular classes may require booking for entry. These classes will be marked on the timetable. Your club will have its own booking system, so it is advisable to check with reception to find out which system it operates.
Q: What should I wear?
A: For high-impact classes such as aerobics and step it is advisable to wear supportive trainers with non-marking soles. For holistic classes such as Yoga, Pilates or Tai Chi, it is wise to wear an extra layer, in case you get cold between stretches.
Q: Should I bring a drink into the class with me?
A: It is really important to keep hydrated whilst working out, particularly during energetic classes. Water fountains are located throughout the club but it is far more convenient to bring a water bottle with you, so you can sip water during your class. Most clubs sell water bottles at reception - they're convenient to carry round the club if you're in the gym or doing a class.
