Come along to Humphrey Park Community Centre on Tuesday mornings at 9.45 - 10.45 for a fun and effective hula hoop aerobics class.
We use Adult sized, weighted hoops for a good, low / medium impact workout and then spend some time learning tricks and moves to wow our friends with.
No worries if you've never hooped before we'll show you how to get going (I learnt when I was 35).
Hooping builds core strength, develops coordination and tones the whole body and is amazingly effective at targetting excess around the waist and stomach (esp mummy tummys, christmas bulge).
Wear comfortable clothing, we provide the hula hoops.
Classes are £5.00 per session, no need to book in advance or £50 for a term (12 sessions).
