Wednesday 10th March, Issue 09
Do MORE... Be FITTER... Live LONGER!

Welcome to FitHaven's Fit.Newsletter.  Just a quick one this week as last weekend was a bit manic with us being away on the Nordic Walking Weekender in Derbyshire (which was absolutely fabulous by the way - full reports and updates next week but for a sneaky look at the photos click HERE) and then straight back full swing into Classes, Nordic Walking and PT this week...


30 Nordic Walkers and 4 Dogs in Wolfscote Dale, Hartington - Saturday 6th March, Walk Two!

Classes... Get that super fit 'n' toned body by Easter with one or two of these classes this week.  *NEW* Spring BootCamps 2010 burn, tone and blast it off by Easter... Buggy Fitness gets a great turnout with the buggies, weights, kettlebells, bands and mats...  Fitness-Pilates still as popular as ever and all classes are enjoying the revamped functional conditioning moves which are bringing immensely fast results...  NewBody Workouts are fabulously fun express full-body sessions and both venues enjoy groups of all ages turning up for just that!  Fit-Pilates for Men - I LOVE it - bringing you an action-packed, fun challenge to a Wednesday night for the men...  The Stability Balls Workouts is BIG bouncy ball fun for a flat tum and strong back...!  NEW BootyCamp Body Blitz Preview...  A preview clip of my first 10 minute Body Blitz series that I will be offering out to those who are short on time and want to do a little bit extra at home in-between classes...

Nordic Walking... *NEW* Beginners Nordic Walking Course starts on Sunday 14th March to Sunday 28th March so if you want to learn or improve your Nordic Walking technique or simple walk out with us on a Sunday then you need to email to book your places please and it is almost full now!  Email mel@fithaven.co.uk - limited spaces!

Personal Training... What an amazing week it was last week - outside with so many of my clients.  There is so much to do outside with the tracks and trails locally it really is fantastic - Nordic Walking, Jogging, Cycling and even Kettlebells can all be done outside it makes a nice change from being in the studio and the fresh air itself makes you feel invigorated and that's before any exercise. 

So with a wonderful week, weekend and rest of term ahead we hope to see you out there... 

Love, Mel, Neal & Millie xx

WEEKLY Nordic Walking
Nordic Walking Website: http://www.fithaven.co.uk/nordic/index.html

Nordic Walking News: http://www.fithaven.co.uk/nordic/NWN/index.html

  • Nordic Walking uses over 90% of the bodies muscles all without any extra effort and is simply the best outdoor exercise you can do!

  • Walking actually feels easier as you are distributing your weight over four limbs which can also relieve stress from shoulders, back, hips and knees.

  • Nordic Walking can help combat Seasonal Affective Disorder and depression by raising your serotonin levels.

  • An hour of Nordic Walking melts away body fat and burns roughly 400-600 calories per hour, compared to 250 calories of just normal walking without using poles.

  • Nordic Walking helps strengthen your bones, relieves pain from your neck, shoulders and back and can combat the effects of osteoporosis whilst at the same time reducing the load on your knees, hips & ankles.

  • Nordic Walking is for EVERYONE - whether you are unfit or fit, sporty or not, have done it before or not! If you can you walk, then you can Nordic Walk!

Featured Classes This Month: 

'Spring It On' BOOTCamps 2010
Monday and Thursday Nights, 7.20pm, Buckden Millennium Centre

A fabulous full hour crammed full of everything YOU need for a fitter, healthier and more toned body FAST.  These sessions have EXPLODED onto the weekly timetable and bring you a new turbulent training session for the time-strapped person who wants to shape up fast for the spring.  We will be exercising the entire body in just 60 minutes to give resistance and interval training bursts that makes your body burn use lots of energy (calories and fat) during the recovery period, as well as replenish energy levels and speed up your metabolism well after the sessions too.

Read this testimonial from Kylie (pictured above, middle) who has not only made 12 out of 12 sessions last term but has worked so hard over the years and has gained a brand new fit and healthy body to be proud of...

Kylie says...
"Just a little email to say a mahoooosive thank you for BOOTCAMP :-) I have been bootcamping since you started the classes in Jan 2009, and I've only missed 3 classes in that time. I'm well and truly addicted. I can't thank you enough for helping me shrink even more, not only have I lost lbs, but I've lost inches all over too.....for the first time in 20 years I can fit into a size 10, and I am regularly being complimented on my fab new body (its still a work in progress tho). Thank you thank you thank you.....I can't recommend your classes highly enough... Thanks very very very very much... lots of love, Smilee:-)xx"

FIT-Pilates for MEN

Click here to see a Fitness-Pilates for Men class in action: http://www.youtube.com/FitHaven#p/u/0/fQ1t9E49R04 

Wednesday nights, 7.25pm, Buckden Millennium Centre.

Not only is it an immensely fun hour but the atmosphere, energy and determination is second to none and has been an absolute pleasure to teach and be a part of and I can't wait for more next term.  This class is attracting men of ALL ages and from all walks of life, physical conditions, sporting backgrounds, and abilities.  No experience is necessary and you could be benefiting from a massive range of benefits from a stronger more toned core and tummy, a better posture, better flexibility, released aches and pains, released stress, stronger back, and relaxation too.  This could be YOU (or your man) so get involved in the ONLY Male-specific Pilates class this area has to offer. 

£6 per session pay-as-you-go or £5 65+ pay-as-you-go... No need to book - just turn up!
