More Awards?

KEiBA Awards

WE DID IT!

We have made it into the final 3 of the Kent Excellence in Business Awards in the Leisure and Tourism category.  This is an amazing achievement for the team and demonstrates their high level of expertise, professionalism and dedication.  From 265 entries we have made it to the final 3 from the entire Kent County.  I hope you join me in wishing the gang luck on June 30th for the final awards ceremony.

Weighty Matters

 

I was highly amused to see a queue for the NEW scales on my last visit to the centre, but what was even better were the shouts of joy as everyone who hopped on had reached their goal.  They are not magic scales, so well done to all of you who are working so hard and listening to your trainers.

Science News

 

  

Moderate exercise dramatically improves brain blood flow in elderly women - Science Daily

Older and stronger: progressive resistance training can build muscle and increase strength as we age - Science Daily

 

Headlines like these are hitting the front pages in America this week. And yes, they apply to us in Britain, too.

Does climbing the stairs get you DOWN, not UP? Do you suffer from creaking limbs? Do you want to stay active and flexible as you grow older?

Well, just remember that being "retired" doesn't have to mean "tired". Now, in partnership with the University of the Third Age (U3A), we are hosting a special evening to help spruce up our seniors.

Better Body Shop founder Jason Crow and his team will be hosting the night and giving a presentation. It's free, loads of folks have already booked in, and you are very welcome to come along.

The event will be held at The Better Body Shop, in Bat and Ball Road, Sevenoaks, on Saturday, June 11 between 2pm and 4pm.

Among topics being discussed will be the benefits of exercise in retirement, how to avoid aches and pains by taking gentle exercise daily, the value of stretching and posture.

There will be demonstrations by our fitness instructors, who have recently won awards for customer care by the way (and hope to get more, see the KEiBA update!) - so you'll be well looked after.

You can take a look at all our gym equipment and join in a guided tour of our new facilities. All your questions will be answered and we'll even lay on free tea and biscuits.

Do you ever:

·         lose your balance?

·         feel out of breath easily

·         suffer from aching joints when you get out of bed in the morning?

·         feel lethargic and a bit down

·         lack energy to enjoy life to the full?

 

If you don't take regular, gentle exercise, you can risk limiting your mobility. So do join us on Saturday, June 11 between 2pm and 4pm. It's free so bring a friend.

ALSO remember that we host classes called "Sprucing up the Seniors" every Tuesdays and Wednesdays between 2pm and 3pm.

The Great Wall of Sevenoaks

 
  

 

You've heard of the Berlin Wall (that came down). And the Great Wall of China (that's still up.

Now we've unveiled the Great Wall of Sevenoaks.

Hundreds of clients pass through our doors - and now, thanks to a new scheme for businesses - they could all hear about YOUR business free of charge on our wall.

If you want to spread the word about your company, we are happy to display your business card, current special offer notices, leaflets or posters on our new local business wall.

At our centre in Bat and Ball Road, Sevenoaks, we will happily post your cards and literature so that clients who come to train here can read all about you.

To take advantage of this offer, just ask at reception the next time you're in.

 

Zumba - HOW MUCH FUN? 

Zumba cartoon

 

Zumba has lifted off with great success - with a dozen plucky ladies taking to the floor for our first class.  Nikki, our brilliant new Zumba instructor, set a cracking pace - and everyone kept up and thoroughly enjoyed the session.

 

Zumba, for those of you who haven't yet discovered the hugely popular Latin dance-aerobics craze, is completely addictive.

So the ladies have all signed in for their next class already.

Because the Better Body Shop's amazing new premises, measuring 10,000 square feet, are almost as big as an aircraft hangar, there's room for plenty more Zumba fans though.

And if you fancy joining in the fun, all we ask is that - because of its growing popularity - you book in advance please to avoid disappointment.

Classes cost £7, last one hour, and all you need is normal gym kit, trainers and a towel. Classes run:
Thursday June 2nd at 1pm
Tuesday June 7th at 6.30pm
Thursday June 9th at 1pm
Monday June 20th at 1pm
Tuesday June 21st at 6.30pm
Thursday June 23rd at 1pm
then Mondays at 1pm, Tuesdays at 6.30pm and Thursdays at 1pm

Book today! Call 01732 451979 or email info@betterbodyshop.co.uk

 Please note our old telephone number 01732 749640 which is connected to Godfreys will be disconnected this month.  The new direct number to the centre is 01732 451 979. Carol will be taking your calls from 8.30 am to 12.30 and again from 17.30 to 20.30.
