Successes

We have had some amazing success stories recently!  And I just want you to know that I see you and I am so impressed with all your effort and hard work! 

Whether that success is overcoming your fear and achieving your first ever box jump;

 or picking up the heavier weights and being surprised at how strong you are;

 to more profoundly lifechanging news from the doctor that you have reversed your pre-diabetes through regular exercise and healthy eating;

or you are starting to feel like yourself again after having a baby – it has been wonderful to play a part in your fitness journey and really makes what we do at Flixton Fitness so incredibly worthwhile. 

Spring HIKE

I love the supportive atmosphere we have created at the gym and I thought it might be fun to take that spirit and climb a big hill!  Rivington Pike in fact! Would you like to come – feel free to bring the family too!

What – A big gym family hike – suitable for dogs, however there are lots of steps and paths are uneven so the route isn’t suitable for buggies, we can wear the babies instead!

When – Sunday 16th March at 2pm

Where – Car Parking is free at Rivington Hall Barn – BL6 7SB

Who – Everyone is welcome, bring the whole family

Why – To get to know each other outside of class and feel the achievement of walking up a massive hill!

Wear – Comfortable shoes that you don’t mind getting a bit muddy and pack a lightweight jacket as its Bolton and likely to rain! Snacks also go down well!

Let me know if you are coming!

Joining Flixton Cricket Club

It has been 3 years since the Club kindly opened its doors and invited us in!  In that time they have given us space to develop and grow.  But now it’s time to pay that good will back.  The Club have asked if all Flixton Fitness members could please join the Cricket Club for an annual fee of £45. 

What do you get for less than £4 a month?

-            Free room hire – got a big birthday or anniversary coming up?  Your annual membership will entitle you to free hire of the function room (worth £100!)

-            15% Discount on drinks at the bar ALL YEAR ROUND!

-            Arguably Flixton’s best beer garden and an absolute delight in the summer months

-            Access to other sports like Tennis Court hire, Cricket and Junior Cricket practice, bowling, table tennis, karate, darts

-            Early access to tickets for the epic Flixton Festival on 24th August bank holiday weekend – did someone say Shola Ama was playing?

-            Plus, by becoming members of the club, you massively help Flixton Fitness – it means that we will have a greater say in sharing the room, I can add more classes to the timetable (subject to agreement) and proves to the Club that Flixton Fitness is here to stay!

So can I kindly ask that if you are a ‘Pay Monthly’ or ‘Block Booker’ or come regularly as a PAYGer please could you sign up for Flixton Cricket Club membership by the end of April. 

Here is the link you need to join and this is mega important please could you scroll to the bottom and click Adult Social - Flixton Fitness £45 – https://membermojo.co.uk/FCSC

Everyone who signs up will get a free Flixton Fitness T Shirt!

Lastly, a special message to those of you who are new.  Well done for sticking with it, the first few weeks are always the hardest but I hope you now look forward to your workouts and have found your tribe!

Our mission is to provide a fantastic workout, at a modest price, to be surrounded by like-minded people who are supportive and uplifting.  It is about exercising for health and longevity, aging gracefully, enjoying life free from injury and disease for as long as possible and using exercise as ‘me time’ and getting that much needed head space from the noise of the outside world.  It’s about building resilience, determination and self-belief and when things feel tough, you’ve got a band of brothers and sisters who are all there to lift you up.

You have certainly done that for me over the last few difficult months!

Hopefully see you on the Hike!

Lots of love
