We have some extra special surprises for you in honor of International Dance Day as well 🙂

Surprise #1:

We’re debuting an original song, “Come Alive”, that was created specifically for International Dance Day, by award winning and Emmy nominated duo, Rockwell & Litvin.

Their work has been featured on Disney, Netflix, and Marvel and I can tell you first hand, the song is sooooo good and we’re going to be moving our bodies to it with you on Thursday.

Surprise #2:

Speaking of moving our bodies, we’ll be teaching brand new, original choreography to “Come Alive”, which was created by none other than Lady Gaga’s choreographer himself, Richy Jackson!

But you must book your spot to get into one of our free classes.

We’re so excited for International Dance Day, and can’t wait to see you on Thursday, April 29th!

See you soon!

We were delighted to receive the first payment from the Co-op Community Fund recently!

We applied to the Co-op’s Community Fund in order to buy some new equipment for our Gym! We received £1,454.93 which we are hoping to spend very soon!

Unfortunately, since lockdown there has been a huge increase in people buying gym equipment for home use, which has left a massive shortage in the market for commercial Gym Equipment! So, our Gym team, are currently looking for the right things to buy and as soon as we have them, we’ll be posting about it!

Huge thank you to the Co-op for your fantastic community program- it is so appreciated and it’ll be so nice to get some new stuff in the Gym! We have recently extended our Gym’s opening hours too- So why not sign up here. Once you have signed up, one of our Gym Instructors will contact you to arrange an induction and get you started on your fitness journey!

In the meanwhile, if you’d like to support Penistone Leisure Centre and you are a Co-op customer with a Members Card, then please log in to your online account and select us as your chosen charity. Then the Co-op will allocate your share of the community fund to us! The more Co-op Customers who do this, the better facilities we will be able to provide for the community of Penistone and surrounding Areas!

A years worth of lockdown has taken its toll on our health and fitness, so if you are keen to join the gym to get your fitness back, here’s some information for you!
