Need a Gentler Type of Excercise?

Leave a Comment

We’re committed to providing activities for everyone here at Penistone Leisure Centre.

There are lots of reasons you might need to take it steady. If you need a gentler form of excercise, we have a few options here for you!

Come along to PenActive– it’s our youth club for older people! A great way to socialise and keep fit with different taster sessions of gentle activities every week! Activities such as table tennis, boccia, chair aerobics, dancing, yoga etc. This class is FREE thanks to funding from Penistone Ward Alliance (Penistone Area Team) and is every Tuesday 1:30-3:30pm

Or why not try Walking Netball? Run by Hannah Burton in association with Netball England, this new session is a gentler version of the sport. It’s on Fridays at 1-3pm and costs £4 which includes refreshments too.

Or if you love to dance, why not try SOSA dance fitness on Mondays at 10:30am. SOSA is one of those activities that you can go at your own level, working on learning the steps and then doing the routines! Class costs £4 drop in and there’s no need to book, though there are discounts for block bookings.

Or come down when our friendly, qualified gym instructors are in session, and they’ll help you to put together a training plan that suits you and your fitness level.

Skate 7/9 Time!

Leave a Comment

It’s nearly time for another Skate 7/9… Our next date is Friday 21st June!

What is Skate 7/9? It’s a session for everyone in school years 7-9 and runs on the third Friday of every month from 7-9pm

We have loud music (you can bring your own and we’ll put it on), disco lights, snacks and drinks and space to hang out with your friends when you’re not skating. Beginners are welcome as well, you can try out skating with your friends.

Adults don’t usually stay, but a parent/guardian needs to fill in a Permission Form with emergency details. Ask a parent/guardian to print and complete it and bring it along or to pop into reception and fill it in the first time you come to the session. You will then be issued with a membership card, which you can show at future sessions so we know we’ve got your contact details.

Session costs £4 and includes skate/blade hire if needed.

For school year 2018/2019 this is children with birthdays between 01/09/2004 and 31/08/2007.
