It was with great sadness on Friday 5th Oct that we learned of the loss of our good Class Fitness friend Kathy Dempsey.

All monies need to be paid to the venue by 1st week of November.

New Members
A big 'thank you' to all our loyal members who have been referring folks to classes these past few weeks. Gift vouchers will be heading your way in recognition and thanks!
And to those of you who have joined new classes - Welcome to The Class Fitness Family! I hope you have enjoyed your classes so far and look forward to welcoming you to many more.
By far our best advert is from happy customers referring to others, however I'm also after a little bit of help in other advertising ...can you help?
If you have a noticeboard at work or know of a local board where we could put up a poster please could you pick up one in class and pop it up for us?
Also, if you are local to the Hoole and Upton areas would you mind distributing some of our fliers down your street?
And if you are feeling creative, might you like to write a testimonial which I can share on our website?
Every little helps in keeping our classes buoyant and lively and of course allowing others to benefit from the services we offer.

After my successful metric marathon race a couple of weeks ago I must say my running has gone right off the boil! So to keep my marathon dreams alive I'm going to call it a day there and go lace up my trainers and hit the road.
Whether you are relaxing or having an action packed Sunday, enjoy!
