Active Movers Buddy Program
The Active Movers Buddy Program has been created for adults aged 55+ who are new to the gym or returning after a break from exercise.
Starting at the gym can feel intimidating, especially if it’s been a while. This program provides a relaxed and supportive environment where you can become familiar with the gym, meet other Active Movers members, and build confidence before joining our regular classes.
What is the Active Movers Buddy Program?
The Buddy Program includes a small group fitness class led by one of our experienced instructors. With fewer participants, there is more opportunity to ask questions, learn exercises at your own pace, and become comfortable in the gym environment.
Current Active Movers members also attend each session as “buddies”. They’ll introduce themselves, share their experiences, and help you feel welcome from your very first class.
Following the session, everyone is invited to stay for a complimentary tea or coffee and chat which is a great opportunity to get to know your instructor and fellow participants in a relaxed setting.
Your Welcome Pack
At your first session, you’ll receive a complimentary Active Movers Welcome Pack to help you get started. Your Welcome Pack includes an Active Movers group fitness timetable, a drink bottle, a gym towel and a few more things.
