What is Youth Fit?
It’s a structured gym-based program for 11–15-year-olds. It helps build confidence, learn proper technique, improve fitness, and understand how to use the gym safely.
Can my child just come in and train by themselves?
No – Youth Fit is a fully supervised program. Outside of these sessions, young people under 16 can't access the gym unless part of a separate supervised or youth membership arrangement.

Can my 10-year-old join? They’re very mature.
Youth Fit is strictly for ages 11–15 to ensure age-appropriate training. We’d love to see them next year!
Is this like a PT session?
Not quite – it’s a small group setting led by a qualified fitness coach, with a focus on learning, movement skills, and building confidence – but not personal training.
What does my child need to bring?
Just activewear, closed-in shoes, a water bottle, a towel, and a positive attitude is a bonus too!
Do parents need to stay during the session?
No need to stay – you're welcome to, but the sessions are fully supervised by trained staff.
