This Friday, 10th October, we’re celebrating World Mental Health Day! A reminder that looking after your mind is just as important as caring for your body. This year, why not do something that helps both? Movement is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to lift your mood, reduce stress, and feel more balanced.

Move Your Body, Calm Your Mind

Exercise isn’t just about fitness, it’s a form of self-care. Whether you join a yoga class or take part in a group workout, moving together helps calm your thoughts and releases feel-good hormones. Yoga, for example, encourages you to breathe deeply, stretch gently, and let go of tension. Meanwhile, group exercise classes offer a fun, social way to stay active and connected — something we all need to boost our wellbeing.

So, this World Mental Health Day, try a class, meet new people, and move for your mind as well as your muscles.

For many women, the gym is more than just a place to train, it’s a place to de-stress, build friendships and grow. Our Ladies-Only areas offer a welcoming, supportive space where women can work out with confidence, free from judgment. These spaces aren’t just about exercise; they’re about community, empowerment, and feeling good in your own skin.
