You sure do. FS8 exercises are designed to minimise the impact on your joints, but this doesn’t mean you won’t need that sweat towel. Our classes are low on impact and high on sweat so get ready to build strength and endurance and feel those muscles burn!
FS8 classes are designed so you can attend every day if you choose. Each day of the week has a different focus and consists of a variety of movement patterns. This means we are always changing the load on the body so you are not overworking one particular muscle or muscle group.
If you have an injury, you must first seek professional advice from your medical practitioner. Once you have been given clearance to exercise from your medical practitioner, you must notify our instructors who can then modify any exercises to cater to your injury and suit your fitness level.
