This allows our instructors to set out a specific program for your needs

Session 1 will be where you will receive a programme to work from, while sessions 4 and 8 will be review sessions. These review sessions will be to check on your progress and to help make any changes to your programme. Week 12 is your final review and discharge from the Exercise Referral programme.
