20 weeks of free exercise classes

Fit for Fun provides 20 weeks of FREE exercise classes for voluntary and community sector groups, or groups of families, friends, neighbours or work colleagues in Redbridge.

The emphasis is on having fun with others, whilst taking part in regular physical activities.

Interested in taking part? Here’s what you need to know:

  • Any group of 10 or more people are eligible. All ages welcome (under school age children need to be with a parent/carer).
  • Groups apply to take part by choosing a physical activity they want to do and are matched to a fully qualified and vetted instructor.
  • Your group chooses the day and time.
  • Sessions last for an hour
  • Sessions can take place face to face in a venue of your choice in Redbridge or online in your own home via Zoom/Teams.

Some of the activities which groups are currently undertaking: Yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, chair-based exercise, line dancing, aerobics, Bhangra dance, hooping, legs tums & bums, street dance, golf and many more.

We know from experience that the project has real results in participants' general health and well-being, and participants want to keep on improving their health as they begin to feel better and fitter.

Beyond 20 weeks

We can also advise you on ways to sustain the exercise class, after the 20 free sessions have finished, should the group wish to continue.

Most participants self-fund beyond the 20 weeks, but have also supported others to make successful applications for grants from several funding sources to continue with the exercise.
