What an interesting week with so many great conversations about health and fitness in the media and on TV.
I hope your classes are busy and buzzing so here are a few ideas and inspirations for you. Do feedback to me I love to hear what you think 🙂
Park run and the NHS 70th Birthday.
On Saturday 9th June the NHS it’s celebrating 70 year birthday and to celebrate there are over 350 ParkRun events all over the UK ***Why not take a group and get involved in your local ParkRun 5K this week?****
Launched by double Olympic gold medallist Dame Kelly Holmes, over 350 local parkruns will be hosting special events to celebrate the contribution of the NHS to the nation, whilst encouraging people to get active.
With support from local NHS bodies, local parkruns will give their regular events a special NHS theme for the day with NHS staff, patients and the wider public being encouraged to attend.
Parkruns are free, 5k events that take place in hundreds of locations across the UK every Saturday morning. They are coordinated entirely by volunteers and are open to walkers and runners of all ages and abilities.
Getting involved
There are now more than 350 parkruns signed up to be part of NHS70 Parkrun day with more expected to join. Please contact your local parkrun to get involved and don’t forget to register.
LOVE ISLAND – Everyone seems to be talking about Love Island and how the programme features girls of a certain look and size and how they missed an incredible opportunity to use a more representative group of individuals. There has been so much written about this on social media. What kind of message does this send to young and impressionable viewers? The idea that you need to be thin to be considered attractive and worthy of love is it potentially damaging? What do you think?
The show attracts record numbers of viewers and with the Body Positivity message featuring so much more in the mainstream media, it looks like that message didn’t quite reach the producers of Love Island.
LESLEY
After working as my PA and C2GO Admin for 9 years Lesley Smith is moving on from Choreographytogo. Many of you will have spoken to Lesley on the phone and on email over the years. Lesley has been the friendly and helpful voice at the end of the phone when you have been calling up to book events, lost passwords and providing excellent customer support and service. I’d personally like to thank Lesley for all her hard work, commitment and support and wish her all the very best for the future.

Flins Fitness is surrounded by gyms and leisure centres and the competition is fierce locally… So how does Flins Fitness stay ahead of the curve?
By offering niche classes and catering for demographics the mainstream gyms don’t and it’s a winning formula. Flins Fitness cultivates a strong community spirit with the annual Charity Fitness event and Fran works hard promoting the business with effective and modern marketing using social media.
