Gym Group classes

Been a member for a few years but always stuck to cardio or dabbled with weights with a PT at one point.

Never used their classes.

I'm looking for one of them to build strength/tone, that kind of thing.

I do need to lose some weight but can achieve that via calorie restriction so not looking for a class aimed at weight loss.

So I was wondering if Pilates might be a good choice for shaping up?

It indicates it's a paid class but the website doesn't specify how you make that payment.

Do you take £6 in cash along and hand it over to the session instructor or do they charge the payment card you gave when you sign up?

Anyone know?

Do they have a reception desk at the gym? Maybe you pay there. I like body pump for toning

dementedpixie · 01/01/2020 14:48

Do you pay monthly for the gym? Are classes not included?

I thought all gym group classes were included in the monthly fee

No, not all of them. If you look at the class schedule, on the website, some of them have a pound sign next to them to indicate they are paid classes.

There is no reception desk in my Gym Group gym, just they have a staff office but that's locked most of the time.

Mine has that too but just comes up as £0 when I book it as classes are included in my membership

ouch321 · 01/01/2020 15:13

But wouldn't everyone who was booking a class automatically be a member?
And AFAIK there is just one type of membership.
Otherwise they wouldn't have a login for the website.
Quite puzzled now...

www.thegymgroup.com/why-join-the-gym/ scrolling down gives 2 types of membership which both show free classes. Maybe you can pay as you go without joining the gym

Some classes are paid as they bring someone in to do classes, we have paid yoga classes and also had others in the past. Our paid classes are all £3 per class

TimeToGetMeBack · 01/01/2020 15:22

If you have a printed timetable on the wall I your gym it should give you the price of the paid ones

ouch321 · 01/01/2020 15:27

Time

Are you a Gym Group member as well?

Yes, it says £6 on the website - so do you just hand over cash at the start of the class?

I imagine you pay online when booking the class if it's a paid for one

dementedpixie · 01/01/2020 15:30

Have you tried booking it online?

TimeToGetMeBack · 01/01/2020 17:59

Yes I am. Yes pay cash to the instructor. Some also except bank transfer. Enjoy your class Smile

@dementedpixie when you book online or though the app it only holds your space, you can't pay.
