Not every workout needs to be loud, busy, or rushed.

Dovedale has spaces designed for quieter sessions - whether that’s focused strength work, stretching out in the studio, or taking things at your own pace.

Sometimes progress looks like calm, consistency and having room to breathe 💙✨

Parents... don't forget about yourself this summer👆

Between work and family life, finding motivation (and time!) to exercise can feel like a real challenge for parents.

Here’s a few quick tips to help you make movement part of your routine:

🏋️Reframe your expectations.
Just 15 or 20 minutes of exercise can make a big difference.

🏃Add fitness to your basic routine
Things like a school drop-off walk are easy ways to include exercise to your routine.

👭Buddy up!
Working out with a friend is a great way to stay motivated.

It's Mental Health Awareness Week!

This year's theme is ACTION, so here are 3 actions to help support good mental health!💜

Tip #1 - Plan something to look forward to📆

Making plans to do things we enjoy can increase positivity. It could be a fun workout with a friend or a coffee to have a quiet moment by yourself

Tip #2 - Make time for friends👭

Building relationships and spending time with friends can give you emotional support, but its also a great reason to have a catch up!

Tip #3 - Move regularly🏃

Getting active can improve your mood and relieve stress. It doesn't have to be an intense HIIT class! Even a short walk can help support good mental health!

For more top tips to boost your mental health and to find out more about this year's Mental Health Awareness Week, go to https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/
