Guests welcome. Wine served before meeting begins. Parking. Maintaining your strength and fitness is as important as you get older as when you were younger but finding a class where you feel comfortable becomes more of a challenge. SLJ - formally known as Sevenoaks Ladies Joggers, has been coaching recreational fitness for 16 years and many of their members are now retired and looking for alternative ways to keep in shape and maintain strength. As a result SLJ in partnership with Kent County Council and Kent Sport have launched three new classes Platinum Fitness Walking, Platinum Pilates and Platinum Strength. SLJ are holding a Platinum Fitness Walking taster session for anyone aged 65+ to get a taste for how the ten week course can boost your fitness, tone your muscles and exercise in a sociable environment. The taster class is free, all you need to do is email sam@sevenoaksladiesjoggers.co.uk to book your free taster walk
