The Active Lifestyles team hosted the second Energia Fitness Fun Day on Wednesday 18 June. With a record number of 420 participants, the event once again was a big success! Imperial students and staff members were able to enjoy a range of free fitness activities, free t-shirts and prizes for gym challenges! Also, for one day only, all the studio group exercise classes were free of charge!
The team also invited external guest trainers to run a selection of brand new classes, including the Les Mills ShaBam, BodyStep and Body Jam; Belly Dancing and the very fun Boxing Fit and Jumping Fitness!
Katherine Parkins said ‘Boxing was fun in the sun! I enjoyed the change of scenery and I find it cool that I could have a good punch up with colleagues!’
Sharon Sheenan said ‘Jumping Fitness was wicked! It really gets your heart going and it feels like a full body work out.’
The Active Lifestyles team would like to say special thank you to everyone participated in the event! We would also like to say thank you to Angela Cameron who gave up her own time to teach back to back classes; Julia Balazova for volunteering to bring Jumping Fitness to Imperial – it was a class enjoyed by on-lookers and all who attended. Finally, we would like to thank the Belly Dancing Society, the class was very unique and it appealed to very diverse audience.
