HANNAH
"I’ve always struggled to stick to any kind of exercise routine, and have always found gyms and classes very intimidating.
Stepping out of my comfort zone in terms of health and fitness has been a really scary concept in the past. Starting our weekly program with Jon has been a game changer!
His relaxed and inclusive approach to fitness has made me feel so welcome, seen and able to achieve! My mindset surrounding wellness and fitness has shifted and for the first time in my life I actually look forward to exercise!
I’m so excited about achieving my goals and becoming stronger and healthier."
FRIDAY NIGHTS
Friday Nights is based on the
social enjoyment of starting the weekend.
A time based session designed to get you moving and completed in time to get back for that Friday night feeling.
The session is designed to keep you working using carefully selected resistance and bodyweight exercises. Long summer evenings spent on the beach & our winter programmes see us getting through some fun comp style WODS - you’ll definitely leave feeling you’ve had a workout!
The workouts are designed at varying weights & difficulty giving everyone the ability to train side by side and to their own level.
We think it's a great way to start the weekend, come along and see what you think.

WHAT TO EXPECT at a jerk session
Please arrive ready to go before
the session start time where you will be greeted with a warm welcome from the Jerk family.
Wear suitable footwear, clothing
and bring a drink.
All sessions are designed to be
wrapped up within 1 hour.
Within this time we will go through a warm up, main session & cool down.
In bodyweight sessions there will most likely be burpees, squats, push ups as well as other functional fitness movements you may be used to and a potentially a few new ones too.
In our equipment based sessions expect battleropes, kettlebells, bumper plates, dumbbells, and skipping ropes to name a few.
That’s before we even get to the keg lifting and tyre flipping.
Throw into the mix running on the sand & sand dunes and there you have a Jerk training session!
All sessions are designed to individually push you all within a positive and encouraging environment.
You can modify, scale and rest as you need to. We will be there to help every step of the way.
Please fill in our New Athlete from prior to attending your first session.
WHERE DO I FIT IN?
I've been asking myself this question for years and I'm still never sure.
I always end up getting in the wrong lane in the swimming pool, end up in the wrong heat of runners at races and still never end up in the fast line for self serve till at Tesco.
If you're worried about joining a class as you don't think you're good enough, stop right there. Thank you very much. At the heart of everything we do we want it to be inclusive.
If you're the slowest don't worry. I know it can get competitive, but the only competition it with yourself.
I've been last and first and all the spots in between. trust me when I say there's no better feeling than being last and then kicking someone's ass the next week.
Not that its a competition remember.
