What Our Clients Have To Say
Before attending the (chair dance) group i feel low in my mood with no motivation after the class i feel more motivated and my mood has lifted.

Fantastic song choices, loads of varied routines which are so enjoyable it feels more like enjoying a good dance until I remember I'm bright red and drenched in sweat! Love the classes!!
Karen, Fitness Fusion Gomersal - Active Communties
Taking part in the sessions weekly lifts my mood and it makes me feel like taking a walk so i am continuing to be active. I enjoy the social side to the group, we all have a laugh!!
Mavis, KNH Syke Fold Grange - Older Peoples Health Initiative
Taking part in the Chair Dance makes me think which is good stimulation for my brain, i really enjoy it!! Always feel good after i have taken part, it helps to relax me.
Jim, KNH Syke Fold Grange - Older Peoples Health Initiative
Sophie has been working with our scheme since January 2018 and the tenants who participate all thoroughly enjoy it!! The group has grown bigger and bigger each week, i have noticed that some residents especially the men who never normally join in any activities + initially said “it wasn’t for me” have been hooked. All the tenants think it is positive to do the chair dance exercises and are pleased that the sessions have been extended due to popular demand.
One tenant stated that from taking part in the chair dance exercise session she has felt a slight improvement in her back pain, it now doesn’t ache as much when she goes on her daily walks to Cleckheaton Town. Another tenant said he continues with the some of the moves + exercises that Sophie has shown the class in his own time to ensure that he is keeping up with regular physical activity.
Tracy Lawton, KNH Social Housing Scheme Coordinator, Syke Fold Grange - Older Peoples Health Initiative
I really enjoy this weekly chair dance session, i love the group atmosphere, the laughter as well as the exercise and the variety of the music. Laughter is a very good medicine! Being in a wheelchair, i find the exercises are progressive and always varied week to week to keep us working but always at our own pace. Although i get tired from taking part in the exercise it does liven me up for the day
Moira, Vale Circles Mental Health Hub - Mental Health Wellbeing Scheme
I enjoy the Chair Dance because it helps with my coordination. After the session with Sophie i feel younger, this is down to the music choices and the dance moves that we do!
Cath, KNH Syke Fold Grange - Older Peoples Health Initiative
Love your classes Sophie, always a great workout!!
Sarah, Fitness Fusion Gomersal - Active Communities
As hard as I find it.. lol I love it! Funnily enough it is becoming easier the more I do it! The music is great and it definitely helps to keep me motivated during class. You are a fab instructor, always pushing us to do better! Thank you Sophie!!
