What Our Clients Have To Say

I really enjoy the group! It is so beneficial for my mood swings. In my life i have been to many classes and was surprised how much of a workout chair dance gives. Sophie is very positive and encouraging and is full of great ideas. Nice music choices.

Sara, Lovell Park Hub - Mental Health Wellbeing Scheme

Great classes, great workout and most importantly always fun...oh and great music tracks too!!

Natasha - Fitness Fusion Gomersal - Active Communities

Friendly enviroment. Exercise is suitable for disabled individuals. Very friendly and supporting teacher, it is a pleasure having Sophie teach us. I like how she makes the session specifically designed for people with disabilities and for those without. She is always so positive and is always bringing new creative ideas to the group - the music choices are also great!! Long may it continue!!

Jane, Vale Circle Mental Health Hub - Mental Health Wellbeing Scheme

Enjoyment... Exercise... It really helps with joint movement due to my arthritis and osteoporosis.

Marguerite, Vale Circles Mental Health Hub - Mental Health Wellbeing Scheme

I have been diagnosed with Parkinsons and Schizophrenia so i was interested in the sessions as it was something different to what i was doing at the hospital - i wanted to do something new. I like the music that Sophie plays, it takes me back. I really enjoy coming on a regular as i get some time to myself and i like the exercises, i know that they are good for me. I have been taking part for a while now so i can feel the difference in my muscles. I sometimes do the exercises at home.

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!!

Sarriah, Fitness Fusion Huddersfield - Active Communities

I come for the fun of it, i like the music - it makes me want to get up and dance!! When i come in to the Vale on a morning i might sometimes be down but after i join in the chair dance i feel so much better

Catherine, Vale Circles Mental Health Hub - Mental Health Wellbeing Scheme

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.

Katherine, Lovell Park Hub - Mental Health Wellbeing Scheme

I attend Huddersfield Fitness Fusion weekly, sometimes i cannot be bothered to come out on an evening as dealing with stresses of homelife but the little motivation i have gets me out of the house and after attending Sophie’s class i feel GREAT!! The fitness routines kill me but i always feel 100% better when i leave!! Fabulous class, love the choice of music and variety of dancing involved. Some lovely ladies in the classes which makes it more fun!

Kathryn, Fitness Fusion Huddersfield - Active Communites

Love your classes Sophie, always a great workout!!
