Manager's Welcome
Welcome to your December newsletter!
It's been great to see so many of you in the club over the last couple of months, with many of you attending classes, making use of the spa facilities, working with the fitness coaches on the gym floor and relaxing in the club lounge with some light lunch or a coffee.
I know with Christmas just around the corner, this time of year can be incredibly busy… but don’t forget – we are still here to help in December and throughout the festive period! PLUS – with January just around the corner, now is the perfect time to beat the January rush and book in with a fitness coach to review your gym programme!
We have plenty going on in the club this month, so keep reading to really get the most out of your membership this December. You will also find a couple of gift ideas below, which may help you if you are picking your brains as to what to buy your loved ones!
We look forward to seeing you in your club during December, and all our best wishes for Christmas & the New Year!

Swimming Lesson Break at Christmas from Monday 19th December 2022 – Sunday 1st January 2023
As Christmas is approaching VERY quickly, the swim teacher team here in York are preparing for their well-deserved 2 week break from lessons! We want to remind all swimmers NOT to attend lessons from Monday 19th December – Sunday 1st January because there will be no one here to teach your children.
If you are wondering why you have paid for a full month for swimming lesson in December, but we are having 2 weeks of no swimming, do not worry! Our swimming lesson programme is based on 50 weeks of the year and the month payments are based on 50 weeks and dived by 12 months, so you are NOT missing out on 2 weeks. The 2-week break is already accounted for.
On behalf of the whole swim team and myself, we would like to wish you and your families a very merry Christmas and best wishes for 2023. We will look forward to welcoming all the swimmers back from Monday 2nd January 2023. Thank you for your continued support during 2022!
