Covid update
**COVID UPDATE 4 JANUARY**
In light of the latest rules and guidance from the Government, all training is suspended until further notice.
For those already booked on Sunday's training, your booking will be rolled over to the next available class once training resumes. That of course means you do not have to race for a place when lockdown is eased!
PLEASE take care, stay safe, stay in touch on this group and we will see you all very soon.
Best regards
