Fitness Class Traffic Light System
From Monday 6th February, both Hermitage and Hood Park Leisure Centres will be introducing a traffic light system to monitor fitness class attendances. Notice boards will be placed outside each of the studios and updated monthly highlighting each classes performance into either red, amber or green. Below you will see how we will be grouping the fitness classes into these colour. If your class appears in the red section then you can help by:
- Inviting your friends along to the class
- Ensuring that you have recorded your attendance at reception
Green-These are the most popular classes within our programmes attracting high levels of usage
Amber-These classes are popular and attract good levels of attendances
Red-These classes are currently running at lower than expected attendances and as such if they continue at these levels for two months or more we reserve the right to either cancel the class, change the type of class and/or instructor.
General Information
- The programme is subject to change and a number of classes may be removed from the programme over the summer and christmas periods, and at other times during the year. For the most up to date information, please check with the centre before attending.
- Once a class has started, you will not be allowed to join in.
- Please do not leave the class until the end.
- All sessions will start within 5 minutes on the advertised times.
