Happy New Year to you all!
Hope you had a fantastic Christmas and are ready for a brand new year with Brentwood Leisure Trust and the new range of activities and facilities we have in store for you.
We had great fun on the ‘Brentwood On Ice’ ice rink (as you can see by my
picture), and you still have time to enjoy the magical winter wonderland as it will be with us until the 21st January. The rink is open from 10am until 10pm, 7 days a week so don’t waste anytime, get your skates on get on down here before it goes!
I am personally very excited and happy to introduce to The Brentwood Centre, our new and long awaited Beauty Therapists, Diane and Jan with ‘The Beauty Bar’. Situated just off the Spinning Studio, The Beauty Bar will be operating flexible hours for the Brentwood Centre users, offering a wide range of treatments from facials to spray tans and false eyelashes. For more details and booking information, see page 12 and 13.
Also, new for 2012, we are launching our first ever family membership at The Brentwood Centre. For only £66 per month per couple, you can enjoy an all inclusive membership with unlimited use of the facilities….and on top of that you can add any of your children under the age of 16 for only an extra £10 per month. Check out page 5 for more details.
In this edition of the BLT Bitesize, you can also get a full listing of events and entertainment taking place up until April on pages 14 to 15, have an insight into yoga and its benefits on page 21, as well as the swimming timetables, group fitness class timetables and lots more!
As always I hope we at Brentwood Leisure Trust can support you through a happy and healthy 2012.

I’ve worked in the fitness industry for just over a
year now and it is everything I had hoped for as a
career choice. Its an enjoyable line of work which
complements me and many of my attributes I’ve
had since a young age.
I have always been a keen sportsman,
participating in football when I was younger,
then boxing and now my main supporting
focus is competing in rugby and ju jitsu.
Throughout my education I had a sporting
mind and always aspired to have a career
in the fitness industry, my hard work and
sporting achievements were recognised in
college when I received the sports personality
of the year award. To further my education I
took up level 2 fitness instructing course
and I am now fully qualified. In addition I
am currently training to become a personal
trainer and am also qualified in both first aid and customer service. If
you ever wish to ask me any questions which you may have then don’t hesitate
to speak to me as I am here to help and assist you to the best of my abilities.

I finished college in 2010 and decided
university wasn’t for me. Having always
enjoyed the gym environment and having a
passion for health and fitness I decided the
best career would be in the fitness industry
and decided to become a personal trainer.
I studied with C4Q Fitness at Seevic college
and have now attained a full level 2 gym
instructor certificate. I also have a personal
and keen interest in nutrition and diet.
I enjoyed all sports at school but my
sporting passion has always been rugby!
Unfortunately I sustained a serious injury
which prevented me from taking it further.
Now a fully qualified gym instructor and
progressing to become a personal trainer,
I maintain motivation to achieve my
goals as I plan to take my skills and knowledge around
the world to improve and compare the different aspects of sport,
training and theories to bring back with me as I grow and progress
up the leisure and fitness ladder. My career ambition is to help people
achieve their full fitness

Practicing Yoga brings the perfect balance between health and fitness, Yoga tones muscles, improves flexibility, flushes out toxins and reduces physical and mental stress.
My Dynamic Yoga Class incorporates a flowing style of Yoga harmonising breath and movement, which develops endurance and strength. Also I focus on restorative and yin yoga, which focuses on deep stretches for the joints and muscles, which encourage the nervous system to relax, which, relieves deep tension and replenishment of energy.
Classes are taught with modifications to ensure students approach the practice in a way best suited to their individual needs.
“Yoga is a way of life for me, I was hooked after my first class. It builds strength and flexibility as well as keeping the mind calm. I can’t stress enough how important it is to find the right teacher and Sonia is great. She pays particular attention to your alignment and posture while keeping classes different and fresh” Hayley.
Mummy and Baby YogaNew Mums can attend this class after their 6 week check. This fun yoga class allows mums to nurture themselves whilst spending quality time with their baby. Focus is on helping mums get back into shape, create a sense of wellbeing, alleviate aches and pains and combat fatique.
Yoga for babies means mummy helps baby explore simple movements which develops their co-ordination and motor skills. The tactile nature of the class enhances the bond between mother and baby, encouraging a relaxed and holistic interaction which can help colic and aid in babys sleep.
“I loved baby yoga because I was able to start to exercise again whilst spending uninterrupted time with my baby, also Thomas always slept so well after class” Jayne
Pregnancy YogaPregnancy yoga is suitable from 12 weeks onwards until the end of pregnancy. This gentle class is for beginners and experienced yoga students who want to relax, alleviate stress and discomfort for their ever changing body.
Yoga will enhance the pregnancy experience, cultivating strength, flexibility and breath awareness to prepare the body for labour. Focused attention on your pregnancy allows the mummy to connect to their baby and coming to class is a great way to feel part of a community of pregnant women.
“I had never practised yoga before I became pregnant so didn’t really know what to expect. I ended up really looking forward to class because it helped me to relax and I always slept so much better. A lot of the postures we practised I used during my labour and I was so pleased that I had been given so many ideas of ways to help cope with the contractions during the birth of my baby.” Jaki
