Charity leap for boogie bouncers
Chesterfield fitness studio, Studio 44, will be taking part in a synchronised ‘Boogie Bounce-athon’ to raise money for Sports Relief at Chesterfield College on Sunday 18th March.
The studio are looking for 200 fun and fitness fans to join two giant charity Boogie Bounce classes – exercising to music on mini trampolines. Organisers hope that, as well as raising up to £10,000 for charity, participants will discover a love for Boogie Bounce and become regular ‘boingers’.
Boogie Bounce is an exclusive exercise programme offering cardiovascular, toning, fat burning and strengthening benefits with low impact on the body. NASA agrees that ‘bouncing is the most efficient and effective exercise yet devised by man’ – while studies by NASA scientists have shown that bouncing is 68 per cent more effective than jogging but requires less effort.
Boogie Bounce was the very first ‘exercise to music on mini trampolines’ to launch 21 years ago. It now has 55,000 participants across the UK and is expanding worldwide.
The event at Chesterfield College will see instructors lead 100 bouncers at a time through fun routines in two separate hour-long classes.
Daniel Harries, Owner of Studio 44 at Markham Vale, said:-
“Boogie Bounce is suitable for all shapes, sizes, ages, levels and abilities.
“Because the exercise is low-impact, it offers cardiovascular, toning, fat burning and strengthening benefits with far less chance of injury than other forms of working out.”
He stresses:-
“Don’t worry if you haven’t exercised for years or are a complete newbie. Each trampoline can comfortably take up to 25 stone and comes fully equipped with a T Bar handle for extra stability and confidence – thereby suiting all levels of ability. And bouncers can work entirely at their own pace.
“Guest instructors from nearby towns will also be on hand to offer plenty of help, encouragement and guidance.
“If I can get just one person exercising regularly as a result of our bounce-athon it will have been a great success.”
Daniel’s Sport Relief Boogie Bounce classes will run from 10am to 11am and 11pm to 12 noon at Chesterfield College, Infirmary Rd, Chesterfield S41 7NG.
