The Flin's Fitness Community 🙌🏽

Hiya,
After being asked about having a general FF community chat group, I thought I would try again to create one on the website. Within one week, there were some weirdo interlopers - spam advertising stuff ... you know the type! Ahhh ...the joys of Wix website ownership!
I have now realised that to chat needs to be super easy - ie readily available on our phones! WhatsApp have been doing community groups for a while now, so it seemed the best option.
You can scan the QR code above to request to join, OR
Join via this link: https://chat.whatsapp.com/L1p90EOCC0v8WrzYWCF8Cf
Will I be inundated with chat pinging? NO. The main point is to be able to broadcast important information about class changes or variations, or road closures near our venues, or info that might be missed on an email! People can't respond to these broadcast messages, but everyone can see them.
I'm already in an FF WA group, so what do I do? You are already added - I have added the small groups to the main community and you can still chat - PRIVATELY, within your existing group! Nothing will change.
What if I want to ask the community about something to do with classes? There is a "General Chat" group which anyone can join! If you want to get involved you are welcome, if you want to lurk - well, that's OK too! We are linked together via our love of group classes, and enjoyment of each other's company.
Of course, as with all groups, you will be able to mute or leave if you want to, at any time!
An example of a broadcast message for this week coming:
This week, on Thursday 26th, Tubbenden have to prepare the halls for an inset day and therefore our SWEAT. class and Rosie's Power Pilates will be held outside! I will prepare a beautiful outdoor space for Power Pilates, and make sure we are fully equipped for SWEAT.
Kelly is using the opportunity to have a Zumba Crew summer social instead of her class, so there is news of this in her FF Zumba WA groups.
On July 4th we will have an outdoor Stretch & Sound in Nature session, with Tracey and her sound bowls. Once again, I will create a beautiful outdoor space within the school grounds and we will see how this session feels outside at one with nature!
Cost: You will need a single class pass which is £8.50, or use your Group Unlimited membership, No other passes or memberships are valid for this special event.

🪭💨 FANS!!! 🪭💨
This week, I have purchased 4 new cool air units ... 3 will be sited at Tubbenden in the small hall upstairs and the other one will be for the hall at Westcombe - whilst we do have air con at Westcombe, the cool air needs help shifting around the hall!
Hope these will work better than regular fans, in keeping us cool while we are doing our Yoga and Pilates classes at Tubbenden!
