Provide a few details about your fitness, background & home life?

I'm a mum of 3 and work from home. I enjoy going for walks and playing badminton. I am always looking for opportunities to take part in activities. I came across the yoga, badminton sessions through the boots & beards website and decided to give it a try.

By taking part in the fitness activities have you felt any improvement in certain areas of your life?

I felt isolated at home after pandemic, this was an opportunity to get out of the house and go back to some normality. By attending the sessions my fitness and mental health has significantly improved. I feel more confident going into a sports centre/gym and possibly joining up for more sessions or getting a gym membership. The sessions have provided me with a chance to meet like-minded people and form new friendships. My badminton/yoga skills have improved by attending regularly and I have become more mindful of opting for healthier food choices in day to day life.

Please provide any other thoughts you would like to share?

I find the environment the sessions take place in very comfortable.

Please provide a testimonial comment that will help encourage others to join?
