We train in the dark!
Clocks might be going back but we still train. In the dark. And in the rain and the wind and the hail. Winter sessions do test your mettle but they're also a heap of fun. Once you're wet you're wet, right?
We'd love you to come train with us. It's completely FREE. We train Tuesday and Thursday 6pm-7pm (possibly soon to be 5.45pm over winter months) and Saturday 9am.
Summer bodies are made in winter!
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
