PT in the Park - FREE exercise and fun!
What is PT in the park all about?
PT in the park is a free 60min workout run by Focus and support of local personal trainers, instructors and fitness industry students.
PTIP is every Saturday - starting at 9am & finishing at 10am.
What is our mission with PT in the park?
PT in the park is a registered charitable trust and we provide a free opportunity for anyone to participate in regular group training.
What do we do?
Each session has a brief introduction, specific warm up activities, drills and/or games for 5-15mins. Then we get into the workout for 10-40mins depending on the overall program. Each session closes with a cool down, stretching, recovery phase for 5mins.
First time?
If you are thinking of coming along, please do ☺
Introduce yourself to one of our friendly helpers or trainers and let us know of any injuries or issues, which may effect your ability with exercise.
We will offer help to modify movements or provide options which are suitable for you.
I would also suggest to go at your own pace, have fun and stick with what you are comfortable with for your first few weeks.
Great to see more kids coming along to PT in the park :)
Just a friendly reminder that its best for any kids under the age of 16 to only utalise the games we do at PT in the park, bodyweight options and leave any resistance work we do until over 16yrs old.
We will run a dedicated kids section during summer only.
What else do we do?
We often organize regular events throughout the year such as fundraising events for Dogwatch, SPCA Canterbury, meeting anyone keen to do Parkrun, themed sessions.

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

Poll: Have we lost our "Clean & Green" edge? 🌏
The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?
What’s your take? Are we doing enough to look after our backyard? Is it time for a new slogan? 💬

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
