Reporter Northern Outlook

Anyone thinking of establishing a casino or a brothel is unlikely to get much support from the Hurunui Tourism Board as it looks to shift its focus from marketing to managing the region as a destination.
The move could potentially attract more visitors to the district through concentrating … View more

Lifestyle fitness is just enough activity to keep you fit for your daily activities - and maybe a bit more ;), because sadly, as we get older, if we don't gently push our bodies then we lose those abilities. The equipment is designed to be low impact or no impact enabling people with injuries to exercise. You will be guided through an activity/exercise programme to help with your needs - be that better balance, exercises to help you recovery from an injury, or heart and lung fitness so you don't get out of puff so easily when playing with the kids. I have over 35 years experience in the fitness industry, and as I have aged (and got injured) I realised that there was a need to 'fill the gaps' with specific exercises as no-one does all the things they ought to on a daily basis. Please feel free to contact Janine on 03 35 215 35 to find out more. Cost is $40 for an hour or $28 for half an hour. FB: Rose Cottage Exercise Coaching Gym or Exercise & wellbeing coach.
