Get Funky, Fit and Lose the Fat – Arriba!
The fastest growing health, wellness and education club in the UK - has announced a partnership to take fitness programmes to a new level.
Arriba! Wellness Clubs has joined forces with Funky Pump Fitness, in a move that has started a new exercise craze, which is sweeping throughout South Wales.
The partnership promises to help people burn up 800 calories while hitting the dance floor to pumping DJ-led beats.
With live DJs and nightclub venues, Funky Arriba is no ordinary exercise and fitness programme. It promises to put the element of fun back into exercise, with a workout that offers genuine results, teamed with expert guidance on how to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle.
Jonathan Gibbs, Arriba Director, is excited about this collaboration:
“This unique partnership combines fun, exercise and simple health and lifestyle information in a format local people can enjoy.”
“The combination of Arriba's structured 12 week course and Funky Pump Fitness refreshing approach to exercise is changing the way people think about, and enjoy, health related activity. The courses and classes are easy to understand and participate in. To put it simply, it's a recipe for fitness success.” – Added Jonathan.
The Funky Arriba classes involve some weights, resistance bands and punch bags, with an instructor providing all the directions and a live DJ providing the music.
The result is an electric atmosphere that suits those starting out on a new regime, and experienced exercisers. The classes are designed to allow the individual to decide how hard they work.
The Funky Arriba partnership has also created two daily drop-in centres for people to get one-to-one help, at a time that suits them.
Arriba Wellness Clubs offer a range of 12-week courses, where members have group and personalised advice on their diet and weight goals. Classes typically last 45 minutes a week and cover a range of different diet and lifestyle subjects each week.
Each member receives a full body analysis - using Arriba’s clever Tanita Scales equipment - to give them a full understanding of their hydration, weight, body muscle and fat percentages.
At the end of the course, members have the chance to win up to £300, with prizes awarded for biggest weight loss, largest loss of percentage body fat and the highest number of inches lost.
Funky Arriba classes take place across South Wales, with venues in and around Swansea, Cardiff, Port Talbot, Neath and Llanelli. For more information on locations and timings, visit www.funkyarriba.co.uk or call 07970 690 299.
