RATHDANGAN DRAMA

10=A0 a.m. The classes will be suitable for complete beginners or those more advanced. The classes are about strengthening all the muscles and joints that we often neglect. A play area is also present if you have a toddler you would like to bring along. Classes will be €49 for six weeks, progressing onto more intense classes. This will ease you back into exercising on a regular basis. For more information, or to book a place, phone Sarah at 087 0627563.
