Fun fitness
These quirky fitness classes are all the rage this year. Who said exercise was boring?

Morning Gloryville is a global fitness sensation that allows you to dance the morning away and sip on healthy smoothies. With sessions across London, Liverpool, Leeds and Manchester, this unique class will have you raving without the hangover – win! www.morninggloryville.com
LAUGHTER YOGA
Based on the idea that our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake and genuine laughter, laughter yoga is a combination of deep breathing and laughter exercises, promoting both physical and psychological rewards. So as long as you’re willing to laugh, you’re sure to reap the benefits. We’ll take this over an hour on the treadmill any day! www.laughteryoga.co.uk
BEER YOGA
If you find that an ice cold beer helps you unwind after a long day, a new exercise trend is here to help take your inner calm to the next level. Beer yoga will see you putting those kale smoothies back where they belong and enjoying a pint without the guilt. The idea started in a German yoga studio where locals went mad for the idea of stretching during their drinking sessions. With beer yoga classes across the country, the goal is to make people stress-free and happy, and if that means you have to incorporate beer, then so be it! www.uk.funzing.com
