FAQs / Information / Club Rules from Escape Health Club Skipton
Q. How do I join?
A. You may join online now or make an appointment with a senior member of staff at the club by calling us on 0844 504 5190.
Q. What do I need to bring with me when I join up?
A. A proof of identity (driver's licence or passport will also do), and proof of banking details. This can be either a copy of a cancelled cheque, a bank statement or an electronic pay slip. If you are a corporate member, please bring proof of your corporate identity.
Q. What do I wear?
A. Although you should be comfortable (wear light, breathable clothes that have been designed for physical activity and that you can move in), do have respect for your fellow gym-goers - guys, we don't want to stare at your naked chests, so wear a T-shirt. Wear only closed shoes such as cross-trainers or running shoes. You may want to also bring a top to keep you warm when you leave the gym.
Q. Will someone help me to get started when I get there?
A. Absolutely. All members go through an induction programme which involves a 60-minute consultation with a fitness professional to get you started.
Escape Classes
All classes may be booked at reception or by phoning in advance.
The class timetable is available from reception. All classes and instructors are subject to change or cancellation.
Q. I have never done group exercise before. Can I simply join in?
A. A firm favourite among our existing members, we have no doubt that you will love our group exercise classes. So simply grab your trainers and a sweat towel, dress comfortably so you can move, and make your way to a class of your choice. Get a timetable from reception. A member of staff will advise which class is most suitable for you.
Q. Do I have to pay extra for classes?
A. No. As a Escape Health Club member, classes are free and included in your membership.
Q. Some of the classes look like fun, but my coordination and balance are rubbish.
A. Some classes involve dance moves and require a little more coordination than others, but that doesn't mean they're out of bounds if you're all thumbs. Our fitness instructors will guide you through specific techniques. Rather than fretting about whether you can pull off dance moves or high kicks while keeping your ego intact, rather focus on what you enjoy. Try different classes until you find one that works for you.
Q. Which classes will help me to lose weight?
A Group exercise classes are excellent for weight loss, because they generally require a lot of energy and tend to burn lots of calories. Without getting too scientific, a good rule of thumb is to do classes and exercises that get your heart rate up for at least 30 minutes per session, at least three times a week. What's more, attending classes where the focus is on toning as well as cardio will improve shape and build muscle, which can help to rev up your metabolism.
