From personal training to Pilates, there are plenty of ways to stay active at Hobsonville Point this winter.

Award winning personal trainer, Amelia-Jane Hoffmann, operates Fit, Gorgeous Brides on Station Street. The boutique studio caters chiefly for brides but also supports other clients who want to get in shape.

“Every Monday and Wednesday at 5pm and 6pm, the 6 Week Toning Challenge is held indoors,” says Amelia-Jane. “It’s small group training with a focus on toning with weights, body weight exercises and Pilates while also helping out with nutrition.”

And for those who like a workout in keeping with Hobsonville Point’s military roots, Boot It – Northwest runs boot camps several times a week.

“It’s a fun, effective and affordable way to enjoy group fitness exercise with no yelling and no egos,” says owner and trainer Melody Fullerton. “Each session is designed with five phases to maximise results - warm up, strength, high intensity, endurance and a cool down/stretch.”
