Shape Up Studios, situated in the picturesque sailing town of Lymington, Hampshire, was founded three years ago by Annabel Glynn. Renowned for providing a unique fitness facility that benefits a wide range of individuals with their all-inclusive approach, an extensive choice of classes and a highly qualified team of exercise professionals, Shape Up Studios has the ability to ensure life changing results to their members.
Having had proven success with their regular format across the board including Power Plate classes, HIIT circuits, yoga, Pilates and the state-of-the-art Spin studio, their new venture promises even more. Welcome to Bootcamp at Shape Up Studios.
The Bootcamps are tailor-made to accommodate individual participants. The pre-camp consultations, and preparation ensure that in addition to existing levels of fitness being considered, personalities, goals, likes and dislikes and any anxieties and fears (which may have created barriers to someone’s ability to try more challenging pursuits in the past) are taken into account during the meticulous planning of the activity schedule.
Bootcamps can be sport or event specific, catering for small groups with a common purpose or a mixed Camp where everyone is nurtured individually.
These are Bootcamps to suit all with regard to lifestyle, work and family commitments and of course, budget! Available as 5 day Bootcamps with an additional option of nutritious meals provided, and residential facilities utilising some of the New Forest boutique hotels if needed to one day Baseline Bootcamps.
The latest innovation, the ‘Weekend Bootcamp’ is already proving to be very popular. Jean Urwin, interior designer with Willow in Lymington, the most recent ‘weekender’ said, “From my one-to-one pre-Bootcamp meeting I was reassured that this was going to be amazing. This is no one-size-fits-all bootcamp. The Shape Up team go out of their way to support you as an individual to achieve your very best. Yes, it’s tough as it should be but you leave feeling totally empowered to take your training further and their support doesn’t end on the last day!”
Ann Frampton, a director of Action for Charity and Fundraising Event Manager, kept a daily blog recording her 5 day Bootcamp experience. “Day four, Bootcamp finished and I cried! But it was tears of joy! All week I haven’t been able to do walking planks – but this afternoon thanks to the amazing Kenna who was training me I did 10 walking planks!! I just burst into tears after I did them. Not sure whether it’s the whole effort of the four days hitting the emotions but I did feel overwhelmed. Totally recommend Shape Up Studios, Lymington. They have been amazing this week.” Ann went on to say, how the Bootcamp energised her and it made her realise she could do more. “I didn’t think I was fit enough but now have the confidence to try different things. It pushed me hard and now I want to go out of my comfort zone! I would definitely do another Bootcamp. You’ve got to put a lot in and want the change but the instructors are there to help and motivate. They give 100% but you need to as well!”
“Ann took part in one of our first Bootcamps and she has been a real inspiration to others since,” commented Annabel Glynn, managing director at Shape Up Studios. “We have spent time listening to Ann and our members, we are very excited about the changes we have subsequently made to refine and improve this experience. 2015 is the year of the Bootcamp!”
Fitness expert and Bootcamp manager Kenna Hockley added, “The product we are offering is not simply another generic, run-of-the-mill bootcamp – it’s a life-changing and life-enhancing experience. As a fitness professional I recognise that the majority of people need specific motivation to really affect a change in their attitudes to exercise, achieving goals, diet and lifestyle and ultimately, general belief in themselves. Our team provide Bootcampers with all the necessary tools to improve and excel. The end result will enable people to make long term commitments to fitness using everything learned during their time with us. An ‘I can’t’ person will become an ‘I can!’ with our expertise, guidance and support.”
Making your bootcamp experience run smoothly is the role of Gill, Bootcamp co-ordinator. From the initial point of contact, to behind the scenes support and client care, Gill aims to anticipate your needs, and ensure your focus is where it should be. “Our Bootcamp experience could seriously improve your health. I have seen clients have a complete change to their mentality in how they think about their health and fitness. It’s my favourite observation, that ‘light bulb’ moment when someone realises they can do this! We see this potential on a daily basis. Thanks to the work of Kenna and our team, individuals achieve so much.”
Bootcamps at Shape Up Studios are located in the scenic coastal town of Lymington Hampshire, on the edge of the New Forest National Park. To allow participants to enjoy outdoor fitness activities, the Bootcamp team utilise this stunning natural environment that is right on their doorstep.
