Well, today is my business birthday! I’m celebrating my first year of business at The Unit Gym in Throckley. I’d like to thank all those women who have come along to the classes, supported me and added smiles to the place. I’d also like to thank those who continue to read my emails, blog posts […]

In any business, you have to keep moving forward and trying your best to provide a great service for your customers. So, it’s time for me to start providing a better service for you. When I say better, I mean even better results, better facilities, more choice of classes, an online fitness programme and more. […]
