We, the undersigned, ask you lovely folks to please keep BODYSTEP and CXWORX classes on the timetable at Virgin Active Swiss Cottage.
A recent notice in the club said these classes are stopping after February 12, 2018. Yikes!
We love both programmes! They are taught by world class instructors, and many people have been attending them for years. The classes are full every week!
The alternatives offered can’t truly replace what we have. We feel the alternatives could fit without removing BODYSTEP and CXWORX. Please keep them!

I have been hearing from so many of you who rely on these classes for your mental health and physical routine. I am currently putting together a formal letter to the club management to show exactly how much these sessions mean to our community.

Seeing this kind of energy for our classes at Swiss Cottage makes me realize just how much this community relies on our daily routine. I started this because I could not imagine my week without these instructors and now it feels like management has to listen to us.

I can’t understand why CX, a 30 minute over subscribed class, would be dropped from the timetable. CX is a unique in offering a comprehensive core workout in half an hour. Surely a variety of classes is better for members?
Come on guys. These programmes are helping members in the long run. Not many programmes build community like Les Mills classes. They are one of the biggest reasons people come back to many gyms .
These are important classes for members in the difference in their types of workouts and should really be retained. There is an active group of participants who attend regularly and many others who come frequently when scheduling permits. Personally, subsequent to the major shifts in schedules at VA Swiss Cottage have found myself obliged to shift to the BS and BA pair and now view them as key parts of my weekend workout.
As a former cover instructor for BodyStep classes at VA Swiss Cottage over the past few years, I am very shocked to hear this decision. The classes were also full of satisfied and hard-working members. Cutting BodyStep and CX is not only unfair to the dedicated members and instructors at VA Swiss Cottage, but makes poor business sense from my understanding of how busy the classes have been.
These classes can’t be replaced with freestyle alternatives. Les Mills workouts are devised by highly experienced trainers and have scientific research behind their effectiveness. Members want and deserve workouts they can trust to get results.
Strep is extremely popular and oversubscribed every week. Membership isn't cheap but the value gets ever worse.....
Keep BodyStep and CX

Removing BODYSTEP and CXWORX... really? You want to save money on licenses for top quality workouts? Ok, then you are loosing me as a member. I'm going to a gym that invests in providing reputable workouts and where I feel my membership is being wisey invested. Good bye Virgin Active!
