Pole is an excellent form of fitness that benefits a very wide demographic. The council's attitude is narrow minded and saddening.

No need for this to close. It's a great way for people to keep fit while having fun. Definitely better than sitting on the couch all day!

With classes so full, it is clear it is what the community want. So why on earth take this away from them. These fitness classes are empowering and give more than just physical fitness. Surely there is enough space and nights to satisfy both pole and yoga ??

Fitness should be a high priority for the council.

Please don't close Pole classes. They are so beneficial on so many levels!

Stop chipping away at people's lives. Look internally to make savings. Like the kit kats you have with your cups of teas at every meeting. Stopping them would save a local resource like a library or a pole fitness club .

Health and fitness are VERY important. People need places to achieve this. Do some research narrow minded people!

all fitness regimes need equipment, weights, trampolines, exercise bikes, rowing machines etc etc so what is the problem here, this discipline needs poles, what is difficult to understand?

When Bradford is being shamed as an "obese town " , to close any exercise class is criminal . This is a brilliant form of exercise for young people .

This class makes this specialist sport accessible and affordable for all. Surely promoting structure, discipline, hard work and physical fitness for those who cannot afford a gym membership fits in well with the vision of a community centre.

This is a well run and very popular class, it should not be forced to close.

Not only have these classes helped keep me physically fit they have been a lifeline to me through tough points in my life. The friends I have made have provided support, at times a shoulder to cry on, and a well needed distraction or laugh at others. Losing these classes will create a bigger impact of people's lives than just a loss of practice space. They provide a very valuable service to the local community.
