a safe, progressive approach
-
help rebuilding confidence after a wobble, illness, or time away from exercise
-
a clearer plan and specialist guidance
​
The full FaME programme is designed to be over 36 weeks, so, naturally, further programmes are available.
​
Alternatively, individuals can either join the membership for maintenance purposes or find a local class they can attend in person.
​
The aim is simple: to help you become stronger, steadier, and more confident, so you can keep doing what matters most to you.
