A NEW fitness programme aimed at teenagers has started running at Parklands Leisure Centre in Okehampton.

Every Monday and Thursday at Parklands, young people aged eleven to 15 are invited to take part in the new classes, which run from 3.30pm until 16.30pm.

The programme includes something for everyone from abs and core circuits to body weight exercises and even aerobics classes, all of which are fully supervised.

The first induction class costs £5 and subsequent sessions cost £2.50.

Jon Smith, contract manager at Parklands, said: 'We are really excited about our new junior programme and all that it has to offer to local teenagers in the community. It really will give attendees the chance to get to know other teenagers in the area and to enjoy exercise together.'
