General Exercises

These short routines can help you get moving and feel more confident on your feet, wherever you're starting from.

These general exercise videos offer gentle, accessible routines that you can do at home, at your own pace. They focus on everyday movement to support strength, mobility, and wellbeing - whether you’re just getting started or looking for something to keep you active between classes.

The videos are suitable for most people, including those who are less confident or returning to activity after a break. You don’t need any special equipment - just a sturdy chair, comfortable clothing, and a space where you feel safe.

Start slowly, listen to your body, and remember that even a few minutes of movement can make a difference.

Safety Tips:

• Clear your space of trip hazards
• Keep water nearby
• Hold on to a stable surface if needed
• Stop if you feel dizzy, unwell or in pain
