    What to expect:

    This is a structured strength and conditioning class to boost your mood, get strong and help you to explore exercise and movement safely and joyfully. I incorporate mindfulness into my coaching so you can develop self compassion, body awareness and pacing to manage your energy.


    Class Structure:

    • Circuits-style class features 3 rounds, each with 10 unique stations.
    • Warm up and cool down are the same each week for predictability and familiarity.
    • Each station is clearly numbered and labelled.
    • All exercises will be demoed and can be adapted to suit varying fitness levels and physical requirements.
    • Explore compound movement patterns to build strength and cardiovascular fitness while integrating mindfulness to help you connect with your body, feel good, and have fun.


    Accessibility and Health:

    I strive to make all movement as accessible as possible. If you have specific accessibility needs or accommodations you require (whether physical or neurological), please email info@brinnydoes.com at least 1 week before the class so I can best support you. Please also get in touch beforehand to inform of any injuries you have.


    About Brinny's approach:

    As a neurodivergent and non-binary individual, my mission is to help the queer community find joy and build confidence through movement and exercise. All of my classes prioritise wellbeing, ensuring a safe, judgment-free, and affirming environment where everyone feels seen and valued.

    • Make sure you wear what you feel comfortable to move in and some shoes that support your feet.
    • You can get changed on site if you arrive a little beforehand.
    • Please bring a bottle of water if possible and whatever else you feel you need.
