A former professional dancer at the Royal Ballet School, who has acted as a personal trainer for Holywood star Kate Hudson, is opening a fitness studio at the recently refurbished Stroud Hotel.
POPfit founder Steph Burrows is bringing music-based and dance-inspired workouts to Stroud, which will combine strength, cardio and stretching.
Launched in London in 2018, POPfit collaborated with America actress Kate Hudson and activewear brand Fabletics and Steph’s studio soon became a popular workout destination offering a variety of different classes, with the running theme of music and having fun whilst exercising.
Steph, who is married to Razorlight drummer Andy Burrows and is also the creative director at the hotel, said: “My mission is to create workouts within a nurturing environment that focus on benefitting mental health as well as physical health. Working out together in a group class is motivating and whilst it can feel intimidating trying something new we are all about teaching classes that work for all levels of fitness so you can improve in your own time in with the support of the instructors.”
Classes will run Monday to Thursday with Steph being joined by Caroline Atkinson. POPfit classes feature an easy to follow dance cardio class, ass and abs; a low impact strength-based class, barre; a low impact ballet inspired workout, HIIT; a high intensity cardio class and yoga; a slower paced and yet strengthening flow.
“Caroline and I are so excited to bring POPfit to Stroud, after spending the last few years online, we are ready to be back in a studio, building a community and share a common mission to promote a healthy lifestyle for everybody at every level of fitness with our fun and innovative workouts.”
For January we are offering unlimited access to classes for £55.
