Emilia-Rossi-Blog-Virgin-Health-Centre-5 — These vibration machines are perfect for those wanting a low impact workout. They offer strength and cardio classes using these vibro machines.

Emilia-Rossi-Blog-Virgin-Health-Centre-7 — This is a quiet area for those who like to do their weights and cardio in a peaceful area.

They offer an impressive range of classes including dance style, body and mind, relaxation, cycle, weight and toning classes. They also include some interesting classes such as Barre and Antigravity Yoga.

I love their express 30-minute classes because I can easily do one of two of them in a row. For example, I enjoy doing a 30-minute Body Pump class followed by a 30-minute Pilates Reformer class and finishing the workout off with a relaxing slow Yoga class.

If I told you how much I was paying a week for this place, you wouldn’t believe me. Exclusive membership to the Virgin Active Health Centre is only $30 a week.

I love this place; it had changed my life, and I look forward to every class I book.
