Manager’s Welcome

Our first few months back and we continue to welcome more of you back through our doors.  We really do appreciate your custom and thank you for your continued support in following our covid procedures. Rest assured we are doing everything we can to ensure a great Roko experience and I’d like to thank everyone for adhering to the new changes.

I’d like to take this opportunity to remind all of our members that the fitness team are still able to offer rokofit. appointments, so if you are in need of a new fitness programme, or a review of your existing one, please speak to a member of the team who will book you in. 

If you need more regular assistance to achieve your goals then perhaps our team of Personal Trainers can help. We welcome to Charlie and Adam, two new Personal Trainers at the club; their details can be seen below.

I hope everyone is getting used to the “new normal” in the swimming lessons, it's great having them back and seeing all the familiar faces along with swimmers making fantastic progress!! Can I just remind swimmers where possible to come swim ready?

Our Children’s Swim Academy is back with smaller class sizes and safety measures in place. We still have a few spaces left on the programme and Jennie Keast our Swim Manager will be happy to help and advise on this and can be reached on jkeast@nottingham.roko.co.uk

We have listened to your requests, reviewed our timetable and are adding more classes for your fitness and enjoyment. You will find additions to our timetable from week commencing 5th October including high energy classes now being livestreamed in new high quality sound.

We also have some news from our friends at Hot Pod Yoga and The Joshua Tree which you can find below.

Again thank you all for the continued support, I will look forward to seeing you throughout October.

Have a great month

With kind regards,

Julie Bowley & your Roko Team

Personal Trainers

Charlie Ball
“Hi everyone, my name's Charlie! I am here to help you achieve the personal goals you have always dreamed of accomplishing.

I started training myself when I was 17 years old; at that age I was never happy with how I looked so I decided to make a change. I focused my training on fat loss and was able to lose 2 and a half stone in 20 weeks and ended in what I thought was the best shape of my life. From then on, my main goal has always been to increase strength and muscle mass, as well as constantly improving my cardiovascular health and trying to stay somewhat lean. With all the knowledge I learned on my own fitness journey and through my personal training course I now want to focus on helping others with their fitness journey.”

Adam Mansouri
“With over a decade of experience within the fitness industry I’ve helped a vast variety of people lose weight, gain muscle & hit their goals in record time.

With success stories from general lifestyle, competitive bodybuilding, fitness models, health risk clients & even performance athletes - my experience means that I really can cater to all requirements.

I specialise in fat loss & muscle gain. I supply services including PT sessions, group sessions, tailor made bespoke training plans, tailor made bespoke nutrition plans & full time online coaching packages. Personally I have been on the national reserve 100m sprint squad, I have played semi-professional rugby, I have won numerous body building/fitness modelling shows but to this day, my biggest achievements all lay within my client's results. I don't just offer personal training services, I offer the chance to completely change your life & feel fantastic within yourself.
Start your journey today.”

Hot Pod Yoga

We can't wait to welcome you back to the pod and as you can imagine, things will look and feel a little different.  We have a number of different health and safety measures in place, designed to keep us all as safe as possible.  Here's a top line summary but if you want more info read here https://hotpodyoga.com/health/ 

• We’ll be limiting capacity in the pod to just 10 people per class
• Entry to the studio is through our back gate to minimise traffic through the main building and any waiting around at the main reception
• Showers are temporarily closed
• The pod and studio will be deep cleaned multiple times per day
• Our teachers are wearing masks while checking you in, your temperature will be taken upon entry and we ask that you wear a mask until you are on your mat
• We won’t be providing blocks or straps, but you’re welcome to bring your own
• Yoga towels are mandatory in all classes (bring your own or buy in the studio) if you are using our mats
• We won’t be doing any assists & adjustments or head massages just yet

For those enjoying your home practise with our online classes, you’ll be pleased to know that we’re going to keep these running alongside our in-studio timetable, they stream live from the West Bridgford studio.  You can continue to book via the website or app as usual.

Any questions at all, please just get in touch:  notts@hotpodyoga.com
