STUDIO CLASS TIMETABLE

Health Suite:
To monitor capacity levels and to ensure members can socially distance from others, access to the health suites at Grand Central will be pre-booked only via your online account (accessible via the NEW Life Leisure app or our member login area on the website)

Online bookings

Due to high demand, you must continue to book your swim or studio class online in advance of arriving to a class to avoid disappointment.

We still are encouraging all members to book online for gym sessions; however, this is no longer mandatory. If you haven’t booked online prior to arriving for your gym session, you will need to check in at reception before heading to the fitness suite.

What to expect

Slides and splash pool

*Please note: slide customers must be a minimum of 1.1 metres tall and also be able to swim 25 metres competently. The slides are currently open on weekends only with extra sessions added during school holidays
