Tabata

​TABATA is a popular class which is hard work but good fun! 

What is it

TABATA is a specific version of Hight Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) involving 20 seconds of ultra-intense exercise followed by 10 seconds of rest, repeated continuously for 4 minutes (8 cycles).  In this class we repeat this process 8 times, working all around the body parts. 

TABATA can be taken at your own pace, you can extend the rests when you need to or work at a lower intensity as required.  The beauty of this is that it targets all fitness levels and abilities - you will notice your improvements on a week by week basis.
