From drumstick workouts to laughter yoga, there’s a chance for people to flex their muscles in style and get stuck into more than 60 fitness sessions at Scotland’s boutique health and wellbeing festival.
With slots available to book now, attendees are being encouraged to swap drumstick lollies for a cardio Drumstick session inspired by the infectious, energizing fun of playing the drums, or to unleash their inner joy with a spot of laughter yoga.
Workout favourites like spin class, Clubbercise, hot yoga and Pilates will also be available, while more adventurous festival goers can give Parkour - also known as free running - a go or get to grips with mindfulness for an enhanced sense of wellbeing.
Retired Commonwealth cyclist Charline Jones will also be on hand to share how she took her experience in professional sport into the world of at-home workouts and will put the people of Glasgow through their paces with a special high-intensity session.
Elsewhere, live cooking demos, a Sweaty Betty pop-up shop and an Aloe Vera shot bar will complete the jam-packed one-day event.
Emma Lynch, Sweat It Festival Director and Creator, said: “Sweat It is all about creating a relaxed and welcoming space for fitness enthusiasts, as well as anyone looking to improve their lifestyle. It’s a real feel-good event.
“We wanted to have fun with the programme so there’s all sorts of activities to get involved in this year. Don’t be shy – we would encourage anyone that’s interested in spending the day getting fit and having fun to come down to Sweat It.”
One day ticket provides gym enthusiasts and those looking to get back into fitness with unlimited exercise classes, an abundance of nutritious food and drink offerings and some of the best wellbeing products Glasgow has to offer.
Sweat It Festival will take place between 12pm and 6pm on Sunday 19 May. Tickets are available to buy now at: https://sweatitfestival.co.uk/tickets.
