Trio offers free boot camp classes

Boot camp training is not for the weak, but for those who can endure it swear by the fitness benefits and the entire experience.

Boot camp sessions are organised by fitness instructors in parks, open spaces and indoor centres for groups including both men and women.

An Edenvale trio recently launched 24Fit boot camp classes at the Modderfontein sports complex.

Brandon Devereux, Ryan Meyer and Cardina Pereira said they decided to start a boot camp that will accommodate the Greenstone and Modderfontein areas.

They held their first session on January 10.

“We wanted to do start something that would involve the community of these areas because most things normally happen in the Edenvale area. We want people to be healthy and take care of their bodies,” said Brandon.

The boot camp classes are free and they do orientations so they can perform assessments before any of the classes begin. Ryan urged people to register first before they can attend any of their boot camp sessions.

“It is important that people register and come for orientation prior to them participating in any of our sessions because we need to do the necessary assessments before anyone can take part.”

Brandon said the boot camp is child-friendly, however they are still in the process of organising a class that will specifically cater for children.

“We want it to be an environment where parents can come with their children and let them be in their own class with their peers,” said Brandon.

He urged businesses in the community to get involved as they can use all the help they can get.

“The classes are completely free but we would appreciate the help in terms of sponsorship for the children’s area,” he said.

People can register on the 24Fit website www.free24fitbootcamp-brandon.co.za.

The next orientation is February 14 from 2pm to 4pm at the Modderfontein Sports Complex.

The boot camp classes are held every Monday and Wednesday from 6:30pm to 7:30pm, as well as Saturdays from 7am to 8am.
