FAQ
Q: Are these classes suitable for beginners?
A: Absolutely. Every Alchemy class — including Xpress — is designed to accommodate all fitness levels, from complete beginners to experienced athletes.
Our youngest participant has been 14, our oldest 75, and everyone trains safely at a level that suits them.
Your coach will demonstrate regressions (easier options) and progressions (harder variations) so you always feel confident and supported.
Q: How many Alchemy Xpress classes run each week?
A: At present we run 9 classes every week, with Core Fusion joining the timetable shortly.
Every session is 30 minutes, high-energy, coach-led, and designed to deliver maximum results in minimum time.

A: Alchemy Connected Fitness is far more than a 30-minute class studio.

• Strength & Conditioning programmes
