Timetables, Facebook & Fundraising

First of all, the new timetables arrived in store this morning and they look great, so remember to drop by and pick up your copy, and pass one on to your friends, too.
Last week we also changed our Facebook URL. While the other one still works, this new one is much easier to remember and simpler to direct your friends to. Our page is now located at facebook.com/charlenesptstudio. Remember to like it if you haven't already.

The Gosforth timetable has been finalised, although the start date is still to be confirmed. We have some favourites from both the adults' and children's classes: Messy Play, Mini Footballers, Zumba-cise and more (full timetable below). All classes will be held at The Play Station (The Play Station, West Avenue, Gosforth, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE3 4ES) on Fridays.

Friday
11am-11.45 Mini Footballers
12pm-12.45pm Adventure Play
1pm-1.45pm Dancing Tots
4pm-4.45pm Street Dance (4-6 yrs)
5pm-5.45pm Street Dance (7-10 yrs)

6pm-7pm Zumba-cise
7pm-8pm Hip Hop Aero

This Saturday (2nd April), we will be holding a Bake Sale in the back of the shop, and selling raffle tickets to raise money for new equipment for the children's classes. If you like delicious cakes and biscuits, then make sure you drop by. The bake sale will be running from one until five, and raffle tickets can be bought from the shop at any time for 20p each or £1 a strip.

If you want to know what you could win, then look no further. We have two draws, one for adults and one for children. First prize is either 2 personal training sessions or 5 children's classes, second is a £10 Paolas gift voucher for both draws, and third is a bottle of wine or a children's toy.
For a chance to win, make sure you drop by the shop and by a ticket or two. And the more you buy, the better the chance you'll win.

Just to remind you, the Fit Camp for May is still half price, so get in quick to take advantage of this fantastic offer.

New Stock

First of all let me apologise for missing last week's blog post as I happened to be on holiday. While I was away we recieved a fantastic selection of new stock, so I just thought I'd let you know if you hadn't dropped by and seen it already.
First of all we have some brand new fitness equipment to accompany the fitness classes - Dyna-Bands, a fitness/exercise aid to tone, strenghen and condition the entire body, skipping ropes, and Gliding, a complete buns and legs workout.
To help you relax after a hard workout, or just to pamper yourself, we now have a much larger selection of bath bombs and luxury soaps. Perfect for gifts or just a special treat for yourself.
We also have a fresh stock of leather handbags direct from Italy.

For the little ones, we have loads of new toys and other fun things in store, from Beyblades to Zoobles. Star Wars toys, Draco Spin, Bakugan, and Nerf Guns for the boys, and My Little Pony and FurReal Friends for the girls. We also have playdo, jokes and gags, and Gelli Baff, for endless bathtime fun.

The new timetables should be with us soon, along with the timetable for Gosforth.

And if you haven't tried messy play yet, come along and try your first session for free! Paint, gloop, sand and water, spaghetti and all kinds of good, messy fun.

Just a note to say that Paolas' website is temporarily down, but it should be up and running again soon.

Fantastic Deals

We've got a fantastic new deal for you this coming May. May's Fit Camp will be running at half price, only £175 for 3 hours of training, 5 days per week, plus an hour's weight management, a free heart rate monitor and a free Fit Camp T-shirt. This fantastic offer is only available for May, remember, so get in touch as soon as you can if you want to take advantage of it.
If you can't manage Fit Camp in May, we will also be running these camps every month until September, but at the standard price of £350. It may sound expensive, but it's still a steal for the amount of training you get.

Unfortunately the Meditation and Indian Head Massage workshop for March has had to be cancelled, but more workshops will be running in the future. Check the website, like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter to get the latest updates (links at the bottom of the page). The Meditation classes have also been postponed until September, but you can still get in touch to register your interest.

The classes in South Gosforth will be going ahead shortly, and will be running on Tuesdays and Fridays. The timetable will be posted on the website shortly, so make sure to check it out if you're from that area.

The new timetables are almost complete and will be out soon. Drop by the shop to pick one up so you know all the latest times and dates.

Spanish Class has had to be postponed, but it will resume shortly so don't hesitate to call and put your name down: places are filling up fast!

Italian class is well under way and thoroughly enjoyed by attendees.

Lastly, the Discount Vouchers 4U booklets are now in store, drop by and make a purchase to get yours.

Keep Fit!

It's well into 2011 and time to start thinking about getting fit and ready for those summer holidays on the beach (despite what the weather last week might have us thinking, spring is nearly upon us).
To get you fit, healthy, and feeling great, we have the all-new Fit Camp.
For £350, you get four weeks training, three hours a day, five days a week, with an additional hour spent doing weight management.
At the start and end of the course, you get individual fitness testing and lifestyle analysis, to help you keep track of your progress.
Fit camp includes a personalised training program, a free heart rate monitor and a free Fit Camp T-shirt.
The camp begins the first week of April (and the first week of every month after that, until September) and can be paid in full before or on the first day of attendance, or in two instalments, to be completed on the first day of attendance.
Although the shop has no card machine, you can pay by card through our secure online payment system, operated by Paypal, on the website.
Give us a call or send us an e-mail at charlenemelling@charleneptstudio.com if you're interested.

In other news, the new timetables will be starting soon and will be finalised some time this week. Don't quote me on this, but we're also setting up some classes in Gosforth sometime over the next couple of months. Keep an eye on the website for more details if you live or know people over that way.

A new discount book for the Whitley Bay area, Discounts 4 U, was realeased last week, and it features discounts for both Paolas and PT Studio, as well as partner company Scrumptilicious Cakes. Pick up your copy at the Whitley Bay Playhouse, local metro stations or various shops around Whitley Bay.

Saturday 19th March - Indian Head Massage Workshop, book up soon!
Saturday 16th April - Children's Easter Party, Easter fun with the Easter bunny.
April - Meditation Classes, Tuesday 7-7.45am & Wednesday 7-8pm
