What’s on at Horizon this February

February is all about exploring our reasons why– why we stay active, why we challenge ourselves, and why we keep coming back to the activities that make us feel our best. Whether it’s joining a fitness class, swimming, lifting weights, or simply enjoying a social workout, this month is all about celebrating the motivation behind our fitness journeys.

It’s also the perfect time to try something new! From lifeguard training to outdoor circuits, there are plenty of opportunities to discover a workout that suits your lifestyle. Here’s what’s on at Horizon Leisure Centres this February.
