Welcome to our Autumn Newsletter
As we move into autumn and the evenings start to draw in, we wanted to take a moment to welcome you to our latest edition of the Mode newsletter.
There’s plenty happening across the club, and this edition is packed with updates, news and information from all of our departments. From Fitness and Group Exercise to Swimming, Tennis, Padel, Kids Club, Membership and our Spa facilities, we’ve got lots to share with you.
Autumn is a great time to get back into a routine, make the most of everything Mode has to offer and perhaps try something new. Whether that’s joining a new class, booking a session on court, getting back in the pool or simply enjoying some time in the club, we hope you’ll find plenty of inspiration in the pages ahead.
Thank you, as always, for being part of the Mode community. We look forward to seeing you around the club over the coming months.

SHARE THE SPACE
As the club gets busier, we’d like to remind everyone to help make the gym a welcoming and enjoyable training environment for all members.
When using gym equipment, please be considerate of others and be happy to share between sets where practical. During busy periods, please avoid occupying multiple pieces of equipment at the same time, and return equipment to its correct place once you have finished.
If the equipment you need is in use, speak to a member of the Mode team. We’ll be happy to suggest alternative exercises or equipment to help you keep your workout moving.
We also ask members to be mindful of mobile phone use on the gym floor. Phones can be an important part of training, but please avoid extended phone use while occupying equipment that other members may be waiting to use. If you need to make or take a call, please move to a suitable area of the club where you can do so without interrupting other members’ workouts.
A little consideration goes a long way in helping everyone enjoy their workout.
