I've formed a close bond with my fellow aqua participants, and we're like a family.”

Colin joined the Stour Centre to change his lifestyle, starting with gym sessions before discovering his love for aqua classes. Twelve years later, they remain a key part of his routine, helping him stay fit while forming strong friendships. For Colin, aqua isn’t just exercise—it’s a way of life.

HOW COLIN STAYS ACTIVE

Colin first started attending the gym at the Stour Centre three times a week before finding his passion for aqua classes. The sessions help him keep his muscles supple and support his overall well-being.

Beyond fitness, Colin values the sense of community he has built. His fellow aqua participants have become an extended family, and the friendly staff make every visit feel welcoming.

After each class, Colin enjoys heading to the café for a coffee and a chat with his aqua family. The social aspect of the Stour Centre is just as important to him as the physical benefits.

For Colin, staying active is about more than movement—it’s about connection, routine, and finding joy in the little things, whether that’s a great workout or the staff remembering his usual coffee order.
