Tuesday 31st October 2023

Halloween is just around the corner and it’s time to start thinking about your costume. Do you want to be a classic vampire or maybe a spooky ghost? How about a superhero or a character from your favorite movie or TV show? The possibilities are endless!

Make sure your costume is unique, creative, and sure to impress, but don’t forget, we will still be training hard to work off those Halloween treats, so make sure your costume is comfortable and practical enough to wear whilst training.

You never know, you might just bag the prize for the best costume! So, gear up for a spooktacular Halloween, dress to kill, and let the fun begin!

Prizes will be awarded to the best dressed at each class:
