The Lido

RPB_CNLL-LIDOlogo_v1.jpgSet in safe, secure and well-maintained grounds overlooking the countryside our 25m pool of crystal clear water has a water slide at the deep end.

The weather shouldn't be a deterrent as the water is heated to a minimum of 27° C, so even in a traditional British summer you can take the plunge and enjoy a swim. Toddlers can get their first experience of outdoor swimming in the separate toddler pool.

RPPB_CNLL_LIDOpool1_v1.jpgBut it’s so much more than just a swimming pool. There is a large fenced lawn with three towering sycamores providing dappled shade – it’s ideal for sunbathing.

You don’t even have to swim! You can just watch your children or grandchildren swimming (something you can’t do at many indoor pools.) Why not bring your own picnic (no glass is allowed in The Lido) or buy your lunch at the poolside café? You can even hire The Lido for your own private party or corporate hospitality. There are several parking spaces and ample free parking in nearby Albion Street or, in the spirit of healthy living, you could walk or cycle to The Lido.

The Leisure Centre

The centre boasts a 4-lane 25-metre swimming pool, a 4-court sports hall, the fully-equipped Mill Health & Fitness Studio, an aerobics studio, squash courts and ample parking.  The centre offers a wide variety of sports and swimming courses, as well as children's parties and creche sessions. There are plenty enthusiastic staff  with  experience and knowledge who are more than happy to help. The link to their web site is below.

Personal Training
synergy.jpgSynergy Physical Training is different from the usual gym-based workouts. Partners Matt Jeffrey and Danny Wilson offer personal training and classes aimed at improving the movement and strength of the whole body. "We don't aim for weight loss but it happens anyway, as a by-product of getting the body moving the way it should do, getting alignment and posture right," said Matt.

Synergy is open for business at Unit 12 on the Elmsfield Industrial Estate in Chipping Norton.

Looking around the studio you see a lot of space rather than the serried ranks of electric machines that dominate modern gyms. "That's deliberate," said Matt, "because we are much more about flexibility and full body movement, the exercises we do are aimed at groups of muscles and we need space for that."

Matt's specialism is strength and conditioning and Danny is going for a Level 4 Masters Instructors qualification in back care. When he attains that he will be only the second person in Oxfordshire to do so.
