Plan your next fun student event with us!

Unipol Group Fitness offers flexible options to suit your needs! Whether you’re planning a memorable event for your student group or fundraising for a great cause, we’re here to help make it happen.

We can help you organise the perfect class, just let us know your preferred time, location, and class type, and we’ll provide an instructor and venue to suit.

Here are some examples to get you started:

  • Private group fitness class at Unipol outside our scheduled timetable, just pay for the instructor.
  • Group entry to a scheduled class at Unipol, reduced cost/class for students to attend an already scheduled class.
  • Private Group Fitness Class at your college (one-off, or weekly)
  • Other custom options e.g. taster sessions.
