Weekend Camps on a regular basis

Got a spare weekend? Train to your full potential with individual training plans to meet your needs and help you reach your goals.

This is what Deborah said after the last clinic – 7th to 8th of October – ‘Brilliant weekend camp with Victoria Hayton – Vikki introduced us to passage – that was another first. Jack meanwhile drew the short straw and had thick fog for his lessons but he tried very hard despite zero visibility’.
