Helping you embrace a healthier lifestyle
Starting on 18th September 2024, the programme offers two new swimming sessions—Group A from 1pm to 2pm and Group B from 2pm to 3pm. These sessions offer 12 weeks of fitness and realistic weight loss, all while enjoying the facilities in your local community.
Gloji focuses on helping you embrace a healthier lifestyle, improve your mental well-being, and move towards your personal goals.

Free swimming sessions
Gloji’s exercise programme includes swimming sessions that offer a fun and low-impact way to get fit. Specifically for individuals who can swim 25 metres unassisted, these sessions will help you improve your swimming technique and fitness in a fun, relaxed environment.
Professional instructors
A professional instructor will be there to guide you through each session, ensuring you get the most out of your time in the pool. These sessions are a great way to connect with others in your community while working towards your goals.
To help keep you on track, there will be a weigh-in at the start, giving you a clear goal to work towards during the programme.
Delivered real, meaningful results
Gloji’s exercise programme has delivered real, meaningful results for Isle of Wight residents.
One member lost 6.8% of their body weight, or 6 kilos, in just 12 weeks (about 3 months). Another lost 5%, shedding over 5 kilos. These results are more than just numbers—they reflect real improvements in health and well-being. If they can do it, so can you.
