Check your email on the day before the class

Suitable sports attire is recommended

Comfortable clothing is recommended for all sessions as the classes are held outdoors and will involve some physical activity. Depending on the intensity of the class, you may decide on what you feel will be comfortable gear to wear, however, light clothing such as shorts, yoga pants, t-shirts, and sports shoes are generally the preferred option. There is currently not any facilities to shower or change at the venue.

Pack some essentials

While you don’t specifically need any particular items to take part in our classes as usually all equipment is provided unless otherwise stated, there are a few things that will make the overall experience more pleasant and enjoyable. Here’s what we would recommend:

Towel to wipe up signs of your hard work
Filled water bottle to help you stay hydrated
Jumper or jacket in case it gets cold or windy during cooler months

Arrive at the park early

Try to arrive at least 15 minutes before the start of the class and make your way towards the Sports Hub at the Northern end of the venue. Look for the Hong Kong Observation Wheel staff wearing the official black polo shirt uniform who will take your attendance. Make sure you have your confirmation email ready for them to scan.

During the class

All our classes are conducted by experienced and certified fitness trainers. Remember to follow all their instructions carefully. If at any time you feel unwell or something isn’t right, take a break and catch your breath, and if you still feel unwell alert a member of staff. Most importantly, while your workout is meant to help you achieve your health goals, it is also important to have fun and enjoy yourself.

After the class

After all physical activity, it is always a good idea to hydrate so drink plenty of water. Do feel free to stay at the park, do some more stretching or enjoy some of the food and beverage on offer.
