Celebrating 25 Years of goPhysio
This year marks 25 years of helping people move better, feel stronger, and live more active, independent lives. To celebrate, we’re bringing our community together for something special.
25 hours of continuous Pilates.
25 classes.
One shared goal: to raise £7,500 for our local community.
Why we’re doing it
Every day in clinic, we see the difference movement makes. It helps people:
- Stay independent
- Recover from injury
- Build confidence
- Feel like themselves again
- Add life to years!
But not everyone has access to the support they need. This event is about giving back.
Where the money goes
We’re proud to be supporting Mountbatten Hampshire, helping patients and families across Hampshire receive compassionate end-of-life care.
Alongside this, we’ll also be contributing to local community initiatives, including:
- Shepherds Down School
- Baby Necessities
- Open Sight
- Community health projects such as defibrillator maintenance
Because movement, care, and support should be there for everyone – at every stage of life.
How it works
From Thursday 25th June at 2.30pm until Friday 26th June 3.30pm, our studio in Chandlers Ford will host 25 back-to-back Pilates sessions, led by our expert team. You can:
- Join a single class
- Take on a personal challenge of multiple classes or a night time – with a chance to win prizes by completing our challenge Passport.
- Be part of a team with a group of friends, family, business or sports club
- Or simply support the cause (by donating here)
Each hour has a simple goal: Raise £300 Together, those hours build something much bigger!
How to Get Involved
Whether you want to join a single class, take on a challenge, or bring a whole team, there are lots of ways to be part of goPhysio’s 25 Hours of Movement.
1. Join a Class or a Few!
One of the easiest ways to take part in our 25 Hours of Movement Challenge is to book onto any of the classes.
You can join us for just one class, come along with a friend, or book a few different sessions and make it your own mini challenge. It’s a great opportunity if you:
- Would love to support our fundraising challenge
- Have always wanted to try Pilates
- Are curious about Reformer, Mat, Chair or a themed class
- Fancy trying a different type of class from your usual
- Want to bring a friend along
- Like the idea of being part of something fun, active and memorable
All classes are open to different levels, with options suitable for complete beginners as well as regular Pilates participants.
To make it even more fun, we’re launching our special 25 Hours of Movement Passport. As you take part, you’ll collect stamps for completing different milestones, such as attending a class, trying a different class type, bringing a friend, joining an overnight or sunrise session, donating, buying raffle tickets, or completing a challenge target.
You could keep it simple and join one class, or set yourself a challenge:
🏅 3 Class Challenge
🏅 6 Class Challenge
🌙 Overnight Challenge
🏆 25 Hour Challenge – the ultimate challenge!
Completed passports will be entered into a free prize draw, with prizes and awards for some of our most dedicated participants.
Whether you come for one session, try something new, fill your passport, or take on a bigger challenge, every class helps us raise money for local charities and community causes as part of our 25th anniversary celebrations.
You can view our finalised timetable below and reserve your space in any class, or combination of classes, here.
2. Support Without Attending
You don’t have to take part physically to make a difference. You can:
- Sponsor a participant
- Donate to a specific hour
- Support our overall fundraising target
- Share the event with others
Every donation will help us support local people and community causes.
Our Goal
Each hour has a simple aim: Raise £300
However you choose to get involved, you’ll be helping us reach our overall target of £7,500+ and support our local community. Every donation, every share will help us get there!
More than just a class
This isn’t just about Pilates. It’s about:
- Community
- Connection
- Supporting others
- And celebrating 25 years of helping people live well
