Our Programme
Age with Vitality:
Live Group Weekly Online Classes + Personalised individual Programme
Delivered live to hundreds of care homes across the UK, our evidence-based Age with Vitality programme brings together fun, interactive group workouts and personalised online support with evidence-based testing for older adults.
​
Led by Joe and Tony Burns — complete with our signature kilts — every session is designed to boost physical health, mental wellbeing, and social connection, whether residents are living independently or within a care home community.
​
Our person-centred approach means residents, family members, and care staff can all engage safely, confidently, and enjoyably at their own pace.
Our Private Studio
Where Every Exercise is Tested with Care
Every exercise we deliver is carefully designed and tested in our private studio — purpose-built for older adult fitness.
​
We don’t just select exercises; we refine every movement to ensure it’s safe, enjoyable, and truly beneficial for real-world residents.
​
At Burns Gym, we take pride in crafting programmes with genuine care — because we believe older adults deserve nothing less.
Education Hub
Expert fitness advice to support healthy ageing.
Our Education Hub is home to a series of expert-led videos focused on improving fitness, strength, balance, wellbeing, and overall quality of life for older adults.
​
Residents, families, and care teams can access trusted, evidence-based advice, clear demonstrations, and practical tips — all designed to help older adults stay active, independent, and healthy.
​
Whether you’re just starting out or looking to maintain your independence, the Education Hub offers supportive, real-world guidance to help you move stronger, feel better, and live better.
