Posting on behalf of a friend.



Malpas has a lady who does step classes at 5pm but there seems to be no interest at the moment. She said she will do the class even if there is just 3. She said it would be available to non guests. I have got to confirm times, days and prices and if at a reasonable price would anyone be interested?

There seems to be some confusion here! I have just spoken to Pelin, our member of staff who does the step aerobics, and what she is offering is step aerobics classes (max 9 people) at a day/time yet to be decided. The classes will be held in the hotel and there will be a monthly membership for the classes. All days, times, fees have yet to be confirmed.

Unfortunately I cannot put Pelin's private number on here. However, she can be reached through the hotel. 03926503000 Just ask for Pelin, Health Club. I will tell her to expect some calls but at the moment we haven't decided on the cost of the classes or the days/times.

Well it was Pelin I (the Captain's friend) spoke to. Her English wasnt perfect so some confusion has arisen already. She said to me she would do it for three (but maybe she said free - thinking I was a guest). The board in the Hotel was writing 5pm Step Class. I was going to contact either Sharon or Claire to confirm with Pelin what she was offering as it was a bit confusing.



Anyway lets hope we can sort something out at a reasonable price for non guests

7AM wow, not for me. 5pm would be better. Are you Scottish and jog and cycle round Catalkoy?

I suggest you ring the hotel and speak to Pelin. She will take a list of your names and numbers and will contact you when the days/times/cost has been decided. You can give her your preferred times etc so she can make a note of them and try and work out a suitable programme.

I tried and tried to make this available but had no luck! It is a wonderful way to exercise without getting all hot and sweaty!!! Onar used to do it once upon a time but now I just do it myself with my noodles on my day off. (The last sentence means just what it says before all you clever-clogs start making dirty comments!!)

Who created the noodle, sausage, sosis, spaghetti, it should have been in their name and they could be famous.

Went to see Pelin today but she seemed unaware of your suggestion that people interested in step do call her and she will take names and phone numbers and then she can arrange a time and price. She kept asking me how many people do I know that want to come, tried to explain I dont know anyone personally but just they have posted an interest on this forum. She said something like 200 lire per month, but no idea how many classes that would include and said if she wants people to come she should make it a reasonable price.



She also said no one had called her. So folks if you are interested can you please call her.

I would be interested, again, mornings after 8am (when kids have gone to school) - not at 200 tl a month though!!! I only pay 90 tl a month to go the gym up to 6 times a week if a wish. Not sure where some of these people get their prices from but I am sure if they priced their classes at a more realistic price they would get a lot more custom. Please let me know if anything materialises.

yes Ozangirl exactly. Im hoping the 2 english girls who work there can liaise with Pelin or her boss and say about the lower the price the more people will join. Can you call Pelin and see what reaction you get

Infact talking of stupid prices for fitness classes etc, I know this is diverting from the Malpas discussion, but I had a look at the Kids Gym in Bellapais and I couldn't believe how much they were charging - maximum 8 hours a month (2 one hour sessions a week) 185 tl per child!!!! I pay less than that for my husband and I to go to the gym a month. Sadly, my two kids who seemed really enthused at going will not be as I can't afford those silly prices.

I have been off for a week. I will go down and see Pelin this afternoon but if nobody has called then I presume she won't be starting the classes. Also as Pelin is a member of staff, she cannot negotiate a price without speaking to myself or the owner. I would say this looks like a non-starter as there are plenty of places around now who do aerobics.
