Health and Healing From Mother Earth

Monday 13th to Sunday 19th February 2012

For many of us it is increasingly difficult to keep our mineral and vitamin levels at the correct balance due to our stressful lives. Did you know that almost every skin condition that we may suffer from is partly due to a mineral or vitamin imbalance in the body?

Mud, salt and minerals… this week’s focus is on the products which occur naturally around us, their properties and how we can use them both in our food and on our skin to improve our health and well being. Health and healing from Mother Earth!

Join us for a unique break - a luxury fitness boot camp with some indulgent pampering too.

There will also be plenty of time for relaxation and pampering Ragdale style!  Take time to enjoy Ragdale Hall's unique Thermal Spa, pools, relaxation areas and other classes and activities.

She is ably assisted by Ragdale’s own holistic therapist, Danny Allman, who has travelled extensively around the sub continent practising and perfecting his Yoga skills.

Following a career in the military and a passion for teaching, Kerry rehabilitated her knee and back following sports injuries using Hatha Yoga and enjoyed sharing practise with others witnessing their health (both physical and mental) improvements.

Strictly Come Dancercise Break

A Three Night Break:

Thursday 22nd to Sunday 25th November 2012

You've watched the series, now try the moves.........and shape up at the same time!

Join us for a unique break, with dance as its theme, in the luxury surroundings of award winning spa Ragdale Hall.

This exciting three night all inclusive package is the brainchild of our Fitness Expert, Dean Hodgkin, who has worked with both Reebok and Nike in the past to create dance fitness programmes (City Jam and Rock Star) and sees great value in dance as a vehicle for toning up. Comments Dean, 'Not only will dancing burn calories, increase your flexibility and improve the efficiency of your heart and lungs, it’s a great way to push the fun factor sky high and so relieve the boredom of pure fitness-for-fitness-sake pursuits. Importantly, then, if you enjoy an activity you are much more likely to stick at it and see the results you desire, so this could be your best route yet to the body you know you deserve.'

Our activity timetable already includes a number of very popular dance workouts, such as BRAVO BROADWAY, MAGICAL MUSICALS, HOT SALSA FIT, DISCO GROOVE and POM POM but this is your chance to be amongst a small select group to try your hand at some new ones too all devised for you by our innovative team. 

There will also be plenty of time for relaxation and pampering, Ragdale style! Take time to enjoy Ragdale Hall's unique Thermal Spa, pools, relaxation areas and other classes and activities. Strictly Come Dancercise guests will join a small select group lead by Chris Chambers (Fitness Manager) and our team of experienced instructors.

Remember, you don't have to be a dancer to join us on this first-of-a-kind event, it's all about simply having a go at something new and putting the fun back into fitness. Dancing your way to a new, slimmer you will not only put a little sweat on your brow but will also certainly put a big smile on your face.

The package includes:

• Exclusive entry to a wide range of new dance based classes that are not normally available at Ragdale Hall (or elsewhere).
• Opportunity to join our many other dance based classes on the regular timetable
• Invite to specific evening entertainment activities 
• 40 minute Mud Envelopment 
• 40 minute Fresh Legs Treatment 
• Free goodie bag to include Ragdale Hall branded water bottle and gym towel plus a dance fitness DVD
• Accommodation, breakfast served in your room, three course buffet lunch and three course dinner and use of all the Hall's facilities including the Thermal Spa, pools, spa facilities and gym.

Prices for this set three night break:

Triple Rooms are available.
