Hi, I'm Sammy!
I created BLITZ By Harper with four pillars in mind; FITNESS. MIND. COMMUNITY. FUN. These are the cornerstones and something every BLITZ class represents. It is more than just a workout programme, it's a community, it's working out for the body AND the mind.
I discovered yoga in 2013 after years of strength and conditioning training left me wishing I could touch my toes. Through a consistent practice of yoga and meditation, I found the freedom to move in a way that I didn't think possible.
Along with improving flexibility, I've gained strength, balance and connection, both on and off my mat.

We programme each workout to allow you to work to your own abilities & pace, and our epic trainers are always on hand to provide modifications to exercises if required. The Blitz is all about community and so we encourage you to get stuck in as much as possible, challenge yourself, and see what you’re capable of!
It’s your choice as to whether you participate in each workout, but we’d always encourage you to get involved in as much as possible! Remember, it is a fitness retreat after all.
The coaches on your trip will programme as much variety as possible in the format, style and location of each of the workouts throughout the week. You can expect different training techniques such as functional strength movements involving sandbags and dumbbells, plyometric bodyweight movements and endurance training, boxing, team runs, HIIT circuits, and our legendary finishers! There will also be the option of a daily yoga and meditation session
