Changes ahead!

As of Monday 18th November, we are going to have significant changes to our timetable, ratio rules and some pricing amendments. This blog is to tell you all about these and to thank you for your feedback on these matters as our customers, allowing us to improve our services for you. 

What’s New? 

Quite a lot actually. We will only have 2 main sessions called Junior and Open Jump (before we had Junior, Family and Jump N Play) and the main rules for these sessions are listed below under the subheadings. 

Our park opening times will be changing slightly to: 

Monday to Thursday – 11am until 7pm

Friday – 11am until 8pm

Saturday – 10am until 8pm

Sunday – 9am until 6pm

Last entry to the park will be an hour before closing time and please make sure you arrive at least 20 minutes before your session time to allow for booking in and watching the safety video.

Junior Session 

Our junior sessions will run on a Monday to Friday 11am until 2pm and will be on a ratio of 2 juniors (U5’s) to one adult. We know this has been something that many of our customers have requested, so after a risk assessment, insurance discussions and many other operational and procedural plans we can now offer this service specifically for these sessions. 

In these sessions the juniors will be charged at £4 each and a supervising adult (it will be the adult’s responsibility to supervise their U5 children and not to play) will be £2. For this amazing price you will get unlimited play for 3 hours! Awesome. 

Open Jump Session 

This session is for everyone! The whole family can come and jump together and have a great time at Jump N Joy. The main point to note for this session is that the ratio is still going to be one to one for under 5’s because there are bigger kids playing at the same time and it is down to health and safety.  

Our Open Jump sessions will be charged at a flat rate of £9 for over 5’s, under 5’s will be £5 and the supervising adult for the under 5 will also be £5 for one hour of play. 

Quiet Session

We have always had assisted sessions at Jump N Joy, but we would like to be more inclusive of children and adults with a range of additional needs. Therefore, we have introduced our quiet sessions which will be on a Thursday night between 6pm and 7pm and on a Sunday morning from 9am until 10am. 

During these sessions the music will be turned down very low, our claw and tractor machines will be switched off, we will turn half the lights off and will provide the party room for any customer who requires this on their visit. 

Carers will be allowed on free of charge, but we do require them to show us ID to confirm they are the carer of the individual.  

Customer Feedback 

Here at Jump N Joy we are continually looking at our service and products and listening to our customers and we feel that these significant changes to the timetable will accommodate many more of you. 

If you have any questions or any other feedback, then please get in touch via our digital platforms or talk to the staff when you are visiting us.

Trampoline Fitness

Gym membership, running, fitness or sports classes and cycling are all great ways to get fit but not necessarily fun. It’s nearly impossible to jump on a trampoline without smiling (we challenge you to try!) and we would love you to come and jump here at Jump N Joy to try trampoline fitness, not only to smile and have fun but to get all the fantastic additional benefits. 

Kids Fitness

It’s not just good for us adults but for the kids too! Any physical activity that keeps them away from their screens, gets them moving and having fun is great! Win win with trampoline fitness. 

5 Reasons for Trampoline Fitness

Without further ado, here are 5 reasons that trampoline fitness is great for your body and mind . . . 

trampoline fitness

It will make you feel good . . . not just because you are having fun but it also releases endorphins (a chemical naturally, released in the brain to reduce pain, that in large amounts can make you feel relaxed or full of energy) in the brain (very scientific!)

It can help strengthen your pelvic floor muscles (both men and women!) which can help control the bladder, stabilize the hip joints and connect to the deep core.  

trampoline fitness

Helps build muscle. Because you need to balance and have a good posture when you are jumping on a trampoline, it makes your body develop your core muscles. The jumping action also builds strong bum (gluteal) muscles, so less squats more jumps! 

Can help you lose weight. Obviously, a healthy diet is key to losing weight, but exercise is also a huge part of it. Click here to read about a Mum who lost 5 stones by jumping on trampolines. 

trampoline fitness

It’s fun. This means you are more likely to keep doing it, you look forward to doing it and you can be the child that you are or the one you once were (for an hour anyway). 

The Results are in . . .

The bottom line is that trampolining is fun AND it’s good for you.

Rebound Therapy

For my first blog post, I want to let you know how beneficial trampolines are to our health. We probably don’t realise that because we are having too much fun jumping around.  *chuckles*

So Joyce, healthy living you say?

Yes indeed my friends! According to NASA, they found that 10 minutes bouncing on a trampoline is a more efficient cardiovascular workout than over 30 minutes of running. Their report states that:

“For similar levels of heart rate and oxygen consumption, the magnitude of the bio-mechanical stimuli is greater with jumping on a trampoline than with running.”

It certainly isn’t an “Out of this World” discovery for NASA but for us and our Fit-N-ess buddies especially, we are jumping with joy knowing this. Houston, we certainly don’t have a problem. Burning calories is just one of many benefits Trampolines can offer to you as a regular user which brings me to the main topic of this post- Rebound Therapy.

What is Rebound Therapy?

Good question. Rebound Therapy was founded in 1972 by Eddy Anderson which uses trampolines to provide opportunities for movement, therapeutic exercise and recreation for people across the spectrum of special needs. This therapy is more than just for special needs individuals or disability trampolining with the potential benefits being outstanding for anyone such as:

 

 

Upon my research of Rebound Therapy i was simply impressed at the level of commitment and effort that has gone in to establishing this Therapy and providing their knowledge and service to people throughout the UK which got me thinking… Maybe i should ask my Jump N Joy family if they are interested in having their very own Rebound Sessions right here in Alloa, Scotland?  Let us know if you are up for a round of Rebound, your girl Joyce can make these things happen ;)… Until next time.
